Hauppauge has announced the release of its new 'Wing' software, enabling consumers to record TV shows on a personal computer for playback on the PSP and other portable video players. Wing can also be used to convert existing TV recordings to the PSP format.
Wing is sold as a $24.95 accessory to Hauppauge's PC-based WinTV-PVR personal video recorders. Live TV shows can be recorded with a single click and played on a PC or TV set as well as a portable video player. Wing records in H.264, MPEG-4 and Divx formats, and also will record directly to a recordable DVD disk.
The Wing application comes with three components: a plug-in for the popular TitanTV internet based electronic program guide for automatic recording of TV shows, a plug-in for Hauppauge's WinTV Scheduler for manual TV record scheduling, and an off-line recorder which will turn MPEG -2 videos into any of the formats supported by Wing.
Hauppage's Eskape Labs division is also developing a version of Wing for the Apple Mac using the myTV.PVR, the Eskape Labs Mac-based personal video recorder. That product will be released in early 2006.
