Drivers and software work immediately, the software is based on an older version of the DVB Viewer, so has many functions, but generally complicated comes a little.
All cable and terrestrial channels were found without exception immediately!
Who does not know: HDTV is in Germany not to DVB-T, is therefore limited to the cable box.
From the Windows Media Center unfortunately only the DVB-T tuner is supported. Cable television via MCE is so taboo.
However the included software is good halfway something, even if you have to enter something Peeve.
One point deduction should there because the reception of HD channels via DVB-C sound from stereo channel is output but only via digital outputs (HDMI / Coax / Opt), because the TT-Viewer lack the necessary decoder. The tool "AC3Filter" provides a solution ... you just firstonce out.
The DVB-T reception is great! During my Terratec stick is not a single transmitter in the apartment, but only at the window / outdoor reception, it brings the TT stick to at least 22 channels directly in the living room.
The remote control is only in connection with the TT-viewer software available, so for me a little superfluous, but certainly very useful for one or the other.
All in all a good product at a fair price! I would buy him definitely be back!
