GREAT for Linux
- Pros: This works wonderfully on my older Linux box (OpenSuSE 10.1, kernel 2.6.16.27) with MythTV. Great picture, good tuner, fast response. The hardware encoder means you can just cat the device to mplayer to check output. Remote control works wonderfully too with lirc (lirc_i2c) and irexec.
- Cons: When I bought mine they were out of stock and sent me a newer (non-Linux-compatible) model in the box with a little note. I called Hauppauge and they sent me a new one 2nd day air.
pause unacceptible
- Pros: bought for claimed good support in Linux drivers, with the intent of using it for mythtv, but have not tested outside of windows yet.
- Cons: pause when changing channels is unacceptable
- Other Thoughts: setup = Cablebox -> PC TV tuner and I am watching the image on the PC's 21" CRT monitor. When I change channels with the cable remote the pause is almost a full 2-3 seconds later. So much so to pretty much make channel surfing a very painful thing. I fully intend to replace with the Leadtech WinTV2000 PCI card (for like 30 bucks) as replacement. The video feed is just very delayed on this card, same thing happens when powering off the tv, (mute, etc,) you kill the cable box, and the screen goes blank like 3 seconds later. The leadtech reacts almost instantly. I do not use the channel/programming guide with either products.
Great below 3GB, Worthless with 4GB+
- Pros: This card is a great value for the money if you are looking for a card that works well in Vista (and XP), and can work with Media Center. The picture is pretty decent, and I have not had any problems installing the card.
- Cons: If you have 4GB or more memory in your computer or plan to upgrade to 4GB, this card is pretty much worthless. It stops working as soon as you upgrade your memory. Hauppauge is "supposedly" working on drivers, but the problem has been known for well over a year and nothing has been done. Worse, ask a question about it on the UK support forum and the thread gets deleted. Their answer: "Currently we do not have drivers that work". It is very questionable whether drivers will ever be released that work
- Other Thoughts: Great card if you never expect to go beyond 3GB or so. Worthless on machines with 4Gb or more.

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 |
