Good thing there are DVB-T2 models available. I have a Philips Full HD 24 inches monitor with speakers, After watching your video I ordered this tunner to watch OTA channels on my monitor. I also have an HDMI switch so I can change the input from PC to satellite receiver and OTA Tuner stick.

Update: I had a lot of trouble with the converter stick I bought from eBay. Again my version is a Mediasonic Homeworx. The problem was that channels 3.1 - 3.9 were not showing up at all. I ended up removing the power from my antenna and it worked as I did a scan again. Then I plugged the antenna back in and the signal got even stronger and clearer. I was stumped. I just didn’t get what I did fully but it all works now.

So I finally got it to record. My new problem is getting the captions off for recordings. I tried turning it on and off and that did not work. It stayed off till I fast-forwarded. When I stopped fast-forwarding it came back on. How can I stop them from coming on?

It's well thought out, even though it's more complicated than a Boeing 737 Max simulator.

How do you pair the remote from the original TV remote? That way we only use one remote instead of original TV remote to turn off and ATSC remote for the channels.

Please recommend an indoor antenna with this. TY

What is the minimum GB needed in a flash drive to record programs?

[Streams_R_us]

How do you get the ir receiver cable to display the correct channel number (23-1) instead of the .C010. I notice yours is saying the same as mine.

[lilnvbx]

can you connect a coax cable tv to it in order to watch cable tv on a monitor?

[IloveHamberger]

I've got an old portable tv who's battery pack has the same plug, do you think i could get a splitter and use this to make the tv pick up chanels again?

Excellent video, I was looking at that, looks good, Thank You.

The one from GT media needs no power.hopefully you can test that one out.

[justjillvanlife]

Thank you for this. I didn’t know this existed. I have a projector. I like to take with me. It’s pocket size and sometimes I don’t wanna watch DVDs now there’s an option on there that says radio. Does that mean I can tune in the radio stations that are local also?

Same as a set top DTV box, same price, maybe only advantage is compact for behind a computer monitor on wall. Some of the cheap DTV boxes had poor power supply internal that ran hot and failed and or poor ventilation on video chips, some running 160F+. I added internal heatsink or ran without cover to help extend life, namely Ematics brand.

[JailaSea]

So I can't use that with my Firestick?

Just bought one of these. Came here to see why it doesn't work. AHA. Connected correctly but mine does not say boot. Tried it on 2 TVs. Correct inputs. Sigh.

[regissuchma]

I need this tired of paying high cable bill every month

[LisaLisa-zxfh]

You did not show us how to set it up. Bummer

[salmack]

Technology at it's finest. Go big or go home ..is replaced by size. Lol. Now where do all of the old boxes wind up?
