The Hauppauge 1250 series of tuners work great! This particular 1250 is VERY small...great for a very small machine. I'll just modify it to use a normal size mounting bracket since I prefer normal sized motherboards, cases, etc. I use Mythbuntu and/or Xubuntu with MythTV, but there are a variety of OS's and recording software you can use. Hauppauge also has their own software you could use. By the way, you could even record two (or more) TV shows simultaneously with just one single tuner card like this 1250. That's just one more little thing for new users to play with. 8-)

Bought 2. One lasted a week. If you get one that works, it's a good value. Keep in mind if you want to use this in a standard case, you will have to fabricate a full size slot connector. These are for mini cases, that's why they're so cheap.

It is very important to know that this is an older style PCIe card and will not work in some newer HP machines with generation 2 slots! It is compatible physically but not electrically. Fortunately that was not a problem for me but do be sure to check your machine. I was not able to use it in an 8300 Elite but was in an 8000 Elite. I have also seen on the web that Z230s are problematic.

Easy enough to install, must be modified to install in full size case. I used tape and it still works perfectly on a Windows 10 machine. Just be sure to install the drivers in compatibility mode. I used Vista sp2, but apparently designed for Windows 7. Works so good, not changing it. (Except to improve mounting) Runs hot, so keep air moving around it. Has MUCH better reception than the USB tv adapter I was using, and a much better fit than just hanging off the back of the box by a USB port.

Mine came with the original box and extras. Make sure yours has the different case adapter for small thin itx/matx and the full size case adapter. Works great with Windows 7x64 running Windows Media Center. Also check if it comes with the IR remote for ease of use in said use.
