AVerMedia Avertv Combo G2 - MTVCOMG2R (Retail Box) Reviews
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: AVerMedia Avertv Combo G2 - MTVCOMG2R (Retail Box) (Personal Computers) This is replacing my old Fusion HDTV3 tuner card(ancient but still worked) for two reasons. I wanted the Media Center IR receiver that comes with it, and then just wanted the newer technology(tuner, compatibility with Windows7, etc).The AVerMedia Avertv Combo G2 is designed for use with Vista and Windows 7 Media Center. However, after Windows recognized a new device, my system wasn't able to install the drivers properly. I prefer when things are just plug n play easy, but it wasn't hard to download and install drivers off the AVerMedia site. I know, I know. There's an installation cd that comes in the box, but I've developed the habit of letting Windows install new drivers and/or taking the latest ones off a manufacturer's site. I get less funky software I never wanted that way. Installed and after Media Center downloaded some of it's own files, the new tuner card was recognized and the set-up went smoothly after that. I plugged both jacks into the cable; I know...

The card comes with all you need, such as remote control (has its own mind), cables, and IR blaster. Remote does what it likes to do, and not what the buttons indicate. Volume button sometimes changes channel, changes volume, or anything else it likes to do. Channel button does many other things in addition to changing channels, but not predictable as to what it is going to do next. Application crashes often. Windows Vista Home Premium's Media Center did not recognize the card. Windows 7 32-bit and 64-bit Professional both work fine with the card. While recording a program, a red circle flashes on the corner of the screen, if you have OSD set to "on". This red flashing light shows up in the recorded program, and ruins the recording. We have cable service, and I connected it to the cable from the wall, without a converter box attached. I was able to get a few ATSC (QAM)...

I loved my 650 but I am in a weak DTV signal area and I didn't get all of the local channels. Many channels cut out or didn't come up at all. Even before DTV these channels were weak at my home. So I tried this card because AverMedia had decent reviews and it seems to be newer technology. Installation: Installation was kind of quirky but not bad - Windows 7 64 bit didn't pick it up automatically. So I ran the driver .exe and it loaded, but Windows reported that it did not load properly. However, device manager said it was fine; it did load and it works. I did not install AverMediaCenter as I am used to Windows MediaCenter. Channel Setup: I was able to set MediaCenter to access all available DTV channels and also pull in the analog output from my satellite dish box (on separate cables), just as I had done with the 650...
