WinTV-HVR110 Review November 10, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Hauppauge WinTV HVR1100 - Vista ready Hybrid PCI TV Tuner. Analogue / Digital freeview TV on your PC!
This was a waste of money and a huge disappointment. It is installed on PC with a dual core processor & 3gbytes+ of memory, running Vista and it runs like a dog. Most of the time it can't find the digital stations, and on the analogue stations the lipsync is all over the place. I should have returned the item as not fit for purpose, but never got around to it.
Software issues May 2, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As others suggested, the bundled software is really slow on changing channels, even on my quad core 4GB ram system. It is to do with the software itself. Windows Vista users can use the build in Media centre software instead. BUT it will only choose between Analogue or Digital tuning, NOT BOTH. To change between the two, you need a rescan/setup.
This makes having a hybrid A/D tuner a bit pointless.
Bottom line, picture quality is as good as any TV card but I suggest the digital only versions instead.
hvr-1100 February 9, 2008 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I am currently running a pc with vista Home Premium, I had a previous bad experience with a Dazzle USB D-TV stick...dont buy it, it doesn't like vista, and took over 3 hours to clear it out the registry.(it does not uninstall!!!) I bought the Hauppauge card as there are a number of good reviews online, the advice that I picked up was this.... connect up the device, turn on the computer. DO NOT instal any of Hauppauge software at this stage, windows has the drivers preinstalled. Thats it...go into media centre, set up the tv. The remote that it comes with will work most of the media centre functions, open up the files in the installation cd, and find the file IR32.exe this will install the software for the remote to work media centre. It was as easy as that, I couldn't recoment this product enough.
...although the box stated HVR1100, the chip on the card read HVR1110...I believe that this is the updated model.
Drivers have been sorted June 6, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
As of the end of May 2007, the XP drivers have been sorted... I have over 50 channels available and I'm not even in a supported digital area (peak district)... good picture, although a little blurred at 1920x1200... but I expected that. everything works as it should. You will need a digital enabled aerial though.
Beware, new HVR-1100 is actually HVR-1110 March 14, 2007 26 out of 31 found this review helpful
I have had several other Win-TV cards in the past 10 years or so, and to be honest they have performed well. Before I ordered thsi card I did a lot of research and the HVR-1100 had received some very good reviews and it appeared to do all I needed, so I ordered it.
The delivery arrived fine, box was marked HVR-1100, all the bits were in the box and I'd already downloaded the latest drivers from the web-site for this card. Installed the card in a PCI slot, and noticed that it looked different than I had expected it to look, as it was a triangular board, not oblong.
Booted up, Windows XP [Home SP2] detected the card and asked for the drivers, I pointed it at the latest ones I'd already downloaded, and the card was installed. I then installed WinTV2000 and all the other bits.
Launched WinTV2000 and it asked if I wanted it to scan for channels, I replied yes, and off it went.....analogue channels found 9, digital channels found 0. Which is odd as we have a high-gain digital aerial and 2 other devices in the house that find almost 60 digital channels [one is a set-top box, the other is a 32" TFT TV with built-in Freeview].
I contacted technical support at Hauppauge and they suggested I try the latest Beta drivers and software as this is a known problem with this card, at this point I realised that this was an HVR-1110 I had been sent, not a HVR-1100 [which doesn't suffer from this problem].
Dowloaded an tried the latest beta drivers and software. scanned again, same results. Several calls later with technical support it is clear that this card [HVR-1110] has a major problem with Digital using the current available [and beta] drivers. Further suggestions involved me uninstalling various software and sending them my PC, as the problem 'may' be due to the power supply [NOT].
So, to wrap-up, I have returned the card to the seller as 'not fit for purpose' and also 'not as described' as well as 'faulty'. The real HVR-1100 card [oblong] is fine, the new HVR-1100 [triangular and really a HVR-1110] should be avoided at all costs at this time.
Hopefully this will stop anyone else having to go through what I have in the last week, If you want a good alternative, I'd suggest the HVR-1300 as Hauppauge haven't yet re-engineered that card.
