The IEEE 1394 interface was created by Apple and is marketed as FireWire on their computers.
In theory you run a FireWire cable from the 1394 connection on your TV to a FireWire socket on your Mac and use some recording software to capture the HDTV signal.
In the real world things are never that simple. The IEEE 1394 interface on the TV is usually there to connect cable TV boxes rather than streaming HD content. There are ways to make this work but there are also many variables (make of TV etc.) that will prevent it from working. (See links below for a fairly old discussion about the topic).
A modern Intel Mac is quite capable of recording HDTV through a USB device, connected directly to the Mac, such as those made by Elgato using their EyeTV software.
