Never miss a program again
With the Cinergy 800i PVR, your computer becomes a powerful and versatile video recorder for
analog television. The video compression required takes place directly in the device, so no
additional load is placed on your computer.
Installing the Cinergy 800i PVR is simple. Insert the card in a free PCI slot in your computer,
connect it to your TV outlet (cable or antenna), install the software—and you're ready to receive
analog TV with outstanding picture quality and full stereo sound.
The Cinergy 800i PVR places a special focus on digital video recorder functions. The recordings
are compressed directly on the TV card (MPEG 2) and stored on the hard drive in DVD quality,
saving valuable system resources. This is essential to trouble-free recording, especially on older
systems.
Everything is as easy as child's play to operate. Either start recording by pressing a button while
the program is running or program it to record while you are away. You can then edit the
finished file in the software provided and remove blocks of commercials and other interruptions.
Then burn the finished results to DVD.
Don't forget the many other advantages provided by watching TV on your computer: time-
shifting TV programs, teletext, editing out commercials and other features will change your life.
The Cinergy 800i PVR is perfect for use in a home-entertainment system running Windows
Media Center Edition (MCE). Thanks to its dedicated drivers, all functions are available with
Windows MCE compliance.
