Peter,
Unfortunately you are trying to do something that I can't be done. A quick
look on ATI's website tells me that the Theatre 550 card is a Digital TV card
whereas your STB will output an Analogue signal. Therefore you require an
analogue TV card to capture from your STB.
Personally, I use a Hauppauge MCE150 card to capture the video from my
Telewest digital STB, first converting the RGB SCART tp S-video using one of
these:

Hope this helps...
