Compro VideoMate M330F

An Analog TV PCI card from Compro Technology.

Overview/Features

Compro VideoMate M330F model is a "classic". A full-length PCI-board, using the traditional "cupping" RF unit. About ten years ago it was such an overwhelming majority of computer TV tuners. Today, when all manufacturers are mostly passed on semiconductor RF blocks, to meet such an instance - is a rarity.

PCB Compro VideoMate M330F can see a number of empty seats for the extra connectors and electronic components. This suggests that the same "piece" PCB manufacturer produces or plans to produce a slightly modified model of the analog TV tuner.

On the mounting bracket Compro VideoMate M330F without using any adapters housed all the necessary connectors. Their function is written as a strip on itself and on the reverse side of the PCB.

Compro VideoMate M330F connectors on the mounting bracket:

  • TV input (F or PH type)
  • FM input (PH type)
  • S-Video input (Mini-DIN 4 pins, Black)
  • Composite input (RCA Jack, Yellow)
  • IR sensor input
  • Audio input (Phone Jack, 3.5mm, Black)
  • Audio output (Phone Jack, 3.5mm, Green)


Due to space limitations audio connectors - is Phone Jack 3.5mm. When connecting to a TV tuner, external devices require specific cable or adapter for the sound. In principle, such a purchase in the store or make your own - no problem.

Nevertheless, in this model there is such output and audio cable included, which it can be connected to the sound card.

Remote Control Compro VideoMate M330F relatively compact (110x52x19 mm). Despite this, he uses the usual batteries and has a comfortable rubber buttons. Number of the last will be enough to control the basic functions of the TV tuner.

The sticker on the front of the remote control has become traditional for many models of TV tuners production Compro Technology. Wishing russifyi your remote can stick it, separating the bottom sticker protective layer. The whole procedure is unlikely to take more than a minute.
