| 1214710 | 2011-07-04 10:43:00 | will this work on a mac? www.elive.co.nz if no are there any that do and aren't $100+? and just to check you just plug these things in and can watch any free to air tv yeah? |

| 1214711 | 2011-07-04 10:54:00 | For windows, once you install the drivers and AverTV, you can watch freeview yup. Unless a mac installs drivers for it, I dont think it'll work. There are no drivers for Mac on the Avermedia site This works tho www.avermedia-usa.com If you can find it Or this www.avermedia.com |

| 1214712 | 2011-07-04 11:09:00 | @Fishy. If you look at the system requirements a 'Mac is not mentioned so I would think not generally speaking. Unless you run an emulator maybe? |

| 1214713 | 2011-07-04 12:14:00 | It might be supported under Linux depending on the chipset... | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1214714 | 2011-07-04 12:25:00 | And then again possibly not. Perhaps the OP can put Linux on a Mac. |

| 1214715 | 2011-07-04 23:19:00 | I am picking that it will just work as the MAC OS is similar to Linux and with Linux you don't need to install rivers for every little thing. | mikebartnz (21) | ||
| 1214716 | 2011-07-04 23:33:00 | But Linux was designed to run as many devices as possible, Mac OS is designed to run on Apple hardware (which is a much smaller group of devices) | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1214717 | 2011-07-04 23:39:00 | So is anyone going to try this hardware mentioned by the OP on a 'Mac and get it to work so there is a definitive answer rather than guesses? | Snorkbox (15764) | ||
| 1214718 | 2011-07-04 23:40:00 | He probably doesn't want to buy something that might not work | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1214719 | 2011-07-04 23:43:00 | Well the 2 links I gave the drivers are on the site. So, they'll work | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
