 Good product but OS is slow November 16, 2008
Robert B. Jontz (Orlando)
Using this product is very easy. I was able to show my children how to use it to transfer old VHS tapes to digital in just a few minutes. Easy to make good quality digital transfers. However the menu is slow. When you press a button it may take a few seconds before you get a response and you may have to press the button a couple of times before it processes it. With patience, it can be a good tool.
 Very Disapponted! October 9, 2008
Glenn A. Schunemann (LAUREL, MD USA)
I purchased the OSD after my Neuros Recorder 2 stopped working. I had the same problems with both OSDs. I'm getting ready to send back the 2nd one soon. There was a vertical line going from the top of the picture to the bottom that ran across the screen from left to right. It that shows on the recording. My Recorder 2 had this problem too, but you could tweak the input cable to get the line to disappear. No such luck with the OSD. I tried to play an MPEG on the OSD from both an SD card and a USB thumb drive. On both OSDs I got sound, but a black screen on play back.
I had high hopes for the OSD. I was very excited about the ability to play back MPEGs! The Recorder 2 can not do that. Alas, it seems I have to wait until the product matures.
 Not A Tivo, not ready for recording in prime time October 2, 2008

I wanted a device to just record the national news everyday. The neuros
has failed in any number of ways. It has a very quirky un-intuitive api. Its slow and un-responsive, and does much much less that a Tivo for scheduling recordings.
The problem with open-source hardware is that you neeed a least one
rock solid app to demo it(which it doesn't have).IF the hardware and software aren't designed to display video, while recording it from the get go, its unlikely that the hardware can be made to do two things at a time with better software.
My unit has occassionaly lost all its settings, but the biggest problem is that since it doesn't have a built in tuner you're dependent on the IR blaster to control a video source( like a cable box). Well that feature only worked for a few weeks then before it stopped controlling the cable box, and it took an effort to get it working again.
To be sure a Tivo can be used to record a show while viewing it, no way can th Neuros do anything remotely like that. a pc is a much better viewer for the files made by the Neuros osd, than the Neuros is.
I'm still looking for a substitute for the orignal tivo boxes , that doesn't require leaving a pc running or paying a monthly charge. The neuros is good for converting a video source to a digital file,but that's all it really does.
Slow/Unresponsive September 30, 2008
Patrick Schless (St. Louis, MO)
I went with a self-contained solution because I wanted something that "just worked" and didn't need hours of setup. I ended up returning the device, because it was frequently slow and occasionally unresponsive.
I'm going to go with a MythTV instead.
 Neuros frees you to enjoy without hassle September 15, 2008
Kevin Ryan (Tokyo, Japan)
The hardest part of installing Neuros was moving the TV to get to the video input/output in back. It has worked perfectly and flawlessly since that installation. I'm able to play a great variety of video files, normally meant for computers, on my large TV set. It works exactly as advertised, both for play and record functions. The simple use interface means there is little to worry about as far as menus. I've not tried the memory card update yet, but find the USB input especially convenient. I wish I could get half a dozen for my workplace.
