In 2006 we all heard that AMD would be discontinuing the manufacture of ATI All in Wonder cards due to growing problems of incompatibility with Windows Vista Media Center and the tuning/capture devices on the cards. However, HotHardware.com is reporting that AMD is planning to resurrect the series with a TV Wonder 650 with a Radeon HD 3650 GPU.
Cards will sport a hardware MPEG-2 encoder, native HDMI connections along with DVI outputs, composite video inputs and outputs, component outputs, and support OTA HD, Clear QAM digital cable TB tuning (some of the connectors are on a separate daughterboard that connects via a small ribbon cable). Of course, all of the features inherent to the Radeon HD 3650 GPU will be exposed as well, as will the features of the ATI Theater 650 chip. We should also note that unlike previous AIW cards, this new version will be fully compatible with Windows Vista.
