Pctv Pro USB External USB2 Tv Tuner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The picture and sound quality is terrible, plain and simple. The constant high pitch noise that you normally here with tv's is even worst with this thing; along with that, the sound quality is just aweful. I've heard much better sound come out of older tv's. The picture quality is simply unbearable, even regular channels have snowy picture when plugged into the cable. I even tried connecting it to different jacks and tried different wire and the result was the same. And even worse, it takes a half hour just to install the software only to get poor results. I decided to uninstall and return this so called tv tuner, and when I began uninstalling it, a window for a major error in windows popped up. My computer was fine afterwards, but that should not happen. My guess would be that the software messes with windows xp (i have professional) to compensate for it not being media center. Nevertheless, avoid this product and only get a tuner with good reviews and actually has tech specs, dont be fooled by the "features." They don't even tell you the resolution this thing is capable of.
