Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T USB Stick - DVB-T Digital freeview TV tuner stick

from: HAUPPAUGE

March 31, 2006
If like me you have wasted good money looking for a USB TV stick that works with Windows Media Center in Vista, then look no further. The Hauppauge WinTV-Nova-T works perfectly. Just install the drivers provided on disk and away you go. Can't tell you about the WinTV software as I didn't install it, but it does work well with Total Media 3 software, which I also use.

Hauppauge WinTV HVR1100 - Vista ready Hybrid PCI TV Tuner. Analogue / Digital freeview TV on your PC!

from: HAUPPAUGE

January 31, 2007
As others suggested, the bundled software is really slow on changing channels, even on my quad core 4GB ram system. It is to do with the software itself. Windows Vista users can use the build in Media centre software instead.
BUT it will only choose between Analogue or Digital tuning, NOT BOTH.
To change between the two, you need a rescan/setup.

This makes having a hybrid A/D tuner a bit pointless.

Bottom line, picture quality is as good as any TV card but I suggest the digital only versions instead.

Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T 500 - Dual Digital Freeview TV tuner

from: HAUPPAUGE

August 23, 2006
I purchased this card because I wanted to build my own Media centre, and it was on the MythTV compatibility list.
It works perfectly with MytThV on Linux, just needed a bit of fiddling to get the Low Noise Amplifiers switched on. The remote works fine too.
I use MythBuntu on my HTPC, a surprisingly good distro,easy to use and set up.
With the latest version of MythTV , I can even record multiple channels from one multiplex on each tuner. At the moment, I have it set up for four channels max per tuner.

Hauppauge WinTV NOVA-TD Diversity Dual digital freview USB 2.0 TV tuner stick

Already having an unused copy of EyeTV Lite, I worked out from cruising the Internet that this product might provide a cheaper but identical tuner to re-badged others offered for the Mac. And it does.

The combination of this and EyeTV software is very nice. Minor annoyance on the Program Guide, but otherwise it's excellent.

Hauppauge WIN-TV HVR-900TV USB 2.0 Analogue & Digital TV Tuner

Got this free when i bought a mac, and i still hate it!! All the software instals really fast and sets up easily, but getting a picture is the hard part. Even in a well covered area the small antenna picks up hardly any channels, only 4 i got. If you're buying because it picks up freeview channels, don't get your hopes up, it struggles to get a picture you can only just make out for bbc 1, bbc 2, itv and five, freeview channels are hopeless. Invest in a mini tv or something, this product is not the way to go!!! If you plug it into your main house arial i'm sure it'll be great, but not with the small antenna provided!!!

The software that came with it is a little clunky hence only four stars....I use it with media center and its brill. Even the remote works correctly in media center (Vista Ultimate edition)

Hauppauge WinTV Express PCI TV Tuner Card

It couldn't be easier. Install the card, plug in the aerial, load the software, and the job's done. I'm amazed at the quality of reception and the simplicity of the interface. It may not have all the bells and whistles of top of the range stuff (it would be handy to have auto-power-up and power-off for recording TV) but for the price I don't think you can do better. This must be the yardstick that other products hope to achieve.

Hauppauge WinTV PVR 350 PCI Personal Video Recorder with TV Tuner

from: HAUPPAUGE

September 17, 2003
I am very impressed with this piece of kit, in fact the only criticism I have so far is the minimal installation instructions. I have never even opened my PC before and certainly never installed any hardware; the lack of detailed instructions left me slightly nervous. HOWEVER, installation was a piece of cake, the minimal instructions were all that was required, the software loaded without error and the card now works perfectly. It was up and running within half an hour of opening the box.

The picture quality is very good, and when playing videos through the scart lead is excellent. Record quality is superb but very memory hungry. I am now going to back up all those fragile old videos onto DVD and give them a new lease of life, a real bonus.

I would highly ... Read More:
