The Laptop HD TV Receiver
Filed under: Audio & Video Gadgets, Gadgets
This Laptop HDTV Receiver is a portable device that just plugs into a USB port on your laptop or any other desktop computer and included is a magnetic HD antenna that plugs into the receiver which will allow you to receive and record local high-definition television content because it uses the same ATSC tuner found in full-sized HDTV’s.
This receiver also includes an adapter with composite and S-video input and has a built in NTSC turner.
The software included allows you to view HD content on your computer and record content as MPEG2 or AVI files.

The same ATSC tuner as in full-sized HDTVs? Not from performance standpoint.
How about an experiment? Plug the receiver into a laptop USB, and connect laptop output to your full size HDTV.
Let us know if you see a difference.
You are so ignorant that you don’t tell the difference between tuner and dsp. It’s the job of a software and processor to make the signal viewable. Tuner just grabs it and sends it to processing chain.
