EyeTV: TV Tuner and Digital Video Recorder for Mac

A Mac-based TV tuner and digital video recorder software, allowing users to watch, pause, and record live TV with Elgato TV tuners.

What is EyeTV?

EyeTV is a digital video recorder (DVR) and TV tuner software application developed by Elgato for macOS. It works with Elgato's USB TV tuners to enable users to watch, pause, and record live over-the-air television on their Mac.

Some key features of EyeTV include:

  • Watch and record free-to-air HD television on your Mac
  • Pause and rewind live TV just like a DVR
  • Schedule recordings for your favorite shows
  • Automatically skip commercials during playback
  • Export recordings to iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and more
  • Stream live TV to other devices around your home
  • Access on-screen program guide data
  • Organize recordings into Smart Groups and Smart Folders

EyeTV requires a supported Elgato TV tuner to function, such as the Elgato EyeTV Hybrid or EyeTV 4K. It also requires a Mac running macOS 10.9 Mavericks or newer. An active TV antenna or other over-the-air TV source is also needed.

The software provides a simple but powerful DVR and TV watching experience for Mac users. With channel guide data and scheduling tools, it aims to make watching and recording TV convenient on a Mac.
