Elgato's EyeTV 2.4 adds Apple TV support

Elgato has released EyeTV 2.4, an update to its DVR (digital video recording) application that introduces Apple TV support. The latest release of EyeTV allows users to send clips to the device in a single click, much like sending clips to an iPod. The software supports sending content such as TV shows to an Apple TV set top box automatically, and users can set the program to an export schedule. The EyeTV device itself comes in two versions to capture video and sound directly from a desired source -- such as a camcorder, VCR, digital cable box, or satellite receiver -- and encodes that content into the MPEG format in real time. The EyeTV 250 is priced at $200, while the EyeTV Hybrid US is available for $150.

DLO ships Jam Jackets

DLO releases new Jam Jacket cases

Digital Lifestyle Outfitters has begun shipping its new Jam Jacket cases for Apple's video iPod and iPod nano. The new protective cases feature DLO's "Headphone Management System" which wraps up extra cord length via an attachment on the back, holding stray earbuds in place. The new cases are similar to previous cases with regard to protection, covering the clickwheel while still allowing control. A rubber lining on the outside aims to ensure a good grip on the portable player, and openings permit access to the hold switch as well as the headphone jack and dock connector. Each Jacket is available for $20, with the Nano case shipping in black or translucent white colors while the video edition comes only in black.
