Summary: Good product...not compatible
Review: Had this product for over a year and it worked great until I installed a Logitech Webcam, and the two devices don't like living together. The Logitech deleted the drivers and software for the Win TV card. I reinstalled the TV card using the newest drivers downloaded from Happauge and it kicked out the webcam. I made the decision that I'd rather have the webcam but Happauge should definetely make a patch so that their products get along with everything else.

Summary: always go for internal TV cards!
Review: I was reluctant to purchase an internal card, but the Hauppage WinTV DBX was my first choice if ever. I initially got a Pinnacle Studio PCTV USB...and it wasn't any good! The resolution was poor, and the sound had a 'distinctive hum' when increased. Returned it to the seller, and told them I'll exchange it for the WinTV card - and twas a good thing I did have it replaced!! This card has great resolution, and has all i need (video and still capture, input for ext. a/v devices).

The DBX sound is great too, and no more 'hums' - plus i got mine with a promotional free IR remote! So now i can chat, surf, and not have to get off my seat to watch (or record) tv! Highly recommended (specially the unit w/ the free remote included). Running the unit on an AMD Athon 1.33GHZ w/ 640MB DDR RAM, and a 64MB nVidia GeForce 2 video card.

Summary: The Best Hardware I've Ever Purchased!
Review: I've had this card for about a year now, I use it everyday, I never watch TV on a television anymore. This TV tuner has many features and great software. One feature I like a lot is that you can take snapshots, this is great if there is a number or address that is displayed too quick to write it down. The snapshot feature is real nice because it doesn't take bad quality interlaced pictures, it enhances them so you have a high quality image without any lines. Also, I like how you can resize the TV screen and have it at the bottom of your screen while you do other stuff. I really recommend getting this card!
