    Hi,

    Well i came with the idea of starting a thread with all the alternative software compatible with this laptop, that could replace the stock ones.

    TV-Tuner:
    Stock: LifeView MVP (Pros: Simple to use; Cons: Startup time long, no channel reorder, absolutely few options and only one recording format.)
    Compatible alternatives: Cyberlink Power Cinema (Pros: Easy to use, short startup time, channer reorder, lots of options and three recording formats/quality; Cons: Not one till now)
    Non working alternatives: ChrisTV; Nero Home; Beyond TV. (Mainly the card not detected or problems with sound..)


    I'll update this post with my own investigations and with all the contributions from you guys.

    Cheers
