Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Poor product, poor support
I bought a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1600 last year. It works, but very poorly. Using an indoor HD antenna I can pick up only three local HD stations. The high definition picture is decent, but nowhere as good as on a HD television. I would like to point out that I am using a high-definition Samsung monitor with my computer.
Meanwhile, analog stations, coming in through cable, are much, much worse. The picture is fuzzy, expecially when watching in full-screen mode.
But my main ... Read More
Rating:  - Excellent tuner for Media Center
Everything was easy to install and it works great. We use it with our Xbox 360 to record TV shows. It is an excellent buy!
Rating: - A very poor tuner for standard-def analog video
I own the WinTV-HVR-1800, the PCI Express version this card. For both cards, the recording quality for standard-definition video is very, very poor compared to previous Hauppauge tuners I've owned (like the WinTV-PVR-500, which unfortunately I sold too quickly).
Additionally, its ClearQAM recording capabilities do not work with Media Center, which effectively means that the feature does not exist.
I would not recommend this card to anyone.
Rating:  - Good product, good value, software is clunky
I bought this to add tv tuner capabilities to my desktop workstation. It works quite well for watching and pausing live tv. The software for viewing, planning, and storing automated recordings is quite clunky and awkward to use. My suggestion: Try http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-10053173-1.html?tag=TOCcarouselArea.0 when it is available. It is packaged with a nearly identical Hauppauge tuner card, or you can use your own card and just buy the software.
Rating:  - TV card not performing as expected
I installed the Hauppauge 1178 WinTV-HVR-1600 Internal Hybrid TV Tuner/Video Recorder in my Windows 64 bit Vista machine and it only works PART OF THE TIME. It works fine at times, but other times the signal is broken up and lots of pieces come up missing. I've tried EVERYTHING TO FIX the problem only to wind up in defeat. I wish I had gone another route. In all fairness, the company did offer to refund my money (or exchange it whatever) but I kept it and tried some more tricks, only to wind up again ... Read More
