There may be difficulty to receive Freeview TV signal by the included portable antenna in some areas where the signal is not sufficiently strong. This is due to that the Freeview service in the UK is not fully operating yet. The reception will be improving along with the progress of Digital Switchover Program. A signal amplifier or booster may improve reception in regions where the signal is marginally strong. (please note that reception capability may also be affected by various factors such as proximity to Freeview TV/digital radio transmitters, tall building structures, thick walls, ceilings & etc.). A rooftop TV aerial may be required to receive Freeview in regions where the signal is insufficient for a portable antenna.

 laptop freeview tv receiver September 3, 2010
royston
Returned this item only worked on the outdoor ariel not on one supplied very disapointed
 some troubles August 20, 2010
gerard
I've got some troubles to make it working in linux (ubuntu), but finally after few tricks (changing driver's source code) it works almost well. From time to time, probably because of temperature, it hangs up.
 Excellent piece of kit August 8, 2010

I'll start with the proviso that this needs to be connected to a decent aerial - the one that comes with it is useless. If this is the case, it works really well. Picture quality is good even on a fairly basic monitor and, unlike other DVB-T sticks of this ilk, the picture appears relatively quickly. I was also fortunate - the Freecom stick that I had before (also very good, but suffered rather when I trod on it) required the installation of the ArcSoft software that this uses. To my surprise and delight, this hooked up with the stick immediately - I didn't need to retune. As they say, it worked out of the box, including the remote control. Highly recommended.
It's Great August 7, 2010
This Is A Great Product At Such A Cheap Price! The Picture Is Good But It Can Be A Little Studdery! I Recommend Plugging It In To A Rooftop Aerial TO Scan for Channels As You Only Get About 67 Channels From The Supplied Antenna! I Also Recommend Using Windows Media Centre As That Gets 95 Channels And The Supplied "Total Media 3" Only Get Just Over 60 Rooftop Aerial Or The Supplied One!
Anyway, Don't Let The Cost Put You Off As This Is A Great Product 5 *****
 TV on my new computer August 5, 2010
Hupa
i purchased a August DVB - T205 PC/Laptop USB Freeview TV Receiver & Recorder for my new Compaq Presario. It does not work with Windows 7 which says on the box. I have had an experienced computer person and the Techguys at PC World to try and get it loaded, but nothing doing.
I have kept my old computer which runs on XP and it loaded on it at the first attempt.
