Average Rating: 
Rating:  - great little tool
I found this to perform as advertised (the little antenna works as well as a bigger set of "rabbit ears" for digital). The instructions were good and install of SW was fast and simple. I'm happy with this product.
Rating:  - Big disappointment
This is the first product I have returned to Amazon, I have been a customer for about five years. The tuner seems very much like a beta product, rushed to market without much thought to reliability or ease of use.
Perhaps the problem is user expectation. I am used to a TV working almost instantly when I press 'ON.' With the HVR 950, pressing 'ON' did not yield results after four-hours of set up. The first problem was that the HVR 950 does not support Windows Vista out of the box. There ... Read More
Rating: - Easy installation and good results: watching TV on my big monitor is terrific fun
Installation was very easy. Documentation was clear and easy to follow.
We have very good results, watching TV on the Dell laptop and on the 24 inch wide-screen, flat-panel Dell Monitor with my desktop. It is very convenient to be able to watch TV in every room (say, when our in-laws are here ... everyone gets their own channel!) and the analog cable pipes well into it, too. I've only tried watching TV on my laptop a couple of times: it was fun while traveling. But it is a great way to "grow" ... Read More
Rating: - Solid device from the best name in TV on the PC
This is the 3rd Hauppauge TV on the PC device I have owned, and the 3rd that's delivered exactly what it says it will.
It is resource intensive, but newer Laptop/PC's won't have any problem. I'm using it with an older PC (Athlon64 2800+ w/ 1GB) & a brand new (very fast) Dell Latitude laptop....and it works fine on both. It definitely slows down the PC, but it doesn't impact simple stuff, like light browsing on the internet or using MS Word. I don't even notice that it's running on the ... Read More
Rating: - Works, but you'll probably need a better antenna
Easy to install and pretty easy to learn. HD shows look great! However, instructions are so-so. The problems I was having - jerky picture and loss of signal, were definitely due to the weak antenna that came with it. The directions hinted at the problem being computer memory, setup, etc, but I was using it on a brand new Dell laptop. A cheap antenna from a local Radio Shack made a dramatic improvement, but the antenna is too big to take on trips (left it at my son's apt for our next visit). If you plan to use ... Read More
