    Hi, I was searching for tv tuners for my studio xps 16 and wanted to know the best one for it that works with windows media center and has a remote for it. I saw a friend have a remote that you press a button and windows media center opens up for it, so that one would be nice.

    i love my AverMedia Volar Max

    how big of a remote... expresscard big or normal remote big?

    normal remote: i think if you look for any Media Center compatible remotes, they'll have that button

    expresscard: my friend's HP laptop came with an expresscard remote that had a Media Center button... my M1330 came with a remote that didn't have one... i'm sure you can either reprogram them, or get my friend's type

    I'm using the HP Expresscard TV Tuner. I had it from an old laptop and it works about the same in both machines.
