Out of interest, if MCE worked why on earth did you install XP Pro?

PowerCinema is an excellent piece of powerful software, and is ideal for TV cards. I have a Freecom USB Freeview stick and it detects this with proper BDA drivers, the BDA Drivers are the important bit here for people who struggle to get software to work with TV Cards. PowerCinema is also good for pictures, DVD Movies & music etc, with the apsects of TV issues, it will scan the for listings of whats on and list your tv for you.
