So what sort of PVR software comes with it?

Can all of the functions of it be run with the included remote (in other words can you run it all from the couch)?

How does that software compare to Sage or Beyond?

How does the picture quality compare with the WinTV-150's?

From what I can telll from the screenshot the software it come with is not even close to SageTV or BeyondTV being it Electronic Program Guide is thur TitanTV so there for it Web Base Scheduler just like Windows user that are using WinTV2000.

My guest is most likely it will not even come to it, Note: I don't own one so it hard to say for sure on what you can do, but my best guest is you need a more powerful PVR UI like MythTV Front-end for Mac or hope lee Jeff will port SageTV to Mac that support this device under Mac OS.

How does that software compare to Sage or Beyond?
This will be more like a compare to Windows user WinTV2000, As it stand rigth now the UI and Layout is all ready 10x better then WinTV2000 and do belive ever thing build in to one UI unlike Windows ver software.

Picture quality compare to Windows WinTV-150, 500 or USB2 should be the same after all it the same hardware.

Thanks, being a "MacHead" I am happy to see that there is something usable coming out for Mac. It would be very cool to use a Mac Mini with something like this, since it has alot of built in features, small size, quiet, built in audio, ethernet, DVI or S-video out etc. (only drawback is the small HD).

I thing the reason why the Mac Mini drive are so small is becuase it using a 2.5 Notebook / Laptop Hard Drive.
So in that case the only real option are Network Attached Storage or External USB/Firewire Storage being the big 2.5 drive I know of is only 100GB.

I recently bought the hauppauge Mytv.pvr. I was loving it and still would love it if it still worked properly. Just recently it stopped working.
The problem I'm having is that the power indicator light goes off and the unit is undetected by my comp. I can get the light to come on when the USB cable is not plugged into my computer. As soon I plug connect to the computer the light goes out and the software application reports "not responding" and never opens.

Ive tried

PLEAAAAASE tell me there is a god.... and tell me why this magnificent device has stopped working!!

Going to need some more info. Do you have a link to this product. I haven't heard of an Hauppauge myth.pvr product.

PS Why did you ppost here and not start a new post? If this old post related to your product somehow?

Got it to work today! It was a simple issue. I had to reboot a few times but i was using a USB hub and I think it had something to do with that. Since it was working on that hub before and it is now still working with it. I dont know what went wrong.

The device written in the subject of this discuccusion is my product. You can see it in the screenshots at the top of this discussion. It's pretty awesome.

It has worked flawlessly for me. However, I hooked up my laptop to my TV screen and the resolution ratios in the hauppauge preferences are limited to 640X480 800X600 and custom

Glad to hear it. I haven't seen one of those before but it looks like an pvr-usb2 that's been rebranded. Glad to hear it's working though. If you find you need more support I'm guessing a search for either one of these products might help turn up some more results:

http://www.hauppauge.com/site/products/data_mytvpvr.html
http://www.hauppauge.com/site/products/data_pvrusb2.html

The first one is your product and the second one is the one I was thinking about. I think the only difference is that the Mac one (yours) is colored to have a Mac look and includes Mac software. Otherwise (someone correct me if I'm wrong) I think they're the same product. And since you're using linux the software doesn't matter.
