FEATURES- PCTV HD Card
Pinnacle PCTV HD Card brings SD and HD TV with full personal video
recorder (PVR) functionality to your PC -- with no desktop clutter.
Watch, time shift and even automatically record all of your
favorite HD and SD TV shows with no service fees.
This includes pausing and automatically recording all of your
favorite shows in the familiar and friendly MCE environment. All of
this, and there is absolutely no new software to learn. The PCTV HD
Stick is a must have for anyone that wants to get a taste of HD
quality content for a fraction of the price of an HD TV set. It is
also an attractive solution for the majority of Windows Vista/XP
MCE owners who did not purchase a TV tuner with their systems.
ATSC, the new digital TV standard, comes over-the-air and for free
in high or standard definition, and there are absolutely no
required subscription fees. In addition to ATSC, standard analog TV
(NTSC) can be received via cable or antenna. The included Pinnacle
TVCenter Pro software lets you not only watch TV, but also record
it. You can even pause, rewind or fast forward your favorite TV
shows.
Pinnacle PCTV HD Card provides everything you need to turn your PC
into a digital TV with fully functional DVR. You can actually view
and record true over-the-air HD content for free.
If you have a Windows Media Center equipped laptop or PC (Windows
Vista Home Premium/Ultimate or Windows XP MCE), don't worry, the
Pinnacle PCTV HD Card is fully compatible with Windows Media
Center. This qualified combination provides everything from
watching live TV to all of the great features of a fully functional
digital video recorder (DVR) with free integrated Electronic
Program Guide (EPG).
