Worked fine to watch olympics in south of France

 

Worked "out of the box" with the distributed software. Works better with Windows Media Centre - but was a bit fiddly to set up (automatic setup in media centre did not work - but manualset-up did). We used whilst caravaning in the South of France to...

It Works Sometimes - But It Freezes the Computer All the Time

 

I have had the TeVii S660 now for a month or two. The picture is very good when it works. But the USB bus freezes up often when the Tevii is connected. When the USB problems occur the computer has to be restarted. Other times when the TeVii is...

Perfect solution for Windows 7 MCE

 

I have been looking for a decent DVB S2 (HDTV) USB satellite receiver which would work seamlessly with Windows Media Centre (Windows 7, 64bit) and fortunately, with the TeVii S660 I have found it. I had previously used a Technotrend TT-Connect S2-3650,...
