A lot of people right now don't understand USB TV tuners very much, they don't know what a USB TV tuner is. Also, they don't know what they can do with it. This post will help you get a clear idea about the USB TV tuner.
What is a USB TV tuner?
A USB TV tuner is a stick that can be used to connect TV signal to your computer so that you can watch live TV right on your PC without using TV monitor. To make this work, you should firstly connect your TV signal to the USB tuner. It's very simple and can be done in one or two minutes.

The four features of a USB TV tuner
Ok, now let's get down to the features of USB tuner, actually, there are 4 basic features of it, let's find it out.

#1. Use it to watch TV
This is an obvious feature. It should be able to be used to watch TV, or it cannot be called as a tuner. However, there is a very important tip for you when you watch TV with the tuner and that is: you can record the TV you're watching and edit them. This is really useful when you want to save some of the scenes. Also, you can extract music from the TV shows and use it in your own recordings.

#2. Use it to play PS3
This is the feature that a lot of people don't know about. A USB television tuner can receive analog signal, and PS3 can send out analog signal, therefore, this device can convert the signal to PC. This is very interesting. It means you can play PS3 on your PC monitor after connecting it to the PC through a tuner. So, enjoy.


#3. Use it to play Xbox
This is unbelievable too. However, it's true. Actually, the theory is just as same as playing PS3 on PC. You can connect your Xbox 360 to PC through a USB TV tuner. Another cool thing about this is that you can also connect to the internet while you're playing games on your Xbox. It means you can communicate with your friends while playing games. Also, you can do something else, for example, you can surf the internet to find some info about the game. It's very helpful.

#4. Use it to record a DVD
This is cool. Sometimes, when you come across such a good DVD and you want to save it to computer. However, the computer prompt that you cannot copy the DVD because it's copy protected. But what can you do if you really want the content? You can use a USB TV tuner to record it to your computer. It will capture the video image direct to the PC without copying the original file.

Note: as long as you don't intentionally spread these copied movies, it's absolutely legal. And as the DVD is very easy to get broken, you can keep the movie longer in this way.
That's it. That's the basic 4 features about a USB TV tuner. You might already know some of the features and you might not know some of them either. For the latter, I think this article can help you know more about TV tuner. Just enjoy.
