Currently, I am only running one hybrid at the moment which is plugged into a generic LCD tv. Also, I'm using generic 5.1 analog surround sound speakers.

Video Card

This card works very well. Driver is automatically installed in both DVD and CD install method.

Things of note

The onboard audio has it's surround sound channels muted by default. Going to kmixer and unmuting them gives me surround sound until reboot. Still looking for solution to this.

TV tuner is fully supported and detected during normal setup.

Fiire remote is plug and play.
