ADS Tech, a leader in consumer video editing solutions, has today announced the launch of the new Mini Digital TV USB, the latest addition to its award-winning line of USB products and growing range of PC TV Tuners.
With the Mini Digital TV USB, the world of 'free to air' Digital TV Programming and recording is brought to your PC and laptop, complete with personal video recorder (PVR) features. Never miss your favourite show or a live goal again, thanks to the ability to Rewind, Pause or Fast Forward live digital TV.
The Instant TV DVB-T Standard sends 'free to air' Digital TV and radio to your PC through a regular TV antenna, freeing you from television network programming schedules and allowing you to easily record television on your PC laptop so that you can watch shows when you want. You can then burn to disc and watch episodes of your favourite shows over and over again, archiving the whole TV series to VCD or DVD Disc, thus eliminating the need to buy DVD box set collections, since you can now create them yourself.
"The ability to pick up 'free' digital TV and radio channels will be really useful to our customers, whether for personal use, or for business users who want to keep up to date of the news and world events whilst on the move," said Mike McCoy, ADS Tech President. "The small and sleek design (just 8CM) makes the Mini Digital TV USB extremely portable and convenient, allowing users to transport it between their work laptop and desktop PC at home easily.
The Mini Digital TV USB comes complete with Ulead's InstaMedia 2.0 software, making it compatible with the Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial (DVB-T) standard* used throughout Europe and Asia for transmitting free digital TV and radio signals. In addition to watching and recording TV broadcasts, the digital entertainment centre allows users to view photos and photo slideshows, and also enables video recording and direct-to-disc burning to VCD or DVD formats.
InstaMedia provides a simplified user interface (UI) that is easy to use and navigate, and which has been designed with large screen viewing in mind, thus providing a clear and crisp full screen picture on your TV or computer monitor from up to 10 feet away. Alternatively, the scalable TV Window allows you to make the TV window any size that you'd like, so you can watch TV & work at the same time.
