DiaboliK Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 have you checked out the elgato eyetv? http://www.elgato.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conroe Mac Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 Ahh yes, there's a couple threads discussing it. Thank you. I will try to piggyback onto what has been written. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sander Spilleman Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 It would be interesting to see it there are any: - Compatible devices with both Windows, MacOSX and Linux so we don't have to buy 2 or 3 devices ;-) - PCI devices that are compatible with Mac(pro)OSX S.

DRKRONNIN Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I think the Hauppage tv tuners are mac compatable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zulu.Walker Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Lots of hacked drivers for BT848/878-based TV Tuners, quality might border from pretty decent to bad, but with their price it's worth a try. Just get one that's well-known, I'm having some problems with my Windoze-made generic el cheapo BT878 tuner under OSX, but it works fine using generic BT878 drivers for Linux and Windows. I've got a thread running at the link below: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=43842 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobile2go Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Pinnacle HD Pro USB Stick works with both windows and hackintosh and no drivers are needed with hackintosh. The only software I've found that's works is the EyeTV 2.3.2 or 2.3.3 software and it works like a charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcdull Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I've got my BT878 fully working on my 10.4.8. I uses iTV 0.4, but be sure the following points. 1. Download the Intel version, most places only provide PPC version 2. try different combination of resolution and deintelance option. 3. Try different tuner type. my setting is PAL I (Hong Kong), with 720x480 resultion, reasonably good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lord xeon Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 i'm looking to get a tv turner card, and would love to get one that works both windows vista and osx. most of the one's ive been seeing that work in osx are usb ones, i'd rather have a pci one, but it looks like those don't work to well. anyone have a suggestion as to which one works best/easiest in osx?

okatodal Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Hi, my FloppyDTV S2 (Firewire) works great - WinXP with DVBDream or PogDVB, OSX with eyeTv. Installation under OSX is much easyer than under Win, VideoQualty is also better than under win. HD also works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
