Great for Vista Media Center / Windows 7

By HTPC Fan in MO (newegg.com)

With the setup that I have, I have encountered zero issues since coming to realize that they can only be used one tuner at a time per stick. No Crashes. Every scheduled show has recorded to date.

This USB "Stick" was very easy to install and has been rock solid for use with Vista Media Center. I have 2 of these configured to record Analog and ClearQAM cable signals with the greatest of ease

These tuners are HYBRID not COMBO meaning that only one of the tuners on each stick can be used at once. With Media Center you must setup the tuners as either analog or digital in media center, but not both. That is why I have two. One records analog chan...

Works good

By N/A (newegg.com)

Good tuner for the money. Should probably be a little cheaper.

This is nice for a USB tuner. Perfect for someone who doesn't have the room for a pci card. I am running 2 of these using Windows 7 RC1 and recording only clear qam with no real problems. Haven't tried drivers from website. Just let W7 install by itself

I just noticed I get some pops with the audio for some shows. Haven't figured it out yet. Need to update all my drivers to see if it fixes it

Fantastic

By MAC (newegg.com)

I have much more expensive PCI-e cards from Hauppauge and this one works just fine. It may not start up quite as fast, but no real issues. Perfect for my over the top PC with no extra slots available on the inside.

Small, easy to install. Antenna is good for how tiny it is. Drivers work for 64 bit vista and W7 has them already loaded with the OS

Price? Really works quite well
