As I said earlier, one of the EyeTV features is the ability to export your recordings to iTunes for the AppleTV or iPod/iPhone/iPad. Second, transferring recordings to iTunes is blazing fast. I do not get any premium channels, so I am unable to confirm or deny this feature. The press material also says it can record premium channels that other EyeTV devices cannot record. The EyeTV HD records HD and non-HD channels (you do have to have an HD signal going to the device to get HD channels). Now I am getting true HD recordings that look great. With my Hybrid I was recording HD channels, but only getting the digital signal. Once I started using the EyeTV HD I found out what I was missing in this little silver box that looks like a baby Mac Mini.įirst, EyeTV HD records TRUE HD programming. This was reminiscent of the old VCR days and not have a VCR that could tune in channels.īefore trying the EyeTV HD I thought I had everything I needed, and wasn’t even really sure what was different in this $200 box that I needed.

Without the IR blaster the TV would always have to be set to the channel I wanted to record ahead of time. However, (and I have written about this at MyMac) I had to use something called an IR blaster (basically a remote connected to the Mac) to change the channels on the cable box through EyeTV. I could record any channel I wanted to from my cable box. It works great, and I was very happy with it. There are several different types of EyeTV pieces of hardware, and you can see what is available on the Elgato website.Īs I said earlier, I own the EyeTV Hybrid, which allowed me to record digital cable on my iMac, and what I thought was HD. The EyeTV hardware is what brings the TV signal to your computer.
#EYETV AND APPLETV SOFTWARE#
The software is fantastic and easy to use, but it is useless without hardware. The program is also integrated with Roxio Toast for burning your recordings to disc. Through the software you have a program guide, can schedule recordings, and even edit the recordings to trim out commercials or unwanted sections. Recordings can then be viewed through EyeTV, transferred to iTunes for your AppleTV or iOS device, and even watched anywhere in the world through the EyeTV app. EyeTV is software for your Mac that basically, with the proper hardware, turns your Mac into a TV and/or DVR. Let me take a step back for those who don’t know what EyeTV is. I currently use the EyeTV Hybrid with the EyeTV software, and when I was presented with the opportunity to try the EyeTV HD I jumped at it. In fact, we don’t have a true DVR in our house. iPad Air, iPad (iPad 2 or later), iPad mini, iPhone (iPhone 4 or later) or iPod touch (5th generation) with iOS 7.0.I have been a long time user and fan of EyeTV.EyeTV 3.6.5 or later with compatible TV tuner.If that doesn’t let you connect, try turning off the firewall and turning it back on again. If you’re using the OS X firewall, be sure to allow incoming connections for both EyeTV and EyeConnect. Sometimes, fully automatic configuration may not be possible outside of your local network. Simply activate the option "iPhone/iPad Sharing" in the EyeTV preferences. There is no need to reconfigure your local Wi-Fi network.
