AverMedia Technologies, which claims to be Taiwan's leading manufacturer of TV tuners, PC-to-TV converters, and digital photo viewers, has launched a Freeview PC card into the UK through the Maplins retail chain.
Currently on offer at Maplins for £79.99 until the 17th of May (after which it reverts to the list price, currently £99.99), the card features PVR functions such as scheduling, live pause and record/playback, recording in MPEG-2 format onto the PC's hard drive. It also has an MP3 radio recording function and comes with an infra-red remote control. The card also features a screen capture function, and includes external S-video and RCA video inputs. However, it does not appear that the card currently offers MHEG (that is to say, interactive TV) support.
