2.0 out of 5 stars Good Hardware, Bad Software, January 13, 2007
The device was easy to hook up, and after some tweaking the tv signal came through great on the computer. After I had recorded what I wanted to I edited the commercials out, I feel it has issues as when I came back later all that I edited, and saved, was reset. This seems to be a reocurring theme.

Acually making a dvd from what you recorded off the tv is really lacking. You are not able to customize the dvd menu and you have no say in labeling the seperate shows you want to put on the dvd. Also the software has a thumbnail option from each show recorded that I though was to be on the dvd menu. It is not. Another problem with this is it seems to work only with the computer that has the original software on it. It does not work well on my dvd player or at all on my other two dvd capable computers.

If the dvd's you record actually ends up working, then I would recommend this product to those who do not care too much about how their dvd is formatted, as it is very amature. Beyond that this device is only good for watching tv on your computer monitor.

1.0 out of 5 stars geekish, February 12, 2007
Unless your computer is fairly 'virgin' with only simple codec needs and no other video software ... it won't work without a LOT of tweaking.
Buy something better.
Not even XP approved, forget Vista.

1.0 out of 5 stars Defectiive, April 11, 2008
By LO NH "LO NH" (Strafford NH) - See all my reviews
Bought this item in Feb, within 6 weeks there was a weird sound then a couple of little protrusion as though something got hot within the unit,it no longer worked. Would not buy again. Also,it didn't fit properly into the usb port & cable connection to begin with. It repeatedly came apart unless braced just so.
