Thanks to its numerous types of connections, ASUS My Cinema-P7131 can also be used to record from external sources, and it can also be used to create a security system (ASUS VideoSecurity Online. Another interesting feature offered by this TV Tuner is ASUS Splendid Video Enhancing, a technology that practically analyzes the video information and makes a real time optimization for the intensity and color depth parameters. The TV Tuner also supports scheduled recording; the tuner is also shipped with the proprietary ASUS software, Power Cinema, which transform it in a multimedia center. With the help of Power Cinema, one can view edit and even make DVDs and VCDs.

| Comment #1 by: Lino on 19 Sep 2008, 23:44 UTC |  reply to this comment | Yes is great when it works.
I have spend hours and hours to install Power Cinema without success.
I don't understand how Cyberlink have this kind of magic.
The installation steps showed in the user manual haven't much to do with what i see in the real installation.
So, i spend about $60 and now i have to take it away.
My emails to Cyberlink and also to Asus, haven't any success.
Congratulations to Asus and Cyberlink, i will not buy anything else from them. The same with people i know, because i inform them about thsi and other bad products.

| Comment #5.1 by: Guzelino on 20 Jul 2010, 15:57 GMT | Hm... I have tried and successfully installed Power Cinema 4 and Power Cinema 6 (which is a bit lamer that the version 4, I think) and they all worked beautifully - with Windows XP.
However, I've encountered several problems on my 32-bit Windows 7 Professional. I can install Power Cinema and it works OK but the remote doesn't work - no even a single button :((
Can somebody please help me and e-mail me a software or sth. (email- guzelino @ gmail.com) so I could get the remote to work.
P.S. if anyone wants the software I suggest you google for a torrent with Power Cinema or e-mail me.
Take care and thanks in advance. |

| Comment #8 by: Asif on 09 May 2009, 11:50 UTC | reply to this comment | Well I have purchased ASUS Cinema-P7131 and installed all the relavent software but it doesn't work properly. ASUS or Philips Co. should stop to make more these products.
I have lost my money. It tune only 3 channel of TV from cable out of 100. I will advised those whoem are reading my e-mail "NOT TO PURCHASE" this card.
Thanks

| Comment #9 by: Jovan, Macedonia on 04 Jul 2009, 04:17 UTC | reply to this comment | ASUS My Cinema-P7131 is horrible. In my case remote isn't working, tv image and video from VHS cassetes is unclean.. But most irritating is the software PowerCinema; I can not set my dvd's to be autoplayed by another program like Media Player Classic because every thime i insert dvd in the pc PowerCinema opens and if i quit the process the program just crashes with a blue screen and restarts the computer. Also No support from Asus and Cyberlink! DO NOT PURCHASE THIS CARD!!! |

| Comment #15 by: Guzelino on 20 Jul 2010, 16:05 UTC | reply to this comment | Sorry for my previous post.
I have found a solution, at least for Windows 7 32-bit. I have the Power Cinema 4 (it came when I purchased the TV card) - installed it and works fine.
With a little google searching I found a software for the remote (surprisingly, it is from ASUS), here's the link:
http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?modelname=My Cinema 7131&SLanguage=en-us
it installs OK and works great.
Hope this was helpful.
Take care. |
