- Pros: Excellent option for recording analog TV and making your PC a DVR. Fully integrated with XP and Vista Media Center makes this work wonderfully.
- Cons: None.
- Other Thoughts: The included software for the card is written very well. A lot better than other options out there, but to really enjoy the capabilities of this card, run it with Windows Media Center.
Worked months straight on end
- Pros: Plug and play for Mythbuntu. Been recording since January at least one show a day and have had no problems.
- Cons: Only has one tuner. Won't do HDTV. I'll have to upgrade sometime.
Linux friendly
- Pros: Linux friendly :D I ran this with ivtv and mplayer and watched TV on my computer all the time.
- Cons: 2 second encoder delay that can't be turned off (in Linux at least) so playing console games is futile.

The WinTV-PVR-150 uses a hardware MPEG-2 encoder, so you don't slow down your PC while recording. With MPEG data rates from 2 to 8Mbits/sec, you decide how much hard disk space your videos will consume (the lower the data rates, the less disk space your videos will consume, but with lower video quality). |

| Consumer Alert |
This television receiver has only an analog broadcast tuner and will require a converter box after February 17, 2009, to receive over-the-air broadcasts with an antenna because of the Nation's transition to digital broadcasting. Analog-only TVs should continue to work as before with cable and satellite TV services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products. For more information, call the Federal Communications Commission at 1-888-225-5322 (TTY: 1-888-835-5322) or visit the Commission's digital television website at: www.dtv.gov |
