AutumnWave OnAir GT USB HDTV Tuner Review
|
Posted on Wednesday, January 30 2008 @ 19:26:35 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck |
When I got my first TV tuner card on my computer back in the ATI All-In-Wonder 9600XT days, I could have almost sworn that I would get a TV tuner card on every main computer I use from that day on. Later, I upgraded to an ATI All-In-Wonder 9800 Pro (That was because the AIW 9600XT literally went on fire by itself, which was kind of sad, and it smelled really bad too!). After a while, things sort of died down as I was already running my fourth Intel Core 2 based computer already by the end of 2007. And sadly, none of them had TV tuner cards... until one day I received an email from AutumnWave. To be absolutely honest with you, I hadn't maintained much contact with the whole world of TV tuner products, so I never really heard of the company until recently. Being that, their OnAir GT USB HDTV tuner that they offered me to review looked quite amazing on paper -- all the way from its specifications to its listed capability and incredible convenience. I admit I th ought about getting a new PCI or PCIe x1 TV tuner, but a USB unit? I've never paid much attention (Or much respect, for that regard) to USB TV tuners for various reasons. How does the latest pocket sized USB tuner capable of handling high quality digital and HDTV signals in addition to the old school low resolution, analog signal step up onto my computer screen? There's only one way to find out -- and we'll dig into that today.
