Elgato HDHomeRun Review – PC Mag
PC Magazine have published a review of the Elgato HDHomeRun network-attached HDTV tuner. ‘The HDHomeRun is similar to other TV tuners on the market in that it has two coaxial inputs that connect to TV antennas or cable television. When reception is available, the device receives free over-the-air standard-definition (SD) and high-definition (HD) broadcasts, plus unscrambled SD/HD cable television from a coaxial cable. What makes the HDHomeRun truly unique is that instead of connecting to your computer via USB or an internal PCI slot, it's the only tuner that connects to your network via Ethernet.
If what you really want is to watch HDTV on your laptop, at, say, the park or in an airport, you'll want to stick with a product that uses USB, such as the Artec T14A Digital TV Tuner. And scrambled HD cable channels (HBO and Showtime, for example) can be viewed only through a pricey PC equipped with an ATI CableCARD reader; there's no Mac option. But if you want to deliver SD and HD programming to multiple computers on your network, the HDHomeRun will do the trick.’
