TweakTown has posted a review on the Prolink Pixelview PlayTV Pro all-in-one TV/FM Tuner & Video Capture Card



The major feature of the board is the Philips TV/FM Tuner module. A Conexant Fusion (formerly Brooktree BT878) encoder chip is present that facilitates video capture. Both composite and S-Video inputs are provided. This card has the potential to turn the back of your PC into a rat´s nest of cables, having no fewer than 6 external connectors. They are: FM Antenna, TV Antenna, infrared sensor, audio out, S-Video input and composite input. Other "All-in-one" cards such as the Voodoo3 3500 and ATi´s All-in-Wonder series use a breakout box for all the cables - but this setup isn´t too bad. An internal connector provides capability to connect a Philips web cam. The card can receive TV inputs both from a standard antenna or a cable TV subscription.
