5 Star Review ATSC-110 PCI Digital / Analog HDTV Tuner

Strengths:

digital & analog

Weaknesses:

No FM

Posted Oct 21, 2006 - Best for its price. This units not just a tuner but has video capture, Time Elapse Function, Time Shifting Technology, remote control, all the necessary software to get it up and running plus a one year warrant. Works great on my computer. Can even turn off the computer with the remote. Installation was a breeze. Had no problems with the software installation. I got a digital off-air indoor antenna and I get all the channels. I would recommend this product to anyone wanting off-air digital TV without having to pay Hi cable or satellite prices.

5 Star Review ATSC-110 PCI Digital / Analog HDTV Tuner

Strengths:

Using an Terk HDTVo Amplified OTA Antenna in the attic, the tuner picks up all local DTV Signals with good signal strength

Weaknesses:

When watching TV - if you Web Surf, when scrolling thru page the sound breaks up minutley

Posted Jan 25, 2007 - Great ATSC/NTSC HDTV Tuner Card. No problems with install or usuage. Tried recording game (3 Hours), used 25GB for the recording. Records and PlayBack really well. No Stutters watching live or recorded video. The channels I get in Atlanta are Fox, TBS, ABC & CBS with a Terk, HDTV antenna. If signal strength is less than 70, picture and audio is jittery. Seems dependent on antenna. The HDTV Record quality is almost as good as live. The menu is simple and easy to use. Self explanatory menu system. Very pleased with the performance for the purchase price

5 Star Review A great and affordable HDTV tuner for you PC...

Strengths:

Free SnapStream BeyondTv, Great Picture Quality, Easy Installation...

Weaknesses:

No FM Tuner, Limited Documentation and they dont even give batteries for the remote.

Posted Nov 3, 2005 - Installation was a breeze compared to other HDTV tuners. Great software bundle that transforms your pc to an HDTV pvr. Although only local channels work for HD, because of FCC regulations, it still is a great piece of product. The software just makes this program top notch... The manual though felt lacking and the packaging was so-so, but its amazing once its inside your pc.

5 Star Review Good low cost HDTV tuner

Strengths:

Excellent video/audio. Easy to install

Weaknesses:

Have to pay a subscription fee for EPG after 30 days if you use the boundled BeyondTV 3.8.

Posted Jan 12, 2006 - I purchased this card as a second tuner so that I can watch and record or record two shows at the same time. It works with BeyondTV 4 beautifully. The bundled BeyondTV 3.8 is a very limited version. Better to upgrade to BeyondTV 4. If you get choppy video/audio, first check the signal strength; then make sure you have a fast computer and your graphics card support DirectX 9.0.

5 Star Review Good HDTV PCI Card

Strengths:

HDTV on the cheap; Good interface with BeyondTV 4

Weaknesses:

requires OTA antenna

Posted Dec 21, 2006 - I am quite happy with this purchase. I was not really intending to build a home theater pc, but wanted to play around for just that day. My Windows Media Center PC 2005 recognized the card just fine. However, I already had purchased Beyond TV 4, so have been using that. Also works great. I've now got more remotes than I know what to do with! unlike the ATI HDTV card, this does *NOT* include an over-the-air antenna, so you will have to pick one up on your own. I have a silver sensor antenna, and it works great when I aim it out of my second story window. If you can get this at a good post-rebate price, I'd go for it! Speaking of rebates, I have read bad things about KWORLD, so hopefully I won't be updating my review in a few months claiming that they ripped me off!! HOPE YOU ARE LISTENING KWORLD! ;-)

4 Star Review Great, inexpensive HDTV PCI tuner

Strengths:

Low price, great picture includes remote.

Weaknesses:

Documentation is a joke.

Posted Nov 22, 2006 - Having research this tuner before buying I went to the AVS forum for help on installation. There I found updated driver links and info ( much better than supplied by Kworld) as to how to use. Tuner works great - to bad the company does not supply documentation and very spotty support.

