FeaturesTop
A perfect fit for your Mac
EyeTV DTT Deluxe is almost impossibly tiny. Barely larger than a USB connector, it is the very smallest full-featured DVB-T stick available anywhere. EyeTV DTT Deluxe delivers powerful digital TV (DTT or Freeview) reception, cutting-edge technology, clean design, and extreme portability in one diminutive device.
And of course EyeTV DTT Deluxe comes with award-winning EyeTV 3 software which makes it easy to watch, record, edit and enjoy all your favorite TV shows on a Mac.
Watch Digital Television (DVB-T) on your Mac or PC
Watch, record, edit, and enjoy TV on a Mac or PC with this incredibly tiny digital TV tuner. EyeTV DTT Deluxe combines cutting-edge technology with clean design to deliver high-performance and extreme portability.
The very smallest full-featured DVB-T television tuner available anywhere, EyeTV DTT Deluxe is a perfect fit for any Mac or PC. EyeTV DTT Deluxe slips easily into the USB port of even a MacBook Air without blocking other devices.
EyeTV DTT Deluxe includes an infrared remote and offers full-screen menus for comfortable TV viewing.
Superb Quality Television, including HDTV
Despite its extraordinary size, EyeTV DTT Deluxe is a powerful digital TV tuner that delivers full-size, crystal-clear reception and uncompromising quality. In areas in which high-definition television is broadcast via DVB-T, experience stunning 720p or 1080i HDTV, in MPEG-2 and H.264/AVC.
EyeTV DTT Deluxe has one quality setting, Lossless. The DVB stream is recorded unaltered to give you the full quality MPEG-2/H.264 file as encoded by the broadcaster. EyeTV supports DVB-T multilingual programming and Dolby® Digital sound.
Options for Aerial Reception
Beautifully designed, EyeTV DTT Deluxe comes with a variety of options for aerial reception. The miniature telescopic aerial attaches neatly to the end of the TV stick without wires or cables, and a larger portable rod antenna is also included as an alternative.
EyeTV DTT Deluxe’s included telescopic aerial and rod antenna are primarily intended for use in areas in which DVB-T broadcasting stations emit enough power for portable DVB-T reception. If necessary, the included IEC-MCX adapter may also be used to connect any type of active aerial that has an independent power source, or with a passive aerial such as a rooftop aerial.

Elgato EyeTV DTT Deluxe er langt fra den eneste USB-kompatible DVB-T-tuner på markedet, men i kombinationen af software og hardware er den genial.
Thomas Vigild, Politiken.dk
Elgato have pushed digital television technology to the limit releasing the most breathtakingly small TV adaptor with all the power to deliver stunning full screen television. This device is every gadget fan’s dream and it deserves to be marvelled as much as it is to be enjoyed.
David John, TotalApps.net
"Overall, the interface of the EyeTV Programs software, coupled with the excellent software remote was very intuitive and a cinch to operate. While we are fairly experienced with using a cornucopia of software, we would go out on a limb and say that the EyeTV software, when coupled with the EyeTV DTT Deluxe, is about as easy to use as it can get."
Paul Moons, Digital Reviews Network
"Elgato’s all-in products for TV on the Mac are great and the software is almost perfect, and in this case the tuner is tiny. Ideal for laptop users, the DTT Deluxe gives you truly portable TV."
Cliff Joseph, Macworld UK
"TV-on-Mac specialist Elgato's latest offering has two features it hopes will win over buyers: the MacBook Air-friendly size and its inclusion of the most recent digital video recorder software. We think there's a third reason to buy: a superior aerial design. The Deluxe is tiny - smaller than any other USB TV tuner we've seen and quite a few USB Flash drives for that matter."
