Summary: Cheap, Poor software, Poor quality, Difficult to Use
Review: I got this because of the price and because I thought it was good enough. Bad decision! I have WinXP. The software doesn't really work on XP like the company website says it should. In face, WinDVR always crashed when I tried to timeshift it. (I have a Dell Inspiron 1100, 2ghz celeron with 256 ddr sdram and 30 gb hd, i should be ok). TV and radio reception are terrible. I have an 8-yr-old watchman that gets better reception on the same lenght antenna. The device doesn't play sound from the mic in. I use a freeware program called funnyvoice.exe to play the audio. AVI capture is not very customizable and results in huge files. I use an excellent program called "VirtualDub-1.5.1.zip" to capture video and compress it with the newest DivX codec. Rather than recording a 3 minute video off the TV at 120 MB, I get it at maybe 20 MB. But all this software that I use to make it work has taken me a ridiculous amount of effort and the quality of the capture or TV is only so-so, even with cable input. Plus, the audio out of the thing doesn't work so I just plug the audio from my TV directly into my computer. So, now with these two programs I have a decent video recording and tv-watching device, though the quality is still atrocious and the documentation and customer support at kworld is even worse. Don't get this if you want an easy ride. I'm pretty good with computers and only recently has this purchase stopped driving me crazy (now that I've found these two freeware software programs). Bottom line: buy cheap, get cheap.
