 Half-height and Dual Tuner November 29, 2008
C. Wyatt (Phoenix, AZ)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I had 2 requirments for a TV Tuner Card. It had to be half-height and it had to be a dual tuner (so I can record one show and watch another). This card meets the bill. So far it has worked great. Sometimes when I tune to a channel in Windows Media Center the screen is blue and I have to change channels and then go back for it to appear. I don't know if this is because of the tuner or because of something else. Other than that I really haven't had any problems. Possibly a driver update will fix that problem.
 Great for Beyond TV 4 November 29, 2008

This product works perfectly with Snap Stream Beyond TV 4. [.........]
I have 2 digital tuners and 2 analog tuners on my pc. This records multiple inputs and automatically downloads the cable TV and local TV program guide. The picture is great. The software takes some time to tweek to your inputs and program guide. You must be willing to spend some time.
SageTV users: ATSC doesn't work with this card... yet. October 26, 2008

If you are planning to use with SageTV 6.4.8 (latest as of this writing) then be aware that the ATSC tuners do NOT work. Although this is a problem with SageTV, those that are looking to purchase this card are likely to use it under SageTV.
SageTV recognizes this card as something completely different and is unable able to tune the Digital ATSC tuner. I've tried to install the latest beta XP 32-bit drivers from Hauppauge and the beta drivers for SageTV without avail.
I'm sure there's a fix for this coming from SageTV, and when it comes, this card will be perfect. But, until then, buyer beware!
Forced to agree August 29, 2008

Absolutely rediculous, I'd have to agree. While this card did receive the 'Gold Standard' rating from PC Magazine, the fact that Amazon is charging $40 more than the Hauppauge online store for an identical product is mind boggling.
From the Hauppauge page:
WinTV-HVR-2250 TV tuner with
Windows Media Center remote control kit
$149.00
Other online stores have it as low as $125. So why would I buy here?
I give the product 4 stars, but Amazon only 1 for trying to rip us off. 4 stars for the product because of the dual tuner limitation (or at least confusion). So I compromised and marked 3 stars.
 Why is this so expensive on Amazon? August 28, 2008

Why is this TV Tuner (Hauppauge WINTV 2250 w/ MCE kit) $40 more than the retail as listed on the hauppauge website and $50-$70 more expensive than any other website as of 08/28/08? What is Amazon pulling? Reduce the price and I'll buy it!
