I was thinking of buying an external firewire/usb2 (don't care which) TV recorder to watch TV on my mac mini. I would also like to use it as a dvr. So far i have only found 3 products that fit the bill
1. Elgato Eyetv 200
2. Plextor Convertx PVR PX-TV402U-NA/MAC
3. Miglia Evolution TV
Do any of you out there use any of these products? I am especially interested in how much CPU they use while recording/watching as I would like to work at my computer at the same time. I am also interested in recording to mpeg-4/divx. Thanks for any help.
