According to Elgato, their EyeTV software will record and edit video. It also converts video for iPods, AppleTVs, and other Macs. According to their site, <a href="http://www.elgato.com/elgato/na/mainmenu/home/what-is-eyetv.en.html" rel="nofollow">"Once the video is in EyeTV you can burn it to DVD for safe keeping."</a> Just make sure it's not the lite version. The Pinnacle tuner reviewed above ships with the lite version of EyeTV. The Elgato tuner ships with the full software. Hi Dane,

Thanks for the comment. According to Elgato, their EyeTV software will record and edit video. It also converts video for iPods, AppleTVs, and other Macs. According to their site, “Once the video is in EyeTV you can burn it to DVD for safe keeping.”

Just make sure it’s not the lite version. The Pinnacle tuner reviewed above ships with the lite version of EyeTV. The Elgato tuner ships with the full software.

My goal is to use a Macbook to record video of TV shows, edit it, and burn it to DVDs for watching in the future. Do you know if any of these solutions allows that capability, or records in a format that will allow editing? This was an extremely helpful article, thank you!
