- ^Support is limited to content broadcast as 'copy freely' (DRM Free)
- ^Unlike the UK DVB-T EPG, the Freesat EPG uses its own channel and thus must be specifically set up in order to be used. Consequently support for DVB EPG may be insufficient to access it.
- ^Supports XMLTV programme data which is provided by various sources for various costs depending on territory. For example, the (supported) 14-day Radio Times feed for the UK is free of charge.
- ^Version 1.5.0 or higher required - only 'Copy Freely' support - No Encrypted 'Copy Once' support[13]
- ^ abvia aMPdroid app; requires WifiRemote and MpExtended plugins[14]

- ^Windows Media Center supports CableCard when used on CableLabs certified OEM Hardware.[18] Windows 7 Media Center supports CableCard on any hardware that passes the Digital Cable Advisor tool in MCE.[19]
