====macOS==== Geniatech makes a series of digital video recording devices called EyeTV. The software supplied with each device is also called EyeTV, and is available separately for use on compatible third-party tuners from manufacturers such as Pinnacle, TerraTec, and Hauppauge. [[SageTV]] provided DVR software for the Mac but no longer sells it.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.geektonic.com/2011/06/whats-next-for-sagetv-customers-post.html |title=What's Next for SageTV Customers Post-Google? |publisher=GeekTonic |date=2011-06-21 |access-date=2011-11-21}}</ref> Previously sold devices support the Hauppauge HVR-950, myTV.PVR and HDHomeRun hardware with its DVR software. SageTV software also included the ability to watch YouTube and other online video with a remote control. [[MythTV]] (see above) also runs under [[Mac OS X]], but most recording devices are currently only supported under Linux. Precompiled binaries are available for the MythTV front-end, allowing a Mac to watch video from (and control) a MythTV server running under Linux. Apple provides applications in the FireWire software developer kit which allow any Mac with a FireWire port to record the MPEG2 transport stream from a FireWire-equipped cable box (for example: Motorola DCT62xx, including HD streams). Applications can also change channels on the cable box via the firewire interface. Only broadcast channels can be recorded as the rest of the channels are encrypted. ''FireRecord (formerly iRecord)'' is a free scheduled-recording program derived from this SDK.
