![]() ![]() You can change settings in full screen mode as expected. It pops back up if you move the mouse (that’s why its in all my screen shots!) but it does go away if you’re using the IR remote. In full screen mode, the on-screen remote disappears after a few seconds. ![]() Eyetv hyprid software#Navigation via the keyboard, on screen remote, or physical remote was straightforward, and the software worked equally well in windowed mode (in case you wanted to work with the TV on in the background) or in full screen mode. It performed as expected during the review. The EyeTV 3 software is a full featured DVR, with built in program guide, scheduler, series recorder, and timeshifting/pausing live TV. You can also use your Mac remote, if your Macintosh has one. After a few setup screens, success again:Īs with Windows, the EyeTV remote fully controls the software. I used the same Digital over the air antenna, and (not surprisingly!) found the same channels. Installation went without a hitch:Īs in the case with Windows, the setup detects the device and walks you though setting up/detecting channels, and determining what guide you should be using based on your service.

Windows 7 can’t take a screen shot of a full-screen video overlay, so first here is a shot of PBS in a window. I tuned to a couple of HD channels and verified that both 720p and 1080i HDTV works fine. The EyeTV remote is fully supported under WMC and, assuming you can see the dongle itself with the remote, works fine from normal “couch” distance of 6-10 feet. Very promising! Continuing on for another few setup screens finally leads to victory: Any HINTS on this? (Thank you for any help.) I had submitted this to Elgato a couple weeks ago I have had no response, except for an RMA "promise." The unit is TERRIFIC when it works! I only have difficulty if I try to run the unit after the 24" iMac has been asleep.This is showing that, when plugged into my very large HDTV antenna coax cable (we’ll get back to that at the end, I promise!) WMC and the EyeTV agree that they can see lots of HDTV over the air channels. ![]() > Thank you for sending the replacement unit out! -I would like to add some more info to this case, just in the remote possibility that there is yet some possible resolution to our Hybrid unit failing to "INITIALIZE."
