The digital (ATSC) part of the card is perfect, so I have no complaints, since that was my primary purpose for the card. However, the analog part leaves a lot to be desired. This is not a problem with the seller. His description is exactly correct, and describes the card perfectly. However, if the buyer doesn't understand this card's limitations, they may be disappointed. Please note that this is a hybrid card, which means that you can either record a digital (ATSC) signal, or an analog (NTSC) signal, but not both at the same time. If you thought this would allow tuning of both simultaneously, you will be disappointed. In addition (and this is the part I missed), the analog (NTSC) has NO hardware encoding. It requires software encoding. And since the card is sold without any software, that means you need to have the correct codecs on your computer, or you will not be able to record analog signals. And if you want to get these codecs from Hauppauge, you will need to pay for them, since they come with WinTV 7, which is not available for free. Also, keep in mind that even when you have the correct codecs for analog encoding, this is a very CPU intensive process. If you are trying to put this in an older, single core system, you are going to be very disappointed in the performance. With all that said, if all you want is a good TV tuner that captures modern, digital over the air (ATSC) television signals, then this card is PERFECT for you. enjoy.Read full review

The new ones come with a remote and battery. This one states that it's new but at the bottom tells you it does not come with remote. Brand new in box comes with remote. Please correct the details

Easy to install. I had tried a newer model but they are all PCI express cards and were incompatible with my old computer. Didn't install Win TV, just use Windows 7 media center. Haven't gotten the remote to work yet though and the mouse is a bit cumbersome so only 4 stars.
