I don't want to disable TV on demand, but I do need to be able to just
look at live tv. How do I do that ?

It says its live tv, and it says the speed is 1.0, but it is slow and
the sound is studdering, so It can't possibly be live TV.

You said that you were feeding audio from the TV card into the line in
jack. Try to isolate the problem .... unplug the cable connecting the
AIW to the sound card:

-Is there audio at the plug (connect another amplifier, or headphones,
to the plug)?

-If you feed another signal into the line-in jack, do you hear it?

Need to see if the problem is no sound from the AIW card, or if the
problem is that the line-in jack is effectively dead.

Check the line-in settings in the sound card's mixer.

Actually, I just realized this question is out of date. I have the sound
working, Now I have horrendous studdering. The TV starts off slow but
even if I get it to the right speed it studders so bad I can't hear
anything.

Check to see if there's sound card driver updates for your sound card.

I remember I had that same problem with the sound studdering, until I
updated the sound card drivers and the problem went away. I have the
Creative Audigy 2 sound card. The new ATI drivers and ATI MMC suite needed
the sound drivers updated.

If your sound card drivers are out of date, you need to update them.

No, it doesn't. All of the other sources are digital wave files. ONLY
TV is an analog audio source.

You didn't answer the two questions that I posed:

-Is there audio at the plug (connect another amplifier, or headphones,
to the plug)?

-If you feed another signal into the line-in jack, do you hear it?

You need to isolate the problem. BTW, it's not enough that the line in
mixer control is not muted, it also has to be turned up. And be sure
that you are using the right jack and the right mixer slider. Feed
another audio signal into that jack (from a CD player or MP3 player, for
example ... a signal that you KNOW is present) and see if you hear it.

Some how I don't think the problem is the sound drivers. When I start
