Elgato is a German based vendor of DVB devices that are targeted towards Mac OS-X users. Their OS-X based software is quite well-designed, maybe it's worth a look as source of inspiration for other DVB application developers and GUI designers.

Elgato initially provided only FireWire/IEEE1394 DVB receivers (see DVB-T IEEE1394 Devices), but have since branched out with more interface options.

The EyeTV range has been acquired by Geniatech who released several DVB-T2 devices under the EyeTV brand.
