4.0 out of 5 stars pretty good, 16 Oct 2006
By 
This review is from: Freecom DVB-T Hybrid USB Stick - Analog TV & Digital Freeview Receiver, black (Electronics)
I recieved the USB stick last friday and quickly had the installation done and was searching for channels. The first time i searched I only got about 35 channels but with some moving of the arial I now have 60+. Where I live not every channel works but there are many that do. Sometimes it does stutter a bit but other then that it works fine, and what can you expect for such a small thing. It may be bacause my computer doesnt meet the recommended spec so that could be a cause for the stutter.

The only thing i would like to see different is to be able to choose where you want you recordings. With the software it has to be in /my documents/my videos which is ok if you have alot of space on your drive but for me and maybe other people i would have prefered to be able to choose where i wanted them.

overall i am pleased with this and can recomend it!

4.0 out of 5 stars But be careful with Vista, 19 July 2007
By 
P. Beavan (Worcester) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Freecom DVB-T Hybrid USB Stick - Analog TV & Digital Freeview Receiver, black (Electronics)
The product worked fine on my Dell with XP as its operating system.
I had to connect the main house aerial but thereafter picked up 66 channels.
However when I tried to use it with my new computer (also Dell) it gave a great picture but corrupted the DVD driver such that it disappeared.
I had to restore to prior to the software installation.

The remote control would not work either.

The lesson is that the software is just not compatible with Vista and this was confirmed by the Freecom. If you have Vista or expect to upgrade in the fore-seeable future then do not buy this product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent - with external antenna, 19 Dec 2006
By 
John (SWINDON, Wiltshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Freecom DVB-T Hybrid USB Stick - Analog TV & Digital Freeview Receiver, black (Electronics)
I've had one of these for over a year. There was no reception using the supplied baby antenna but once I had hooked it up to the household TV distribution system it picked up many stations (in what is said to be a marginal DTV reception area). don't expect the supplied antenna to work unless you live very close to a transmitter.

It is very useful to be able to work on the computer and have the TV running in the background. No longer do I have to spend time in another room watching a TV simply to wait for something like the weather forecast.
