The turbo.264 from Elgato Systems is a USB hardware accelerator for H.264 video encoding. The compact device plugs into an available USB port. It includes software for Mac to convert QuickTime video to the MPEG-4 H.264 format used by the iPod, Apple TV, and Sony PSP. Software-based conversion can take up to an hour for a 10-minute video; the turbo.264 cuts that time to less than 12 minutes. This is an excellent option for anyone who has video content that they would like to play on their Apple TV, iPod, or Sony PSP.
