Customer Reviews

Ok but not a show stopper
Diversity Works Well (but this involves both tuners working together to give the best signal possible) in Dual Mode it can't see any stations under Windows Media Centre. Perhaps this has to do in part with signal strength. No stations found when used in conjunction with included aerials - I don't know where you'd have to sit in order for these to work.

Sweet
Ok, so it's not as good as my old solution which was two pci Hauppauge WinTV cards, but it's pretty close. Media Center works a treat. As long as you've got a good signal this product is a great way way of getting TV on your Vista Home Premium PC/Laptop, plus you get a remote control too.

Very Nice quality
Worked instantly on my Pentium M 1.6ghz IBM laptop when given a strong signal from my indoor 'Aerial King - Polaris' Antennae. Uses less than 40% of the CPU while displaying a smooth crisp image but have not tested the recording feature yet.
