    Can anyone recommend a DECENT/GOOD T.V tuner? Doesn't have to be Perfect. EXTERNAL ONLY.

    I'm just tired of reading reviews that contradict each other.

    PLEASE ONLY REPLY IF YOU OWN OR TESTED.

    I own both the DViCo Fusion HDTV USB and a Twinhan MagicBox II on 2 different machines...i think they're both pretty good in terms of picture quality. The software i think for the DViCo's is constantly being updated whereas the Twinhan...not so much. Software on both is nothing to write home about, they get the job done. The Twinhan is MCE compatible (if u own MCE or are thinking of installing it) whereas the DViCo wasn't...not sure if it is now...hope this helps

    Thanks for the info guys, I realy like the small size on the DViCo Fusion.

    Wow at the prices tho. I guess the $45 -$75 ones I always see in the stores like Comp-Usa or Best Buy are pretty worthless huh?
