Pros: Digital / Analog TV on your computer, Remote Control, Works well with VLC media player as well. Plays is surround sound stereo on my system. CC display works!
Cons: TV guide function does't work as far as I can tell. I have a P4 2.8ghz with 64MB AGP video 1.5GB Ram. I can watch analog TV fine, but my computer is too slow for watching the HD channels in FullHD 1080 resolution. Too choppy on this system. I would assume you need a more modern setup to get a good result with this (3.2ghz HT CPU with agp 8x or better) Any basic Dual-Core processor with PCI-E video card would be fine.
Overall Review: Good buy for the money for a PCI card.
