===High-Definition Personal Video Recorder===
In May 2008, Hauppauge released the HD-PVR, a [[USB 2.0]] device with an on-board [[H.264]] hardware encoder for recording from high-definition sources through component inputs. It is the world's first USB device that can capture in [[High-definition video|high definition]]. The HD-PVR has proved to be a very popular device, and Hauppauge has been updating its [[device driver|drivers]] and software continually since its release.{{Citation needed|date=May 2024}} In addition to being able to capture from any component video source in [[480p]], [[720p]], or [[1080i]], the HD-PVR comes with an IR blaster that communicates with your cable or satellite [[set-top box]] for automated program recordings and channel-changing capabilities. In 2012, Hauppauge released the HD-PVR Gaming Edition 2, which features a much smaller design than its predecessor along with [[1080p]] [[HDMI]] support. The PVR is not officially supported on [[Macintosh]] systems, but a variety of third-party programs exist that allow it to function on OS X, including EyeTV by [[Elgato]] and HDPVRCapture. In 2013, Hauppauge released an upgrade for the existing HD-PVR 2 with the HD-PVR 2 Gaming Edition Plus, which supports Macintosh systems.
