Windows Media Center works a treat

I am pleased with the unit - it is well worth the money

I typically record a program by presetting Media Center and can now stream from the desktop to a Lenovo laptop in the lounge, and then via an HDMI cable to a Philips TV

I used a roof aerial for the purpose (as recommended in the instructions) which ensured that I loaded the maximum number of channels for my area

No need for me to buy a digital recorder (which I had briefly considered)

There you have value for money! It took 10 minutes to set up using external aerial
