Digital camera reviews of Pinnacle Remote Kit for Windows Media Center On Vista

Digital camera Review: Does NOT work as advertised
Summary: 1 Stars

According to the Pinnacle Remote Kit product description on their website, "all Windows Vista certified TV tuners" are supported. However, I cannot hook it up my satellite box - Vista gives an error "IR Hardware Not Found".

Called Pinnacle support and they told me that the Remote Kit is not supported for use with any non-Pinnacle tuners (I have a Hauppauge tuner).

So, they basically lied and I wasted my money.
