Pros & Cons

Pros

Broadcast hdtv is just amazing. I have 3 tvs hooked to the hd antenna in my attic. Our rooftop antenna (the stations are about 35 miles away) also feeds 2 other tuners and 2 tvs.

If you run a plex server, want broadcast tv channels but don't want to pay for cable, this is a good option. Epg works well but only 4-6 hours ahead. Using the plexpass dvr it works without any trouble.

This card works flawlessly. The card is phenomenal however the bracket attached to the card didn't fit my case.

The one that comes with it fits in any desk drawer no matter how thin. It does the recording and programming and sorting. Recording -- even multiple simultaneous shows -- works flawlessly.

It is a testament to the sturdiness of this card the fact that it works despite having arrived bent and with a twisted bracket! Motherboard is an asrock j4105-itx.

Quality


The only issues i had were with the ir receiver


Easy installation 4 tuners and excellent picture quality


I bought this one with the intent to try it and then return it if i did not like it


Fortunately the normal size remote furnished with the v7 works with v10 level

Price


Recommend buy price is good compared to when it debuted at 100 to 200 more

Competitiveness


Ive used quite a few wintv products over the years


Seems to be pretty stable compared to wintv v7 which was a constant headache


If you use plex instead of the included wintv software dont install the included wintv software


However this card like other wintv products has lots of thirdparty and linux support available
