Best DVR/PVR Software?

Question

Hi Folks,

I need some help on deciding which PVR software to go with...

Here's my setup (yes it's underpowered but it's all I have for now).

Athlon 2800+

512 MB DDR RAM

500 GB HD (ATA/100)

HAUPPAGE 350 Capture Card (WITH REMOTE)

Having said all that, which PVR software would work best, and WHY? Linux for linux sake isn't an acceptable answer -- I'm perfectly willing to use Windows if it means I'll have a better user experience or have more features... etc etc.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to your responses.

Answer 2

Do a search for DVR software.  You will want to read through the features to determine if it is the one for you.

I currently use Beyond TV but I am close to switching to sage TV because they have a HD media extender.

If you are going to record HD, your system may not have enough processing power behind it
