EPG will make you go grey!!!! The EPG for this seriously sucks! So many people cannot get it to work.....but hey, they have your money by the time you find out it looks like its been designed for Win98 and behaves like its from that era. I certainly will not buy from Hauppauge again which is a shame as the card is quiet good just I cant program nothing unless I do it manually. Hauppauge get your act together!!!!!!
Excellent card, Windows software poor, works fine in Linux I purchased this card because I wanted to build my own Media centre, and it was on the MythTV compatibility list.
It works perfectly with MytThV on Linux, just needed a bit of fiddling to get the Low Noise Amplifiers switched on. The remote works fine too.
I use MythBuntu on my HTPC, a surprisingly good distro,easy to use and set up.
With the latest version of MythTV , I can even record multiple channels from one multiplex on each tuner. At the moment, I have it set up for four channels... more info
impressive, only loses a star for the bundled software I bought this to put into an old desktop that I'm rebuilding for a friend to run as a home entertainment system. I have tried it out in an area which according to the Digital TV webpage shouldn't have good quality reception and I've managed to pick up straight away over 30 channels, all incredible quality. I've half a mind to keep the computer myself now! As ever with a Hauppauge product, what lets the product down (and means this gets 4 stars, not 5) is the archaic bundled winTV software> Do yourself... more info
No good for PVR on 2k3, its Let down by driver problems, poor software, and the requirement of an external amp. I bought this product to test out building my own PVR solution.
I wanted to try it on Windows Home Server (based on Windows 2003 small business edition). There are no drivers for Win2k3! Using the certified drivers for 2000, it causes my system to crash every single day! I found I couldn't get any signal from my huge tv aeriel without an external aeriel amplifier, even though the aerial on it's ownt powers my freeview box & tv & dvr-r perfectly The software that comes with the card... more info
