Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Supports external hard drives and USB drives
The HW-150PVR requires external storage to record shows - it supports an external hard drive up to 2TB, or a USB flash drive up to 64 GB.
Pro Low price
At around $30 and no subscription fees it is one of the cheapest ways to record OTA TV.
Pro Recordings can be watched on the computer
Recordings are made in .mts format, playable by PC video players, so you can record shows on the USB stick and move them to the computer.
Pro Doesn't need an Internet connection
The device is very simple, just a digital tuner that records over the air signal.
Cons
Con Doesn't record by show name
The HW-150PVR doesn't have a channel guide, so it is not possible to set it to record shows by their name - you have to set a specific channel and time to start recording.
