Earlier in the week Nvidia announched it will be producing PCI-based TV tuner cards and special software that takes advantage of Microsoft's new Windows XP Media Center Edition.
The products will include a TV tuner card with hardware MPEG-2 encoding, and a Media Center interface that gives users control of display and audio settings from the Windows XP Media Center interface. Nvidia also added a "Nvidia Karaoke" feature, to boot.

"Nvidia is taking a comprehensive approach to its Windows XP Media Center Edition solutions," said Kevin Eagan, general manager of the Windows eHome Division at Microsoft Corp. "By focusing on key components such as form factors, reducing system noise and expanding end-user control, NVIDIA is developing solid hardware solutions for Media Center that will enhance the consumer experience."
