Important message regarding analog TV receivers in North America:

The Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-500, WinTV-PVR-150, WinTV-PVR-350, WinTV-PVR-USB2 and WinTV-Radio have only an analog broadcast tuner and will require a converter box after February 17, 2009 to receive over-the-air broadcasts with an antenna in the United States because of the transition to digital broadcasting in North America.
These analog only TV boards will continue to work as before with cable TV and satellite TV receivers, plus other video devices such as camcorders and VCRs.
For more information, visit the U.S. FCC website on the digital TV transition at www.dtv.gov If you have any questions on which Hauppauge models support digital TV reception, please contact us at sales@hauppauge.com
