I've had pretty good success with the SiS 630 and Intel i810 based
video cards.  Mostly you will find those on motherboards with built in
graphics.

I'm not ure of the status of the ATI boards.  I know ATI is being
helpful and a year ago the All-In-Wonder pro had good TV-in support,
but TV-out was not yet supported.

Good luck,
