AVerMedia readies Mac-friendly TV tuners

AVerMedia is developing TV tuners and software to match that will support Mac users, the company said today. A shift from the company's typical Windows-only appraoch will see it release a USB tuner that picks up both analog broadcasts as well as over-the-air digital standards, including Europe's DVB-T. The company plans to supply Mac-specific features such as Apple Remote support and a viewing app similar in style to Apple's pro software.

No name has been given to the tuners, though multiple devices should be available during the summer that will more appropriately fit the Mac experience, according to the firm; whether the tuners will offer features similar to Windows versions, such as TV show recording, is also unclear at this time.
