37 of 37 people found the following review helpful Does what it says it does, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Elgato EyeTV One Computer TV Tuner (10020311) (Personal Computers) So my wife and I canceled our satellite TV subscription, we grew tired of rising cost. We decided to try out the free over-the-air antenna and internet methods of watching TV. We always wanted DVR service but didn't want to pay for the DVR Box and monthly fee associated with subscribing to DVR service. After canceling our satellite TV subscription, I built a home theater media center out of a used Mac Mini (see my Mac Mini review), through research I found out about EyeTV and figured it was worth a try. Our Terk HDTVa over-the-air antenna was doing a great job of bringing in HD channels and like I said before, we'd always wanted DVR capabilities.The installation of the EyeTv USB Tuner was easy, just plug the USB end into your computer and the cable end to the antenna (or cable splitter). The installation of software would of have been easy except for the fact that the default TV Guide data would not download so it seemed like the installation process was stuck. I...

I have the Eyetv One, and the Eyetv Hybrid. This tuner is the best way to record free OTA HD tv brodcasts. You can pause, record, live TV straight from your Mac. Once you have a recording you can edit out the commercials, then either send it to iTunes, or buy the Eyetv App for the iPhone, and watch your recordings on the go. With the Software, and hardware you have the ultimate way to cut out your cable bill, and enjoy excellend HD broadcasts. 8 of 9 people found the following review helpful Make sure you have a powered USB hub before using!, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Elgato EyeTV One Computer TV Tuner (10020311) (Personal Computers) UPDATED REVIEW -After ordering and receiving a replacement for the failed unit as reviewed below through Amazon, I am happy to say that the new one has pretty much been flawless. My experience with the new unit has been using it solely with a powered usb hub. I am pretty sure that using the built in ports on the iMac, with the first one, caused its demise. My theory is that the Mac can't handle the power draw required and subsequently shuts it off, frying the tuner in the process. There is no way I can prove this and I am not willing to mess around with a hundred dollar piece of hardware to do so. The unit itself should be treated very carefully, don't plug it directly into your mac's usb ports and don't remove it while the EyeTV software is running. I was having quite a bit of trouble placing my antenna (Terk HDTVa about 30-40 miles away from towers in rural area) to get reception and it pretty much took most of my day to find a reliable spot. The signal strength was... Read more |
