A fellow I work with just bought a Raedon All in Wonder, for his IGhz Athalon. Now he can save TV in Mpeg 2 in real time. A 1h20min movie was 4 gigs small at its "best" setting. And it looks good! This is a lot easier than my current record throught DV devices method.
Does anyone know if this is, or will be, available for the Mac anytime soon?

Thanks
Chuck

ATi has been reluctant in the past to make Mac versions of their "All-in-Wonder" video cards. Don't hold your breath.

I for one would like to see a TiVo (or similar device) with a FireWire connector. Plug it into your Mac and it mounts on your desktop like a hard disk.
