wan3212 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 I'm wondering if the MacBook or MacBook Pro has a TV Tuner or not. If they dont, whats a good one to get, and how do they work? When can I watch TV, and what do I need to make it work. Do I just need cable, or what? Sorry, this is probably a noob question, but im newer in the world of Mac.

No they don't have a tuner installed, you want to check into the EyeTV software from Elgato they have a list of compatibile turners that can be used with their software including a couple they make themselves they usually hook up to the computer via USB.

meansizzler Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I heard the Hp Express card TV Tuner Works with Eye TV, maybe the Terratec one works to?, why have USB when you have express card Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/96355-macbook-tv-tuner/#findComment-688452 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSn1™ Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 I got the Pinnacle PCTV HD TV Tuner. It works awesome with EyeTV, HD signal works flawlessly. Really recommended, got mine for $129.99 at Best Buy including the Mac Software (Don't know which one, I already had EyeTV).
