Anyone use a USB device to get TV on their Macs? I don't need DVR, and it must work over-the-air (no cable connection). And I need to get the signal into Jitter to do dastardly things to it.

The most common products out there seem to be Pinnacle Mini Stick and EyeTV Hybrid

Both of them are over 4 years old, and expensive (there are $30 products on the market for Windows). Aereo is $96/year, and I doubt I can get its signal into Jitter, although I'm not sure I can get a signal from a USB stick either.

Any recommendations? Since it's for an art installation running on a Mac Mini, I would greatly prefer not to have big additional hardware.
