Review: Elgato Turbo.264 H.264 Encoder - Reg Hardware
Reg Hardware have published a review of the Elgato Turbo.264 H.264 Encoder which converts your Mac videos to H.264 (MP4) files). 'Apple TV and iPod. Sony PlayStation Portable. Different devices, but united in common support of the H.264 video compression technology, part of the MPEG 4 standard. And since a lot of us own these, the need for H.264-encoded content is high. The snag: it takes a heck of a lot of processing power to produce. Enter Turbo.264, a dedicated H.264 encoder made by Mac TV tuner specialist Elgato. The size of a large Flash drive, Turbo.264 plugs into a free USB 2.0 slot ready to take over H.264 video encoding from the host processor.'
