Elgato is releasing the eyeTV 250 mid-May. According to the website: "Game Mode: Connect game consoles to your Mac. The Game Mode feature operates with USB 2.0 and turns off hardware encoding for zero latency game play." eyeTV looks pretty nice for those of us looking for to make our Macs more entertaining, ie through TV shows and video games.

Great
But it doesn't say if it will work with HD gaming. I know it says it'll show HDTV on intel Macs, but nothing about the gaming quality. The TV-signals will be converted to mpeg1 & mpeg2, and this will be possible to show as HD, but for games there will be no conversion. What this will mean for quality?... I have no idea.

Just read this:

If you hook a cable box or satellite receiver up to EyeTV 200, EyeTV 250 and EyeTV EZ, then you will see all non-HD channels.

And this:

=========
EyeTV EZ and EyeTV 250 offer zero latency capture. They are the only EyeTV products suitable for playing video games in real time.

So, no HDTV, and the Game Mode is the same as EyeTV EZ.
