<b>External Digital Satellite TV Tuner with MediaCenter Software and remote control.</b>
<b>Watch and record digital satellite television</b>
Pinnacle PCTV 400e combines a high quality, digital satellite TV viewing experience with advanced personal video recording features such as Timeshifiting, one-touch or programmable TV and radio recording. You can burn captured recordings in original quality to DVD, or create a VCD or S-VCD, or even burn directly to DVD while recording live.
<b>Easy-to-use, all-around media management solution</b>
Pinnacle PCTV 400e also includes Pinnacle MediaManager to help you find, view, and organise the potentially thousands of music files, digital photos and videos collected on your hard drive. With this software, you can create photo slideshows complete with transitions, titles and background music. Create unlimited music playlists or import playlists you’ve already created.
<b>Satellite TV on vacation</b>
Pinnacle PCTV 400e is small, light and ultra portable. Owners of camper caravans equipped with a satellite antenna will find this product great for those long summer vacations. No need to have a TV and a PC to take up extra room. A laptop PC and PCTV 400e provide everything you need: a PC, TV viewing and recording, CD and DVD playback, and easy organisation of digital vacation photos.
<b>Works as High-speed satellite Internet modem</b>
The digital video broadcast by satellite format includes more than just TV and radio. It also supports high-speed Internet downloads via satellite. PCTV 400e supports these services. With the 400e and an account with an Internet by satelllite provider, you’re ready for services such as high-speed Internet access or Satellite media streaming services.
<b>Everything you need</b>
PCTV 400e comes with software, an external TV tuner and a remote control. With these three components in-hand, you are ready to transform your current PC into a media center — which means that you can access all your music, photos, and videos using a remote control. The components were designed and tested to offer a well-tuned, compatible product combination — for an enjoyable experience.
