High-Quality TV Tuners
The Pinnacle TV for Mac family is comprised of three models, including the:

  • Pinnacle TV for Mac DVB-T Stick – which allows European users to watch, TimeShift and record their favorite digital TV and radio (DVB-T) programs.
  • Pinnacle TV for Mac Hybrid Stick – which delivers the same functionalities as the DVB-T Stick and adds analog TV reception. It also acts as a video capture device.

In addition to watching TV, users can take advantage of the TimeShifting feature to pause and rewind their favorite shows. The sticks also turn any Mac into a full personal video recorder (PVR), allowing users to record shows on the fly or schedule recordings ahead of time using the integrated electronic program guide (EPG). Users can save recordings on the Mac’s hard drive in DVD-quality MPEG-2 format. The included A/V adapter cable also enables users to import video from external sources such as a camcorder, making it a handy no-hassle solution for transferring video to a Mac computer.
