There are a couple of ways to watch live TV on your Mac – one of which is to use a dedicated hardware-based TV tuner which plugs into your computer and receives digital broadcast TV over the air. Some of them also have coaxial or other inputs so you can hook them up to an external aerial or satellite feed at home. If you’d rather watch TV streamed over the Internet instead, then check out our for the best software-based TV solutions. This article describes a few of the best TV tuners for the Mac – perhaps surprisingly there aren’t that many options available, especially compared to the amount that are available for the PC, but the following tuners should be more than sufficient for most people’s needs.

The tuner itself is a compact size that fits into a spare USB slot on your Mac, and the other end has a full-sized coaxial socket to connect to your TV aerial feed. It also comes with the EyeTV software, which contains a program guide and can also record programmes to disk for later viewing. This is pretty much all you need to watch live TV! Despite it’s small and convenient size, the EyeTV Hybrid may actually be more suitable to use on machines such as the iMac and Mac Mini rather than MacBooks, because it always has to be tethered to an aerial meaning that it’s not as portable as you might think. The EyeTV adaptor is tiny and can receive DVB-T, DVB-C and analogue transmissions 2. PCTV nanoStick Ultimate Plus Link: Price: $92 / £59 approx.
