It is an easy way to capture a live TV recording that you want to save or transfer to your computer.

It can also play downloaded and ripped videos from a USB drive. It will even play files ripped from a Blu-ray disc, but it can't decode the advanced audio tracks (it's limited to regular Dolby digital).
I just bought another type of DTV converter and recorder, this one from Best Buy. It's branded Aluretech or ???. It seems to be a little better unit than the RCA. It also plays back the memory chips recorded on the RCA.
I can't believe the quality of the recordings.
