Elgato Systems has received the 20th Annual Editors' Choice Award from the MacWorld editorial team for its EyeTV 200 product.

The EyeTV 200 received the prestigious Eddy Award in the category "Hardware of the Year" for being the "Best Way to Watch TV on Your Mac." Elgato Systems' EyeTV 200 is based on Vweb's MPEG-1, 2 and 4 Audio/Video/System Encoder Chip, VW2005.

In announcing the award, MacWorld cited: "Elgato System's EyeTV 200 is like TiVO for your Mac. Sure, it lets you watch TV on your Mac's screen. But its true power lies in its ability to pause, replay, search, schedule, and record that TV. Its high-quality MPEG-2 encoder means that your favorite shows not only look good, but (thanks to the tight integration with Roxio's Toast) are also ready to archive to DVD."

"The winning of the 20th Annual MacWorld Editor's Choice Award by our customer Elgato Systems highlights the innovations of our customer as well as the performance and the quality of the technology that Vweb is delivering," says Dr. Sho Long Chen, President and CEO of Vweb Corporation.

"Thanks to Vweb's outstanding MPEG-1, 2 and 4 Audio/Video/System Encoder Chip, the VW2005, the EyeTV 200 capture quality is head and shoulders above any other solution. We are very excited about this important recognition from the MacWorld editorial team," says Dr. Markus Fest, founder of Elgato Systems.
