Help With ATI TV Wonder Tuner
Little help please? I bought an ATI TV Wonder Pro this weekend and it works great - for about 45 minutes. Then the picture degrades into mostly black and white and a bit wavy. At first, I thought it might be a signal problem, but if that was it, the picture would come back to normal when the signal cycled back up - but that never happens.
Instead, I think it may be a heat related issue - where the tuner is getting hot after X number of minutes of operation and causing the picture to degrade.
Anybody heard of this problem elsewhere? I've tried Google and I'm not finding anything similar. And assuming it is a heat issue, what would your suggestion be? Add another case fan? Put a heat sink on the tuner? Put a fan on the tuner?
