MediaCentral 2.8.4 stands for sharp pictures and brilliant colors. MediaCentral is perfect to enjoy TV in highest quality on your Mac in your living room. Digital television (DVB-T, DVB-C) and analog TV with one of the compatible devices make the Media Centre experience perfect.

You live in an area with weak DVB-T (DTT) reception? Then you'll be happy to hear that MediaCentral now supports Hauppauge's Nova-TD receiver with two combined digital TV receivers for better reception. Don't live in any DVB-T (DTT) area? Then Hauppauge's HVR-900H is the best solution for you: It integrates an analog and a digital receiver under the hood. Here's a list of all compatible devices. 

MediaCentral now supports the TubeStick hybrid - this means that US users can now incorporate Live TV into their media center Macs. Moreover, the engine that was integrated into the MediaCentral is the same TV engine that we use in The Tube. Learn more about TubeStick hybrid.

MediaCentral lets users watch live digital TV received over-the-air (DVB-T) and utilizes the same TV engine that powers The Tube, the innovative TV software from equinux. Thanks to the new TV engine, MediaCentral offers better picture quality, even with poor reception, faster channel switching and direct playback of recordings stored in The Tube's library. MediaCentral is also more responsive, has updated online content and improves access to iPhoto.

Finally, MediaCentral replaces your TV set: MediaCentral now integrates equinux' recently announced TV receiver TubeStick hybrid. To keep things simple, you just have to choose one of the locations you already scanned with The Tube. With MediaCentral 2.8, good things grow together.

When you choose to watch a program, MediaCentral will display information about the current and upcoming programs, as well as the signal strength. Additional information about the running program can be viewed by simply pressing the i-key. Who needs a TV guide?

Two applications, one channel list - it's that simple thanks to the smooth integration between The Tube and MediaCentral. You can access and customize any channel list you may have already created within The Tube direct from MediaCentral.

Everybody who transforms his Mac into a media center with MediaCentral can abandon the keyboard. Even DVDs will be ejected via your Apple Remote for a perfect entertainment experience.
