  • Operating Systems: Windows XP (incl. MCE 2004/2005) with SP2, or Vista* (any of the 4 flavors) or Windows 7 or Mac OS X Intel 10.5 or later **
  • Processor: a Pentium IV 2.4Ghz or AMD Athlon 3200+ CPU
  • Memory: 1GB of RAM, and a few GB of disk space (primarily for your TV or webcam recordings)
  • Internet connection: Always-on broadband Internet connection (cable, DSL, etc.) on your Orb-PC
  • To watch live TV : you will need a TV tuner (tuner with built-in hardware MPEG2 encoder). If your TV feed is via a set-top box, then to change channels via Orb / OrbLive additionally you would need an USB Infra-Red (IR) Blaster such as the ones included in Microsoft MCE-compatible Remote Control devices.
  • To stream your webcam: you need an USB webcam attached to your PC
  • OrbLive is compatible with iPhone and iPod touch. (Requires iPhone 2.x software update.)

* At this time, the Orb IR blaster program (for changing local TV channels on a set-top box) does not work on Vista Home Basic and Business editions.

** Currently we do not support Live TV on Mac
