Limited fomat options
This product is easy to set up, and creates digital files that are of good quality, perhaps lacking in sharpness but with nicely saturated colors. My only complaint is that the resulting file sizes are huge. There is no option to record to divx or xvid avi formats. Even a one-hour program in standard definition ends up as a four gigabyte file or larger. Therefore, if you do not have a massive hard drive, you must convert the .ts file to .avi using another video converter program, wasting hours of time. This is a software problem. Hauppauge's hardware works fine. Possibly there is other video capture software that would accomplish a smaller file size in a more desirable format. But I tried using vlc, and it did not capture at all. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Video To Go
This product is great. I can now take movies and TV shows from my satellite DVR and record them on MY BOOK portable hard drive. This allows me to play them back at a later time. The playback is with a WD TV live media player. This is true HD playback. Alternately you can burn a DVD for playback. As a bonus I have a Flip video camera and the Arcsoft Total Media Extreme software allows direct compilation and DVD burning of MP4 video. I would give 4 stars to this product. Instructions and explanations on settings are a little tedious.

Good
Easy setup. The recorded video is choppy unless you set it to the highest quality, could be my computer. The recorded video is crystal clear, the only down fall is it takes about 9 gigs for a movie.
