Got this little tuner. Must admit, wasn't really sure it would work.
Delivered super fast next day by Amazon, though I had chosen Super Saver free delivery.. They had even sent me an e-mail telling me it was coming... The supplied software and drivers come on a mini cd that fits in the centre of your standard CD tray. The supplied booklet, contains instructions specific to you operating system, so read this before installing the software.
Installed without a hitch and once I had waved the little supplied aerial around a bit to get the best signal I could find. It picked up 93 stations. And as long as the signal is strong, it displayed them without hitch.
I then tried out the TV record function.
On my machine, it placed the recordings in the my video folder and when I tested the screen shot (capture frame) button it put the image in the My Pictures folder. You can alter where it stores pictures and videos, on the home page screen under Setup/General.
I then moved one of the recordings to a USB stick and played it back on my HD TV. It was surprisingly good quality.
I'm impressed.
A very simple to use interface with basic functions and nothing too technical to cause confusion.
An electronic program guide (EPG) with a brief program description and channel list, provide a way to scroll through the channels and when you are viewing in full screen, hovering the mouse pointer over the bottom of the screen pops up a floating tool bar with the most required functions on it. Pressing escape takes you out of full screen and back to the TV page. Here you can set up your scheduled recordings and rescan your TV channels if you need to. You can also save channels in a favourites list.
No idea how long it will last, but considering the price,it was worth a punt, for a handy little device, that so far has worked very well..

The Best for watching TV on a PC runing vista or Windows 10!
This arrived in 4 days. Opening the box Ifound a small USB DVB TV tuner complete with CD, manual and compact Aerial which is useless unless you live right next to a digital transmitter in your area!. I tried and tested this on my old PC running Vista and a New PC running Windows 10. The drivers and software installed easily from the supplied CD. Instructions are clear as crystal and well written in a book. I used a portable "All in One" External portable aerial which has a a 41db gain, this allows maximum boost of TV signal and was connected at the other end of the DVB-TV tuner unit. I placed my aerial next to the window and I was on a ground floor flat and I managed to scan 137 freeview channels. The software on the PC allows you to record Tv programmes and take instant snaps. The remote control is quite handy for switching channels and pause and recording programs etc . Overall its an excellent gadget and I am pleased with it!
