Introduction
Congratulations on becoming the proud owner of a PCTV 310i!
The PCTV 310i combines four devices in one PCI card: It lets you receive not
only DVB-T but also conventional analog TV (via cable or antenna) and FM
radio – and everything in stereo. Plus, you can use the analog video input, for
example, to digitize your old video cassettes.
DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting Terrestrial), digital terrestrial TV, offers a
wide selection of channels with excellent image and sound quality, without the
need of a satellite dish or a cable connection.
Additional services planned for the future include digital radio, interactive TV,
and IP data reception. Some of these services are already available in selected
areas. More information about DVB-T can be found on the Internet, for
example, at
www.dvb.org
.
Together with the full version of the Pinnacle MediaCenter software, you can
use your PCTV 310i to not only enjoy live TV and live radio but also
timeshifted television or radio, as well as high quality recordings of shows on
your hard drive and writable DVDs.
You also get access to the free information services, teletext and the electronic
program guide (EPG). These services let you simply and easily access the
information you want at any time, as well as schedule the shows you want to
record.
And now have fun with your PCTV 310i!
