I'm looking for a USB tuner (mainly analogue) for my htpc. Some of the USB tuners I tried a few years ago were of really horrendous quality - has that problem been resolved? I have two pcie hauppauge tuners and they are decent - will hauppauge usb tuners be good also? Thanks!

I have the Hauppauge 950q USB tuner. Works like a charm. Never a problem with it and the tuner is pretty sensitive. It's a touch slower changing channels than a card-based tuner but I don't have a problem with it.

how good is the picture quality on that tuner? how does it compare to the hvr-1800 (I know it's an pci-e tuner, but I already have it so it'll give me an idea). Thanks!
