5 Stars for seller service but had to return it because I was not satisfied with the product.
Hardware is adequate for WinXP but bundled TV software is very poor. You have to get third party software like BeyondTV, which I tested with this product but did not buy, or use with WinXP Media Center, which I did not have. I could not upgrade to Win7 because this hardware is not supported.
SD Video quality is okay. Did not get to test HD.

You can use this tuner to recieve ATSC on Windows 7. I use Windows 7 x64 Pro and you just have to install the Vista drivers. While not officially being supported by ATI, this does work and I’m getting my second one right now.

I bought this TV tuner because it has 2 tuners – I wanted the advantage of being able to record and what a different TV at the same time. Also, I am always concerned about support, so I called Diamond before I bought the TV tuner and I got a live tech support rep in a few minutes using there toll free number. I also call ATI, and the tech told me it was the best TV tuner for my applications. ATI also told that Diamond had live phone support and VisionTek did not have live phone support and recommend Diamond. Had no problems setting up the software – very automatic. Just plugged in and ran the CD. I also use it to capture videos for my home movies. Nice TV Tuner

I bought the tuner to work on an an XP desktop with AMD 64 X2 3800+ and 3GB RAM. I have comcast cable and receive 67 analog channels and approximately 30 digital TV channels [QAM256] and 50+ music digital channels over cable and 8 OTA channels. The tuner will pick up the analog channels fine, but I had to upgrade to Vista in order to get any digital channels. Upgraded but can only get OTA HD channels. Documentation says that it should be able to get QAM [clear unencrypted] cable channels but it does not. Have upgraded to latest drivers from AMD and ATI but still no QAM from the cable attached to either NTSC or ATSC connection. Only way to get digital channels is to place antenna on ATSC connector. Have not yet contacted vendor for help since I only have time to work on Sat/Sun.
