Tv tuner card for imac 400mhz powerpc g3

tv tuner card for imac 400mhz powerpc g3 - 256ram - I'm running os x 10.3.9. Does anyone know of a tv tuner card or device that I can use to watch tv on my imac?

Unfortunately most of these TV devices require USB2 bandwidth so are not suitable for the iMac G3.
The Firewire versions (EyeTV 310, 410 and 610 depending on input type) are the only options.
The EyeTV 250 is an analogue only Tuner that does work on USB1.1 but in a low quality mode only.

TV Tuner card for MAC

Can anyone suggest the right tuner card for my iMac that will allow me to access my fios TV service on my computer?
Thanks!

Are you looking for a tuner that lets you watch local programming without a cable box? Or are you wanting to watch all the channels that you are subscribed to?
If you are just wanting local channels. Then Items like these are likely what you are looking for.
If you want all the channels the Verizon provides, you will need to connect a STB to your computer. You will need something like this to link a STB to your computer.

TV tuner Card for Mac with Component input

Hey everyone, I was hoping someone could help me find a good TV Tuner card for my MacBook. I found a few potentials, however I've yet to find one with Component input that would allow me to play my XBox 360 at a resolution of 1050p. This is the resolution of my stand-alone monitor, and with S-Video the resolution would drop into the 400's. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Sean

Does this work with a Mac? Looks like from the screenshots this is only compatible with Vista
I'm also looking for something that also has a coaxle input along with the component input, so that I can watch TV!

Which TV-tuner card for MEGA 180

Hello,
Just wondering which is the best tv-tuner card for the MEGA 180 which still enables the use of the original remote control.
I know the MS-8606-040 provides this but seems rather basic, the other model (MS-8606-010, TV@anywhere card) comes with its own remote control but can you use the one provided with the 180?
Any other makes which do the job?
Thanks

The reason for this is the Microsoft requirement that any recording does not use more than 50% of the CPU processing time, hence I think you will find that all have a hardware MPEG2 encoder built in (that's why they are mostly the PVR versions).

How to install Bluetooth Card in imac g5 powerpc?

I have an imac G5 PowerPC with 20" screen. I didn't get a Bluetooth Card factory installed but recently decided I needed it so I bought one from a 3rd party vendor. Question is how can I install it?
I don't really care about voiding warranty, so if someone can point me in the right direction it would be most appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for the response. I guess the question I have is then if there is no way to install a bluetooth card into an iMac G5, why is this part sold? Indeed, Apple even has a part number for it.
Do I trash the little guy that I already purchase and buy a dongle (I've always wanted a dongle....)? Or is there some way to get the card installed, as (a) I don't want to sacrifice yet another USB port and (b) I already own the thing! I would take suggestions such as:
- Just bring it to a dealer and they can install it for you (helpful, if true);
or
- Ideally, the method by which the end-user can install it at the expense of the warranty (question solved) is: <Follow that link>.
Much obliged as always. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Best Graphics and Tuner Card for 865 Pro with XP MCE (Maybe Vista?)

Hi all,
I'm looking at rebuilding my 865 Pro
I haven't upgraded the graphics so what do people recommend as the best AGP card for the 865 Pro
I have the MSI tuner but I am looking a ditching instant on for MCE would like to get a idea for digital tuning card (I'm in the UK). Would anybody recommend using a combined AGP/Tuner card like the ATI All in Wonder cards or using a USB Tuner?
I am thinking I will have to stick with XP because of driver support. I have dual boot to Vista at the moment but the wifi doesn't work.
Idea and Suggestions welcome
Danny

Thanks for the reply Stu.
I tried installing the XP wi-fi driver in Vista and I couldn't get it to work. I didn't try harder as the Mega 865 Pro is not supposed to be Vista compatible.
Is there a 3rd party driver I should try?
The reason I would like to upgrade the graphics is to have the option to play some games and I am beginning to find limitation with the on board graphics. I tried to check out second life on the mega the other week and it wouldn't set up because the graphics wasn't up to it.
I have tried installing a dedicated APG card before - the Gigabyte nVidia Geforce 6600 with heatpipe passive cooling.
It is a great card but I found every now and then the PC would crash with it running. It is a very tight fit with the TV tuner card and the airflow wasn't good.
So I am looking at using a small APG card or replacing the tuner. That’s why a combined card seemed to make sense and would free up the PCI slot.
As power is a problem for some graphics cards is upgrading the PSU an option?
Thanks
Danny

TV Tuner Card for MEGA PC

Hi All!
Recently I've added a TV tuner Card (MS-8606) to my MEGA PC 651. This card is not TV@nywhere, but very similar one. It is the "optional TV tuner card" MSI talks about in the description of MEGA PCs. The card does not have FM tuner, as MEGA PC already have one on the motherboard.
I've installed the card and the standard MSI software (drivers, MSIPVS, Cinema , WinSchedule and other stuff) from the supplied CD with minimum difficulties. (The drivers on CD are version 2.79.1.64) The good things is that the software finds channels, there is picture, even the remote works
However, there is an annoying problem -- sound disappears each 2-15 seconds. That is sound works for, say, 20 seconds, then stops for 2 seconds, then works again for 5 seconds, then stops and so on. Did anybody encounter such a problem?

