3.0 out of 5 stars Hardware OK, Software Incompatible w/ Win7, September 22, 2011

This review is from: Mygica Hybrid USB HDTV Tuner, with Clear QAM, ATSC TV, FM radio, Video and TV Capture / Recording - With Bonus Antenna and Remote (Electronics)

I installed the Mygica Hybrid USB TV Tuner Stick on my XP laptop with out a hitch, but when I tried to install it on my Win7 desktop, the ArcSoft TotalMedia3.5 would not accept my license key. I called ArcSoft tech support and was told that the TotalMedia3.5 was not compatible with windows 7 and they have no intention on make it so.
I am now looking for some Win7 software to run the tuner stick.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not as advertised., October 24, 2011

Not as advertised. The antenna is not anything like the picture. The remote is not anything like the picture, plus the remote does nothing and there is nothing saying what it should do. The radio does nothing. All of the previous remarks look just like the Hauppauge stick (antenna looks like theirs, remote looks like theirs, and no radio).

It locks up frequently, requiring a computer reset. Once you reset and get all your channels set, it works OK.

It trashed the audio codecs used by Windows Media Player for ".mpg" files.

The receive sensitivity on the HDTV tuner is far less than any of my TVs using the same antenna.

It looks good on the channels that it picks up well and it records well on the composite video inputs.

Update - The composite video went out. The last straw; Returning it was easy. It's boxed up. I'll see how long the refund takes.

I am using this on a 32bit Win 7 Dell with no issues. I am using it in Afaghanistan to receive the AFN signal. This was much cheaper than buying a TV and I can take it with me. Works great for me.
