Wow. That's awesome. I'm up to my neck in new software, at the moment, but this is on my short list.

I have an Elgato 250 - which is great- but requires a power supply. One trick for people using them simply to watch TV- put it in 'Game mode' which will not cache anything on the HD but means it responds a lot quicker if you are using a cable box.

I just hooked up my friend with the Slingbox...... http://www.slingmedia.com/indexa.php She can watch TV on any PC in the world as long as there is a high speed connection, wireless or not.

I have the earlier EyeTV wonder 2.0 and It worked really well on my G5, works even better on my Mac Pro. They keep improving the software, things keep getting better. Good company, good product.  |
