Color Depth and Resolution Switching

Changing the color depth or display resolution while the ATI Multimedia Center™ is running may result in an operating system or ATI Multimedia Center™ failure. ATI recommends you exit the ATI Multimedia Center™ before changing the resolution, color depth, or switching to a full screen DOS session.
Recording from a Source Encoded with Analog Copy Protection

The ATI All-in-Wonder® products detect analog copy protection on the input source and will refuse to capture video from such sources. The record button automatically becomes disabled. Further, TV-ON-DEMAND is not possible with an analog copy protected source.
TV Magazine and HTML Files

When using the TV Magazine feature, if you save to an .html file, note that still captures are saved in the same directory where the .html file is located. Each still capture is saved as a separate .jpg file. This is the correct behavior for HTML documents.
Video CD Playback

Certain older Video CD 2.0 discs contain authoring problems, which prevent them from working under Windows XP and Windows XP MCE.
Still Capture and the File Player

Still capture is not supported for all formats that can be played through the File Player. For these formats the still capture button does not function.
Corrupted Database with Gemstar Guide Plus+

While ATI and Gemstar closely monitor the TV Listings data, on rare occasions corrupted data may make the TV Guide software fail to startup. If this occurs, follow these steps:
Go to the Add/Remove Programs.
Select Gemstar GUIDE Plus+.
Click on Add/Remove programs.
When the dialog appears select Repair.

This will repair the broken database. The next time you run GUIDE Plus+ you will be asked to re-enter your name, E-mail and ZIP/Postal code.
