Really good HD quality. Works with El gato TV and Mythtv flawlessly on a celeron processor. Kind of expensive but it is the best multiplatform HD tunner you can find right now.
Rating: - Awesome product....
I was debating for a while if I should purchase a mac mini with the hd homerun or an apple tv or tivo. A tivo will cost me $299 plus a monthly cost. The apple tv will cost $299. A mac mini is $599 plus $170 for the hd homerun for a total of $769.

My TV over the air TV antenna was not located near where I have my PC so I needed something that I could put near my TV Antenna and communicate over a network to my PC. I have the LinkSys Media Center Extender and the HD HomeRun ... Read More

I used to have 2 separate MyHD cards in two separate PCs to record OTA HD material. After finally upgrading to digital cable, I realized that OTA, with its frequent drop outs, inconsistent tuning, and reception problems that would render a show utterly unwatchable at least once a week was no match fo digital cable. The HD Homerun was affordable and had two tuners, so I could ditch both the MyHD cards. The tuner itself is great, not only does it get all the network HD stations (which were the only ones ...
