RE: [Freevo-users] RE: Freevo on Tech TV Tomorrow

[brade - R. C. <gr...@ri...>]

The reviewers could not get Freevo to record TV, the hardware they were
using is clearly labeled in the documentation as not well supported.

The review was very superficial and lasted only 2-3 minutes.

In all they gave it a big thumbs down due more to a lame reviewer than
problems with the software.

I was a little disappointed of the review too. Granted, Freevo isn't
supereasy to install, but it is better than they made it out to be. For
instance, they claimed that a $200 WinPVR board is needed for recording TV.
The reality is that a $30 WinTV board works just fine for both viewing and
recording TV.
