Average Rating:
Rating: - good
to summarize this is a powerful and good product... but the software WINTV is not that good i used progdvb which better works with it.
Rating: - Very nice card for the money
There are a plethora of dvb cards on the market and i had a hard time choosing one. But after some research i hit the money with this one. Crisp video, the tuner is very strong as well. Video capture from camcorder is good quality, very little if any frame dropping.
I use this in my HTPC running mediaportal and sometimes dvbdream. Very nice card.
Rating: - Best deal for budget PCI DVB-S card
I have used several similar cards and this one is the most reliable. It works with all OS's because there is good support for the drivers. This is important. Also, it's generic BDA drivers insure that it will work with most any TV viewing software. One major advantage this card provides is that its tuner is very strong compared to many of the others. You will find every channel available to you in your area after you scan. For an internal PCI card, it's the most solid one of its type.
Rating: - close but no cigar
the product works wonderfully if you dont use the wintv 2000 software. i recomend paying for the mytheatre software or one of the other ones
also no windows vista x64 drivers i keep a xp partion on my media center for tv
