Build Your Own PVR reviews Diamond XtremeTV PVR 550 Power Pack
August 1st, 2005 at 1:25 pm by Christina
Erik Pettersen of Build Your Own PVR recently tested out the Diamond XtremeTV PVR 550 Power Pack. XtremeTV PVR 550 is a great kit for anyone who is looking for an all-in-one media center solution. It includes a hardware MPEG encoding TV tuner card, Beyond TV Subscriber Edition, Beyond Media and Firefly PC Remote.
“The inclusion of SnapStream PVR / HTPC software is an important one, as I have long lamented the woeful VB6 looking quasi-PVR applications that come bundled with most other TV tuner cards, �? said Erik.
Beyond TV Subscriber Edition, which is available with select Diamond Multimedia, ADS Technologies and VisionTek TV tuner cards, operates on a pay-as-you-go subscription model similar to that of TiVo’s, but at a much lower cost. SnapStream offers three different subscription options: monthly, yearly or lifetime.

Where can we get more information on how much the subscription options are? I don’t see pricing listed anywhere. Thanks!
