  • Clearly the Hauppauge HD PVR won't be everyone's cup of tea. Its reasonably high price, niche usage and software issues make it unsuitable for the regular consumer. However, for enthusiasts with a specific use in mind, this is still a unique and very usef...

  • El HD PVR de Hauppauge es sin duda un producto muy completo y distinguido, con muchas posibilidades en cuanto a entrada y salida de video y audio se refiere. El software que incluye, creado por ArcSoft es muy completo y nos permitirá realizar las cap...