4 Star Review Works, but CPU is buy when Beyond TV is running

Strengths:

Very affordable

Weaknesses:

Bad documentation

Posted Dec 28, 2005 - This card works fine for me on an XP Home PC, P4 @ 2.8 w/o HT, 1G MB 800 FSB RAM. You must have a good VGA card and an outdoor antenna.

4 Star Review Great Value

Strengths:

Easy to install and a great price...

Weaknesses:

No batteries with the remote

Posted Jul 20, 2006 - I'm impressed with the ease of installation and the great picture quality. If you have XP MCE you will need to install an additional tuner as well. Please see the KWORLD website for more information.

4 Star Review very good tv capture card

Strengths:

inexpensive, qam digital cable capture, linux compatible

Weaknesses:

windows mce conflict

Posted Feb 13, 2007 - I am using this card in my media pc (shuttle xpc, xfx 6300 nvidia w/dvi out, windows mce). The card works well under gbpvr, although I had some trouble at first installing it in MCE (conflict with MCE capture driver). The card is also supposed to work under Linux, with MythTV but I have not tried it yet in that configuration.

4 Star Review Good card for OTA digital tv

Strengths:

clear, strong picture. easy to install, works with programs like beyond tv

Weaknesses:

poor documentation and support

Posted Feb 27, 2007 - The card works great for OTA digital TV. Also works alomost flawlessly with Beyond TV. If you have a strong signal you can pick up channels with an indoor antenna but is more reliable with outdoor. You'll also need a good video card and/or a powerful cpu to play back the recordings.

3 Star Review Works well as a tuner but....

Strengths:

Good price.

Weaknesses:

Sorry documentation. Slow or no support from KWorld. RAM sucker.

Posted Feb 28, 2006 - Worked great after I spent two days figuring out why my Windows Media Player quit working. Finally found a new driver for my integrated audio (Analog Devices SoundMax) through Dell. No response from an email I sent to KWorld. This was not an easy installation because of the audio problem and no troubleshooting documentation. If your tech savvy though I'd recommend it.

3 Star Review HDTV Card (ATSC-110)

Strengths:

easy setup, picture quality

Weaknesses:

sometimes freezes

Posted Mar 6, 2007 - I bought this HDTV tuner card when there was a promotion. The installation was painless. The Beyond TV software scans for channels and shows you the signal strength. The picture quality is quite good. But if you change channels fast before pictures show up, sometimes the software freezes. I figured this is a software problem rather than a hardware problem.

3 Star Review Good product.

Strengths:

Free BeyondTv Picture Quality

Weaknesses:

No FM Tuner, difficult to get rebate

Posted Dec 18, 2006 - The picuter quality is great and I am happy with it. Installation was not too difficult. It comes with nice softwares. I heard that it is very difficult to receive a rebate from KWorld. Be sure to make coipies and email them often if you bought this with rebate and if you want it!

2 Star Review ATSC Tuner

Strengths:

Reasonable price; works well with Windows Media Center.

Weaknesses:

N/A

Posted May 17, 2006 - The promised rebate is a con-trick. It demands non-existent receipts. The packing receipt is not enough and there was no sales receipt. Don't waste your time with the paperwork.

2 Star Review KWorld ATSC-110 PCI Digital / Analog HDTV Tuner

Strengths:

NA

Weaknesses:

Poor customer support. Send email and no reply. The manual is hard to understand. Never fullfill the rebate.

Posted Feb 4, 2008 - The cheapest HDTV tuner card in the market but just works great. Have been watching HDTV in my 20 inch LCD monitor for a while and very reliable. Definitely worth the price. However KWorld is a company in Taiwan and has a poor reputation of customer service and honoring the mail-in rebate (There was a $30 mail-in rebate from the Mfr). 10 weeks passed and never receive the check. If there is no rebate, I will buy it again.
