Elgato's family of EyeTV products lets you watch, record, edit, timeshift and archive TV on your Mac. With solutions for analog and digital television, and video quality options to meet differing customer needs, Elgato has an EyeTV to fit your Mac.
What's New:
Hardware Support
Support for EyeTV 250 has been added. EyeTV 250 features a built-in hardware encoder which compresses audio and video signals to MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 formats, freeing up your computer’s processor for other activities. It also introduces Game Mode.
Game Mode
Game Mode is a hardware feature of EyeTV 250. In Game Mode, the MPEG compressor is bypassed for zero latency game play. Connect your game console to EyeTV 250's composite or S-Video inputs, then enable Game Mode by selecting “Game Mode” from the Controls menu.
EyeTV VHS Assistant
For EyeTV 250 and all supported television receiver/recorders with built-in hardware MPEG-2 compression, EyeTV 2.2 features a VHS assistant that walks users through the entire process of creating DVDs from their VHS tapes. It shows how to connect the video recorder's outputs, play back the tape, record it into EyeTV's Archive, and finally burn a DVD with Roxio's Toast 7 Titanium or iDVD, and optionally export the finished recording to the video iPod. The VHS Assistant can be run from the Help menu at any time by choosing “EyeTV VHS Assistant”.
DVB-T USB Stick Support
Support for the following USB DVB-T sticks has been added:
TerraTec Cinergy T USB XS
TerraTec Cinergy Hybrid T USB XS
