Ownership verified by DX Best price ever! Even better with Windows 7
Posted by MerChan on 2/28/2010
Involvement: Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership: more than 1 month

Price: starstarstarstarstar
Ease of Use: starstarstarstar
Build Quality: starstarstarstar
Usefulness: starstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstarstar

Pros: -Fairly good build quality.
-Outputs the DVB-T video quality that is suppose to.
-Works in Portugal.
-Works perfectly out-of-the-box with windows media center on windows 7:
--when you plug it in, windows vista/7 will get automatically the driver via windows update.
--On windows 7 you just need to open wmc, configure the tv signal et voilá, it's working.
-Standard europe RF connector so you can connect any kind of antenna available in europe.
-You can get a good reception with the bundled antenna.
-Good looking remote.
-PRICE!

Cons: -long dongle.
-needed to put the bundled antenna in a specific position to get a good signal.
-remote not easy to use in a dark room because of the buttons disposition.
-remote doesn't work with wmc unless you re-assign the buttons with the proper software.
-If you made the remote work with wmc, sometimes it will not work as expected. For one day it worked really well, now is always "jamming" keys in the software side.
-supplied blaze hdtv version does not decode H.264/mpeg4 so, no TV in my country with it.
-If you want to use Windows Media Center for playing TV on vista you'll need to install a H.264/mpeg4 decoder (codec) if your country is using the latest version of dvb-t.
-Sometimes the device can stop working when not used and is plugged to the computer.

Bottomline: For the price you won't find any better than this. The real downside is the bundled software, it doesn't work with most recent dvb-t version and the remote doesn't work for any other application than blaze HDTV unless you have some time and skills to install proper software and re-map keys.
If you already have Windows 7 then you'll love the super easy setup combined with Windows Media Center.

Ownership verified by DX Good product, cheap, but not working on linux

Overall Rating: starstarstarstar

Pros: - Watch TV on your PC cheap and easily.
- The antenna included it's good, just remember that it MUST be in front of the local TV repeater or an antenna wall plug.
- In north of Spain, all commercial channels can be watched with original antenna.
- Nice view quality.

Cons: - Chipset (AF9035) not supported yet on linux.
- Remote controller works randomly.
- It does not support HDTV.

Bottomline: I'll try another product which I think it works on linux, but if you dont mind this, this is your product.

Standard antenna plug.
Good quality.
Option to update blaze tv to ver 6 whith serial number that suplied.
Works great whith VLC.

Its not the chipest dongle.
I dont know why, but it didn worked on one of my (3) computers.

Ownership verified by DX Good, but not great!

Price: starstarstar
Ease of Use: starstarstarstar
Build Quality: starstarstar
Usefulness: starstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstar

Pros: - Better sensitivity than many similar devices, but not quite as good as the best.
- Normal antenna input, no need for adapter.
- Does not get hot.
- Works great with Windows Media Center, no need to install drivers.
- Price is good for quality of hardware.

Cons: - Software included (Blaze DTV 4.0) is bad. Could not make it work perfectly with Windows XP or Windows 7.
- USB plug is a bit loose, it's easy do accidentaly disconnect from computer.

Other Thoughts: Bought this tuner based on overall positive user comments, but I am not totaly satisfied. Sensitivity not as good as the best. Build quality could be better and the price seems a bit high compared with other DX items. Included software (Blaze DTV)is useless for me.

Bottomline: If you live in a good digital TV signal area and are prepared to use other software like VLC or Windows Media Center then maybe this is a good buy.
