Miglia introduces the TVMax+

March 16, 2007  

Making good on their word, Miglia has introduced their latest Hardware TV Tuner for your Macintosh. Like most tuners on the market, TVMax+ functions as a DVR and allows your to export your recordings to your AppleTV, iPod, or iTunes. All this for £143.00 or roughly $270 USD.

This tuner is unique in the fact that it is design to stack under your Macintosh Mini. Sharing the same form factor the TVMax+ compliments your media center nicely. The included remote allows you full control of the PVR software, which is an excellent upgrade from the 6 button Apple Remote. This tuner also requires an external power source, as the USB2.0 interface probably does not provide enough juice for proper functionality.

The encoding behind the TVMax+ is the main difference between the it and the previous model, the TVMax. The new software takes advantage of the building in hardware encoder making transfers faster and less processor intensive.

Specs:

Host Interface: USB 2.0 (B Type connector)
TV Tuner: Analog Tuner, Cable TV ready, up to 125 channels
Antenna Connection: Antenna or Cable box
Video Inputs: Composite (RCA) and S-Video
Audio Inputs: 2 RCA Connectors, stereo 48 KHz, 16 Bits stereo capture
Recording Formats: iPod Good, iPod Best, Apple TV, DVD ready, Full size (Mpeg4) DIVX Portable, DIVX Home Theater

Miglia TVMax+ is unique in it design, however there are less expensive tuners on the market that can handle the same load. At close to $270, we believe they have over priced this device based on the markets average tv tuner pricing, and their previous version sells for $180.00
