is there an advantage to this vs. a pair of $20 usb tuners?
I guess just networking.
you can share the device on multiple computer over LAN.
But since it does not work on WAN, I feel Slingbox is better.
dont even know what this is but the Hauppage HD PVR is the bomb.
been raping HBO of movies in 1080i that arent available on bluray.
amazing how many comedies never really made it to bluray yet and may never...
Have one and love it. As thezen said you can access it with any computer on the network which, with Media Center in Win7 gives you a DVR at any computer. Good with weak signals, much better than the $20 USB tuners I was using and is quicker to change channels - the lag of ATSC tuners annoys me greatly. Been running a year now and haven't had it fail once
External tuners are stupid. The Ceton PCIe card rocks.
External networked tuners can be shared between multiple networked devices (tablets, phones, laptops, etc.). That seems pretty useful to me but may be less useful if you only have a single desktop system. Last time I checked, you couldn't install a Ceton internal PCIe tuner in a laptop. Having multiple tuners in a single enclosure like the HDHR or the InfiniTV also has the benefit of not requiring a signal splitter. So your signal is stronger into the tuners.
I see $109.99 now!! which make the three tuber SiliconDust HDHomeRun PRIME model a much better choice. The prime also supports cable cards for premium channels.
