I don't think there is an OS X-compatible TV tuner, yet. At least, without some CLI work, and very limited features. Formac (www.formac.com) is supposedly working on OS X drivers…
Eskape Labs vowed at MWNY that they'd be supporting OS X very soon. You can read their press release at their site (note the page design using Aqua).
I've had their MyTV/fm for mo…

It performs great for me and I've been very happy with it. I use my computer as my TV with this thing and it gets the job done. There's the option of filling the screen and it work…
It's not size limited, it's whatever size the window is set to.

I tried simply pluging the mini stereo out (Beige G3) to an input on my Sony receiver (phono & CD) and only got a really loud hum. Has anyone else done this successfully? I wo…
My Beige G3 is hooked up to an old receiver through the same mini-stereo jack, but the cable splits into two RCAplugs which I then plug into the back of the stereo. That way, I get…
That's odd. I tried the same thing, a mini stereo plug that splits into 2 RCA plug and a RCA cable about 15' long and all I get is a loud hum. I wonder what is causing that...?
Mi…
I plugged my beige g3 into my Onkyo reciever just fine via the av rca outputs... and my god does it sound awesome http://forums.macnn.com/cgi-bin/smile.gif
The hum you are hearing is probably a bad cable or connection on one end. And hopefully its not a problem with your Mac's audio out port....but just so you know it does work, and …
Ive done this before, and I bet your problem isn't any of the aboce mentioned ones. You need to push in the mini-jack far into the line out jack (headphone) If it doesnt get all …
It still might be a grounding issue (pretty sure, if you get a 60Hz hum--if not, then surely not).
I won't go into explaining the whole physics of it again, but you need to buy a…
I agree with the grounding issue - it's amazing how many people buy good stereo components
and tv's - but then don't bother with making the grounding connection and don't use shiel…
the cheap solution to a "groundbreaker" type of thing is just to plug the computer and stereo into the same wall or power strip. you have to have a really sh!tt# cabling setup to …
The same humming noise happened to me, and it was only because my cable was too long. I went right back to Radio Shack and exchanged the original cable for an identical shorter one…

I don't know if it will help but I had similar problem when trying to connect my VCR to my stereo. To fix it I had to change the input to AUX (from PHONO I think).
If what I said i…
DON'T PLUG YOUR MAC INTO YOUR RECEIVER'S PHONO INPUT!!!
The phono input has an extra preamp stage to boost the (few mV) signal from the (either MM or MC) record player to line lev…
