sourgrapes Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 This might be a duh question but is it possible to get your tv tuner working in Parallels for Mac? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/22073-tv-tuner-in-parallels/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammjet Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Doubtful. The hardware in Parallels is mapped to hardware running on a Mac. If the tuner were running on the Mac, maybe, but trying to get a Windows-only tuner running in Parallels is doubtful.

sourgrapes Posted July 16, 2006 Author Share Posted July 16, 2006 Oh well, thanks. So is there any excuse to get my tv tuner working on the Intel Mac (Darwine or otherwise) or do I have to keep switching to XP?

sourgrapes Posted July 29, 2006 Author Share Posted July 29, 2006 Yeah, unfortunately, iTV doesn't work for me either. I hope Apple will provide more support for TV Tuners on Mac rather than being satisfied with it's Front Row program which is basically just an amalgam of four different applications without any connection to TV.
