Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sabrent TV-USB20 USB 2.0 TV Tuner/Video Capture Box with Remote Control

Customer Review: Good Tuner, but you gotta work out the kinks
Summary: 4 Stars

I'm an IT guy and it took me a while to install, but here's what I finally figured out.

1) Upgrade your motherboard, chipset and bios to USB 2.0. My computer kept hanging on boot since I'm installing the TV tuner on an old PC, but the blue screen error and hang I kept getting were because the PC components didn't know how to talk usb 2.0 which is the latest version of USB. I went to [...] for my PC upgrades and downloaded the latest versions.

2) Ensure your boot order doesn't have USB device prioritized before primary hard drive. My pc thought I was trying to boot this TV input device as a hard drive so I had to force it to bypass USB and make USB as secondary boot up device.

Product Review: Overall I think this is a good device FOR THE MONEY. Picture quality is so-so, but I don't care about the quality yet cause I'm new to the whole DVR thing. Hope this helps.
