Does anyone have any tips about getting the most out of this card? I
recently installed it and so far, so good. I like it.

It's a very good, relatively inexpensive tuner card. I think that there
are some Hauppauge "tweakers" at the green button site.

There's a tweak tool for that card here

It's in the Utilities/Display section - MCE Display Properties (Hauppauge)

I did not get that tool to work, so I use "the other one".

(contains screenshot and a link to the download)

I'd also like to add that it proved to be a crucial tool to get great
results inside MCE.
Specifically the default Haup. saturation, brightness, contrast settings
were waaay off in my case.
The above 3 were crucial to tweak.
My setup:
STB -> RGB-to Svideo converter-> Haup PVR-500MCE
