Great picture and sound, however NO DLNA support so you cant stream video from your PC, Tablet or Smart Phone. Easy setup but wireless setup is tricky you cannot use certain security protocols or it doesn't see your network. I opted to connect with an Ethernet cable.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Replaced an Antec cooler with this model CPU at full load runs 40 degrees cooler. If you do a lot of video rendering this is the cooler you want. I have a corsair case so it fit perfectly. You should check your case before installing this unit. I gave it 4 stars only because the fans are noisy. I was also able to remove 2 fans that were for extra airflow but you can hear the corsair fans

No manual provided which made for a lot of searching the web. I installed this with a CableCard. You have to use the web embedded page to give to your cable provider so the can pair the box so you need to know the tuner ip address. Windows Media Center finds the 3 tuner but because of protected content wouldn't load. You need to download a program from Microsoft called resetdmr.exe for windows 7 & 8 users you must run this in compatability mode first save the settings then run again as an administrator. Then it will work for all channels in Media enter. Next it does not work with my LG Bluray Players or Panasonic model as well. All though it works fine with Nero DLNA server. So someone is not DLNA compliant. Great tuner once you figure it out.
I have checked the SiliconDust forums for answers and it seems that others are having the same issues

How to connect Wireless Internet?

When I tried to connect my TV with existing Wifi network, it could not detect the network. I tried to follow the process of Hidden Network, still it did not work. I am using Netgear WGR614V10 Router and carrier is Charter. Please let me know whether this router is compatible.
The router is ok. The problem is security. You must use WPA2PSK with AES, DO NOT USE the combo WPA/WPA2 setting, many devices get confused and won't work properly
