  • Elgato EyeTV hybrid opfylder rigtigt godt mange af de krav man vil have hvad enten man er på farten og gerne vil se lidt TV (free-to-air), eller man har brug for en lille tuner til et mediecenter setup (her i forbindelse med f.eks et modul til CAM kort...

  • The included Eye TV 3 software offers easy-to-use DVR functions for Mac users and makes the Elgato EyeTV Hybrid a useful way to add TV capabilities to a computer. Compatibility with EyeTV iOS app allows streaming of TV and recordings to an iPhone, iPod To
  • Slow buffering from a computer to the iOS app makes it unwieldy for live programming. The iOS app requires a computer with the EyeTV Hybrid to be running and connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Input video cables are S-Video and composite only, and many
  • If you're a Mac user who's been looking for a way to add live TV and DVR functionality to your computer, the Elgato EyeTV Hybrid could be the solution you've been waiting for. However, in a world of ever-increasing streaming video options, you might f...

  • Combination TV tuner and video capture device. Great DVR and guide. iPad and iPhone streaming capabilities.
  • Best features are Mac-only. No included software for Windows. No high-definition input options besides coaxial cable. Clunky remote.
  • If you have a Mac, the Elgato EyeTV Hybrid one of the best, full-featured USB TV tuners currently available. If you have a PC, you'll be very disappointed. Buy it now...

  • Small size, cross platform, includes Mac software.
  • Like all TV Tuners, you need an antenna (or cable service) to actually get a picture, negating the portability/small size of the device.
  • The EyeTV Hybrid is a good, small TV Tuner/Video capture device. It’s ability to tune and hold a channel lock is comparable to that of “full sized” external or expansion card-based tuners, and it works equally well for Mac and PC based machines. The U...

  • Abstract:  We review 3 new tuners that can turn your computer into an HDTV. Diamond, Elgato and Hauppauge compete for easiest-to-use honors. TVs are TVs and PCs are PCs, right? Not any more. As digital entertainment converges with computer technology, media junk...

  • Hardware design – small and tidy package, Powerful hardware; analog/digital tuners, remote control, AVAUX input
  • Costs more than some alternatives, Find More Reviews @ TestFreaks
  • If you use a mac, this is the must-have tuner for setting up a home-theater pc, travelling with a tv tuner, or setting up a desktop DVR. The price is much steeper than other products, but the experience is worth every penny. The hardware is capable and...

  • Abstract:  Most guys are aware that Hulu is one way to watch many popular television shows and movies on any computer with an internet connection. Despite the great free service it provides in exchange for a few ad views though, the site still can't begin to meas...

  • Lets you watch, record, edit, and export TV shows, Works with free and HD programs, Software includes editing functionality,
  • Antenna not included, IR remote requires line-of-sight, Can't set number of episodes to record with Smart Series, Complicated to use with cable or satellite boxes
  • If you live somewhere with good over-the-air reception or have unencrypted cable channels, the EyeTV Hybrid is a great way to watch, record, and convert TV shows. If you’re hoping to use it with your cable or satellite box, it’s still a complicated pr...

  • Ultra portable, Superior digital reception, Superb iTunes-like interface, Impressive export capabilities, Improved EPG with one-click season recordings, Fast channel switching, Decent remote control, Ability to stream recordings over Wi-Fi and the internet
  • Pricey, Lacks bundled antenna, Limited IR blaster compatibility, TV Guide EPG requires subscription after first year, New EPG lacks remote scheduling, So-so analog MPEG-2 encoding...
  • If it weren't for the solid hardware and impressive EyeTV software I'd be in sticker shock, well, maybe I still am... but the EyeTV Hybrid Mac USB TV tuner 2009 is by far the best hybrid stick tuner I've tested to date. Just don't use it for digitizing...
