How to watch unencrypted HDTV on a Mac

SilconDust's HDHomeRun now works with EyeTV. In a nutshell that means you can use the box as a tuner for recording over the air or unencrypted (QAM) HDTV signals on a Mac using Elgato's EyeTV software.

The coolest thing about the HDHomeRun is that you can connect the box to your home network using an ethernet cable and you can share the TV tuner among any computer on your network. That means you can record or watch live programming on the PC in the office or the Mac in your bedroom.

If you don't feel like shelling out the cash for a copy of EyeTV, you might want to check out HDhomerunner. A HDHomeRun user is developing his own Mac-based frontend for controlling the box.