Probably not anymore
It was just a TV@nywhere Master, but without the FM radio tuner.

Best graphic/tuner cards for 865

hi everyone out there, just need a quick answer, really nothing too complicated
firstly i have a mega 865 and have installed windows media center 2005 on it (all is well )
but now i want to connect it to my plasma screen that is hd ready
i play games like doom 3 and also want to watch my downloaded movies via the mega
which graphic card would you kind people recommend as there are hundreds out there and a bit confused
also i want to record tv on to the mega from my sky box (digital )and from my aerial (analogue ) can you recomend a good tv tuner card
ps
if there is one that does both maybe that would be better
cheers everyone
ps ps
on a tangent, i know this might sound daft but what is the difference between a full sized g card and a express g card and which one would be best in the mega 865
nidge

This is the same question I posted a few weeks ago. Someone recommended me the radeon 9600xt so I bought the gfx card that appears on my signature. You need to add a little fan besides the card (and the radio module) to extract hot air, as the card completely blocks the airflow. The card works really fine!!
Express card? Do you mean PCI Express? That is a new type of expansion slot and, of course, it's not compatible with AGP cards so, if your mobo have a pci express slot (and not an agp one), you have to buy a pci express card. That isn't the case of our Megas (only have one AGP slot and one old PCI)
And the difference between full an half size is, of couse, how large is the card. The more little, the better airflow. Not sure but, in addition, I think that full size cards don't fit inside Megas.

Hello Niel
Thanks. I didn't realize that I can get up to a TB! Wow! What type of TB do I buy, any suggestions of specific ones? Is there G5 specific Tb disks to install? Or just any as long as they have the right measurement size? And what size do I need to remain within?

Which system for iMac 400MHz 384MB RAM?

Hello,
I'm going to buy old iMac with 400MHz G3, 384MB RAM and 10GB HDD. Please, what is your experience with Jaguar/Panther/Tiger on such computer? Which one is most suitable/swift? I'd like to do programming most (Xcode), no extreme audio/video.
Thank you for your answers

When buying a used iMac G3 refer to this table - it will give you a good idea whether the specs on ebay are bull or not - it especially helps in finding out the exact colour of iMac you're getting and the VRAM/Video card etc. For example there never was a 500MHz iMac with CD-ROM (unless the owner built it to order).
First question. I've never had any success with booting form an external USB device - it's worth a go though!
If not; use the Media Exchange Programme from Apple to exchange your Tiger DVD for CDs.
Second question: iMac Slot Loaders have 2 x PC100 168pin DIMM slots under a fold open cover (no screw driver required - just a coin!). In my experience, under OS 9, I used to throw in any old cheap RAM - bought from anywhere cheap (I was at Uni at the time - and my house mates (PC owners) and I would chop and change computer parts all over! The final state I maxed it out with 1Gb of PC133 RAM from Crucial and my mother is now using that machine at university . Personally I've found newer Macs (i.e. iMac G4 is my latest) and OS X to be more fussy when it comes to RAM. I would recommend buying from a Mac friendly supplier if you plan on using OS X.
It needn't be much more expensive (- and you'll get it half the price we pay over here). Check out RAMSEEKER for good prices. Obviously living this side of the world I have no real experience of their service - but it is reputed to be good!
Before you install OS X on an iMac G3 for the first time you must update the firmware (whilst booted in OS 9.1).
Hope this helps.

Tv tuner card for mega 865 pro

I have seen in MSI web page for Czech that there is a new TV tuner for Mega 865 pro. Is this card the one that will fit into the new Mega pc allowing instant on features?
If yes, could some one confirm the features of this card and when will be available in other countries?
thanks

How to contact MSI.
as far as i'm aware, this new card is not yet currently available

Can one upgrade the graphic card for Imac (intel based)?

can one upgrade the graphic card in an Imac (intel based)?

While anything is theoretically possible, you would need to find another GPU that is compatible with your specific model iMac, and you would need to modify OS X to use a driver appropriate for whatever you propose to install. Future OS X updates would break it in short order. Not only that, you'd void whatever warranty that remains. It's not worth it.

Redeem i tunes card for my daughter

My daughter has an itunes gift card which she goty for her birthday. She also recieved an Ipod shuffle. She is only 8 years old. I havwe synced the Ipod with my own apple ID and Itunes. If and when she wants to purchase something using her gift card, will all of the credit automatically transfer to my own I tunes account? If so am I able to seperate any cedit associated with her card from my own purchases.

Would that involve creating a new user account,
That would be done by creating a new iTunes account with the gift card.

Wireless 802.11n card for iMac G5

I am running a 802.11n wireless network (linksys) with WPA Personal security. Is there any USB or internal adapter to allow a wireless connection to my home network. I have a iMac G5 Power mac 8.2 and the airport card worked fine with the g class network? Apple's official stance is that they do not provide or support any external or 3rd party device to assist. They suggest I drop back dwon to a g network. So much for cutting edge...

rottencore, Welcome to the discussion area!
There is no internal solution. For an external USB solution, look at Quickertek.
