TerraTec CINERGY 1400DVB-T Installation guide

DVB-T for Television and Video Recording on your PC!
Turn your PC into a TV with the Cinergy 1400 DVB-T. Receive digital terrestrial TV broadcasting
(DVB-T) with all the advantages of the new technology: watch TV in top quality and whenever
you want, record TV programs to your hard drive, edit and burn your recordings to DVD. All with
the familiar comfort of your TV room, thanks to remote control, the electronic program guide
(EPG) and teletext.
The Cinergy 1400 DVB-T receives its signal from an antenna as always. Just plug in the PCI card
and attach the antenna—that's it! Your TV of the future is ready. The timeshift function lets you
pause shows and continue watching them at a later time. The picture format is adjusted
automatically, whether for the news in 4:3 format or for movies with a wide-screen cinema look
at 16:9, either in fullscreen or in a smaller window—it's up to you. The Cinergy 1400 DVB-T offers,
of course, teletext, but it is faster than ever and can be controlled conveniently by your mouse.

Recording is particularly simple. Use the electronic program guide (EPG) to help make a plan,
program a time to record or start the recording manually. Without any loss of quality, you can cut
your favorite series or blockbuster movie to your hard drive—either in MPEG-2 format or in
Transport Stream format (which lets you record subtitles, too). As long as the broadcaster
doesn't skimp on sound quality, your recordings will even capture Dolby Digital.
DVD MovieFactory 3 TV comes with the package and makes it easy to cut out unwanted ads
and commercials from your recordings, and then burn DVDs or CDs with the option to create
your own custom menus and chapters. The remote control adds additional comfort. With it, you
can control all of the functions of the TerraTec Cinergy Digital 2 software, not to mention other
programs, like Power DVD, WinDVD and WinAmp.
