Watch Digital Terrestrial Television (DVB-T) on your Mac
EyeTV DTT combines a USB stick that is a state-of-the-art television receiver with EyeTV software. EyeTV DTT brings free-to-air digital terrestrial television to your Mac in crystal clear digital quality. In areas in which HDTV is broadcast, enjoy watching stunning 720p or 1080i HDTV (MPEG-2 as well as H.264/AVC) on your Mac.

Superb Television Reception
EyeTV DTT is a powerful TV tuner in a small package. The USB stick represents the latest technology in television reception, providing you the best in free, high-quality live TV on your Mac anywhere digital terrestrial television is broadcast.

EyeTV DTT’s included rod aerial is primarily intended for use in areas where DVB-T broadcasting stations emit enough power for portable DVB-T reception. If necessary, it may also be used with any type of active aerial that has an independent power source, or with a passive aerial such as a rooftop aerial.

Navigate with an Apple Remote
Tired of remote controls scattered around the living room? So are we. If your Mac came with an Apple Remote, you can use it to navigate the EyeTV software’s Full Screen Menu. EyeTV DTT is fully compatible with the EyeTV Remote, which is sold separately and is available at the Elgato Online Store.

Superb quality recordings
EyeTV DTT has one quality setting, lossless. The DVB stream is recorded unaltered, and so you’re getting full quality DVB-T content as encoded by the broadcaster. EyeTV DTT supports DVB-T multilingual programming and Dolby® Digital sound.

Made for the Mac
The elegant EyeTV DTT is so slim that it slips beautifully beside the MacBook Pro’s MagSafe power connector without covering any other ports. And despite it’s slender profile, EyeTV DTT contains a full-size and built-in coaxial plug. EyeTV DTT does not require an adapter to connect a rooftop aerial
