DVB-T Digital TV USB 2.0 Dongle with Remote

Pros: - Excellent price when compared to other branded DVB-T products on the market - Works fine with DVBViewer in New Zealand. - Easy driver installation.

Cons: - Build quality is OK The antenna bases screw section is below the top which means I cannot attach the end rendering it useless. Then again, I won't be using it anyway. Minute trace of glue or adhesive on the usb slot with a thumbprint :p - The CD for me seems to have a error on one of the folders (Not the driver folder thankfully)

Other: If you're looking for a simple DVB-T tuner on a budget, this is a decent choice. It does not include an adaptor for connecting coaxial so you will need to buy one elsewhere.

Pros: - Very cheap compared to a branded TV Tuner card, which could run you at 5 times the price. - A good image, not using the stock aerial though. I bought a MCX to RF coax adapter.

Cons: - The software it comes with is terrible! I tried it on around 5 different computers, with XP 32bit, Vista 32bit and Windows 7 64bit. The software crashed (even the new version off the website) - It is a mission to get it working under Windows 7. - The stock aerial is terrible, as said above, I bought an adapter. (This may be due to me living in an apartment, and being in New Zealand).

Other: If you're comfortable using computers and understand what I've said above, buy it! VLC is powerful, and can be really useful! Currently, I have 3 TV tuners streaming 16 channels in HD over a LAN. VLC does lack features that a proper DVB program has. ie A guide or easy-to-use time slip feature. NOTE: This was only my experience with the device, you may get it all working as intended. Or you could get it working with other programs, like MediaPortal.

Pros: Easy installation Good build quality Cheap Magnet in base of antenna

Cons: Absolutely NONE!

Other: I was surprised with the quality of this for the price. If you're in the market for one of these I can highly recommend this one. One of the best gadgets I have purchased from DX.

Pros: Wow the USB adapter looks professionally made, it is coated with rubbery plastic. It doesn't look cheap despite the price. Included software is really nice with professional look and more like commercial product rather than software bundle. Software is easy to use and navigate Picture quality is superb. Installing software and driver is easy, install the driver first by inserting the CD then you can plug the dongle and it will be detected immediately as simple as that.

Cons: No Coaxial to SMAMCX converter so you have to make you own if external antenna is being used. I have to use external antenna since the included one cant get signal from ground floor, but signal is clear on the second floor. Several second lags when changing channel

Other: This is a good bargain, similar product here cose 30usd and up and that is not including shipping. Go get it if i were you, good bundled software and hardware overall. Included software is professionally made, look more like Powerdvd UI somehow.

Pros: -The product is very cheap. -works perfect on windows 7 & windows vista. -The video quality is very good. -supports HD -Supports EPG -works in Israel -supports Windows 7 Media center

Cons: -The Remote control doesn't work. -The software that comes with the dongle (BlazeTV6) Can't find the channels -When the picture moves quickly,you see it little unclear.

Other: I recommend the Dongle very much.I have it 2 months and I use him a lot. It's the cheapest Dongle I found and it works very well.

Pros: - You can watch television very cheaply in Europe with this dongle.
- Supports HDTV.
- It installs in a snap. Plug and Play if you're using Windows. New drivers are released through Windows Update.
- The included software (BlazeHDTV, full version) is quite good. Even better is ProgDVB, which is free and can be downloaded from the internet.
- Works with Media Portal, you can use as many of these dongles as you like.
- (Experimental) linux support (see cons).

Cons: - No CI or CAM, so only FTA (Free To Air, mostly national channels) by default. This can be resolved by buying a smartcard reader and using software like acamd and cccam or newcs.
- (Experimental) linux support (see pros).

Other: This is a BDA device. That means you will be using software to decode the video or decrypt the signal. Any 3 year old computer can handle that. So, if you want to build an HTPC cheaply, use these.

Pros: It supports MPEG4 DVB-T. It's quite easy to use, works out of the box with Windows 7 and its Media Player. It has no problems with HD 1080i channels. It's small and allows you to watch TV when you're not at home. Antenna has a magnet on the bottom, so it's easy to attach to any metal surface.

Cons: Antenna is a bit small, and it took a while, before I figured it gets much better results when positioned horizontaly. To attach USB tuner to an outside antenna, you have to make an adapter. It would be awesome if such thing would be alredy included with the package.

Other: Overall, it's very good product for a good price. If you need something to enable you watching TV on your laptop, this is the thing.

Pros: Uses MPEG4 DVB-T. Works with Windows XP, Vista and Seven. Works with channels 720p and 1080i. Small, can record the channels while you are not home. Works better in horizontal position and the antenna comes with a magnetic bottom that is excelent for metal surfaces (not aluminum XD)

Cons: Just Free To Air, mostly national channels works out of the box. This can be resolved by buying a smartcard reader.

Other: Very well spent money for what it does. Works even with old and slow computers. Does not work for Free to air in Brazil

Pros: * Works (after some convincing) * Works with H264 streams * Included player software * Remote * Works fine under Win7 with latest driver from manuf. site

Cons: Extremely hard to get working on XPSP3 with certain updates installed. Chances are if you have automatic updates you'll fall into this category. Had to downgrade BDA system files to get working (Would not lock freq. or do anything otherwise) Included antenna is really quite useless unless you live right next to the transmitter station.

Other: If you're running Win7 get it. You won't have much trouble using it. If you're running XPSP3 with updates you might want to consider getting one with a different chip, unless you like a challenge.

Pros: This product is of good quality, very well build.
The body of the adapter seems to be rubberized.
The base of the antenna has a magnet that sticks to metal surfaces, except aluminum.
The wire that goes to the antenna is of great quality, as well as its connector.
The packaging is beautiful, great to expose it for sale.
The adapter is lightweight and weighs only 17 grams and the whole set (with packaging) weighs 119 grams.

Cons: I should have researched this product on the DX forum right here so I would discover that it does not work in Brazil.
Digital TV in Brazil is ISDB-T, NOT DVB-T, so if you want to use it in Brazil, do not waste your money.
I bought several months ago and the program that came was a exceeded trial version.
I do not know if this product now comes with an upgraded program.

Other: If you live in Brazil, I suggest you read this: http://www.dealextreme.com/forums/Forums.dx/Forum.28891~threadid.524846
