However, one thing that is unclear is whether EyeTV will support the new device. I am eagerly awaiting the new HDHR with built-in transcoding (to H.264) as well.

Beats any other DVR setup I've seen, Tivo, cable companies, etc.) Very good setup, and I'd recommend it to anyone. (Only one copy of the show is stored on your mac or external hard drive, and that one file is available to stream to any Apple TV. The end result is the shows automagically pop up as available to watch on every Apple TV in my house. m4v format (takes about 2x the length of the show on my MBP 17' 2009, 2.8 GHZ Intel Core 2 DUO), and imports it into iTunes Library.

OTA Antenna -> HDHomerun (HDHR3) -> router -> Macbook Pro running EyeTV -> EyeTV records a show, then auto-transcodes it to. I have been using this as my family's TV/DVR system doing for about 1.5 years now. I think Silicon Dust is going with DNLA to break free of the microsoft handcuffs, which should also help those of us without windows based computers. The lack of bug fixes is not a good sign that Microsoft is going to continue to activly support the program. (For example, Displayport even with HDCP support cannot display protected content. If someone else makes a new mac PVR, I think I will switch to that software.ĭNLA (which Elgato is a member of) is hopefully the solution to a new generation of DVR hardware and apps, the sooner the hardware is out the better.ĮDIT: The only PDV solution that will capture protected content is Windows Media Center, and it looks like they have not fixed the bugs that were in Windows 7 in the Windows 8 version.

In addition, they haven't even made eyetv compatible with the 3 tuner model, let alone the next upcoming version.Įlgato in my opinion has not kept up with what we consumers want simply because there is no other mac dvr type software on the market. (I think because it is a USB 2 based capture device, ethernet devices have much more bandwidth available.) I had better efforts using a Silicon Dust tuner, but without cablecard support it really cripples the system. My current setup is an eyetv HD, hooked to a cable box, I have and still have intermittent issues bad recordings, weird dropouts for no reason, missed recordings and other issues. We really need cablecard support on the mac, and it doesn't exist currently.
