1.0 out of 5 stars Forget it..., May 23, 2009
I owned the Gefen HD-PVR for several months. For the price is an absolute piece of junk.

For starters the audio sync is off by a fraction of a second, creating an obvious discrepancy that will be noticeable for many viewers. Second, the stereo-only audio recording results in harsh, brittle audio that does not accurately reproduce the stream of whatever content you happen to be recording. The internal hard drive is small and the transport-to-PC via SD/SDHC cards doesn't work quite properly either. Sure, the picture quality is fine, but for the $800 and up that this retails for, everything about it ought to work...and it doesn't. I wouldn't hold your breath on the firmware front either, as each update that came out when I owned the device added glitchy aspects that weren't there before. One update disallowed 720p/1080i recording to a SD card, another allowed it. One other update re-allowed it, but wouldn't let you transfer a hard-drive recording to the PC card. And on and on it went.

A much better, more cost efficient, and much more satisfying device is the Hauppauge 1212 HD-PVR. For about $200 you get a working unit that hooks up to your PC, records in 5.1 audio (that's in sync!), records in the same H264 quality, but gives you a lot more options, a lot more flexibility to fine-tune your recordings, burn to a dual-layer DVD+R for AVCHD compatability, and such.

$800 for this non-working unit or $200 for something that does, and does it better? It's a no-brainer.
