Elgato EyeTV Hybrid Two-in-One TV Tuner for Mac

Superbly engineered and supremely versatile, EyeTV Hybrid delivers free-to-view digital television to your Mac via aerial (DVB-T, also known as DTT or Freeview) and cable (DVB-C), as well as analogue television via cable and aerial. With EyeTV Hybrid, you can also tune in to local FM radio on your Mac.

Despite its small size, EyeTV Hybrid contains a full-size and built-in coaxial plug and does not require an adapter to connect cable or an aerial. What’s more, EyeTV Hybrid comes with a composite (RCA) and S-Video break-out cable to connect a variety of devices to your Mac, such as a set top box for premium channels and satellite, a VCR, or a Camcorder.



Two-in-One TV for your Mac
EyeTV Hybrid does the work of two EyeTV hardware products for the price of one. It delivers free-to-view digital terrestrial television (DTT, or Freeview) to your Mac in crystal clear digital quality, as well as analog TV via aerial and standard cable. EyeTV Hybrid also comes with a break-out cable for composite video and S-Video, enabling you to connect a set-top box for premium channels, digital cable or satellite.

Bonus for Australians: Do you plan to use EyeTV Hybrid with a Dual PowerPC G5 or an Intel Core Duo processor? Then enjoy watching 720p or 1080i HDTV (MPEG-2) in addition to the other digital television standards.

Navigate with an Apple Remote
Tired of remote controls scattered around the living room? So are we. EyeTV Hybrid works with an Apple Remote. It will certainly work with an EyeTV IR remote control as well (not included).

Superb quality digital TV recordings
EyeTV Hybrid records Digital Terrestrial Television in one quality setting, Lossless. The DVB stream is recorded unaltered, and so you’re getting full quality DTT content as encoded by the broadcaster. EyeTV supports DTT multilingual programming and Dolby Digital sound. Analog TV can be recorded via EyeTV 2’s software encoder, and the quality depends on the Mac’s processor power (for more information, read the FAQ).
