Did you set it up in MC to receive the correct format?

Did you select your country from a list when you initially ran Media Center TV with it?

Try this:

TV Options->Advanced Properties tab. Double-click "Video Preview Pin...". In the resulting dialog window, select proper Color Space setting (YUY is the most likely correct setting), and video size.

It seems that the card is based on BT878 chipset. There is an excellent third-party universal driver that you may want to try.

It is available here:
