It's still in beta, but you can go sign up and try it out if you have a desire to match up your EyeTV HTPC with the Hauppauge HD-PVR. For those Mac users SageTV was the only way to use the HD-PVR, but now you can use it with the Elagato Eye TV for the Mac.Īctually a beta for EyeTV was released on November 13th and many beta testers have been hard at work since then. SageTV won the mult-platform support award first with Windows, then Linux and finally Mac support. During that time, the likes of SageTV, BeyondTV, GBPVR, MythTV and MediaPortal all were able to support the HD-PVR. When I get a chance this week, I'll consider contacting Elgato.We've followed the analog hole superhero, Hauppauge HD-PVR for the past year since it was first announced at CES. I'm debating whether to switch back to the HD-PVR. The device is set to "Best" quality in EyeTV, outputting full 720p/1080i.1080i is slightly better, but ghosting is still clearly visible. I've tried both 1080i and 720p from the Motorola set-top box.I tried replacing the thin cables it shipped with, with much higher-quality cable, and it makes zero difference.The EyeTV HD has the same echo/ghosting effect as described by others in this thread. For those who are most interested in ease and speed of setup, the fastest option is probably El Gatos EyeTV 500 product, which is an external FireWire-based.The image was very sharp and smooth, HD-caliber. I had crystal-clear streaming quality from the HD-PVR.I switched because the HD-PVR takes too much CPU when streaming to the iPhone/iPad (since the Mac itself has to reencode the video). Before I got the EyeTV HD, I was using the Hauppauge HD-PVR, which the EyeTV software supports.I am also using Verizon FiOS with a Motorola set-top box.For the second use, only an EyeTV HD will provide the quality, but only if they fix it.Īnother concurring voice here: I have the exact same ghosting problem, and this thread convinced me to register for MacRumors I have a little more data to add: The EyeTV HD is good for the first use because compressing to iPhone/iPad size irons out the problems - but a Hybrid would probably be just as good. I've got two goals for the setup: one is to watch cable TV from anywhere on the iPhone/iPad, and the other is to record movies and stuff to watch later on the Mac or the Apple TV. I'm hoping Elgato will fix this as I really like the setup, just not the quality. The results are as you see in this thread. But something's going wrong either with the initial analogue-to-digital conversion or with the H.264 compression (or both). In theory, a good component connection should be as good as HDMI and the EyeTV HD should be getting a near-perfect analogue signal from the STB. On the plus side, if you have unencrypted digital channels either OTA or through the cable box, the Hybrid would should work great on those. As a result I don't think you're going to be able to get encrypted channels in HD quality out of the Hybrid. In the case of the Hybrid, the coaxial connection can be HD for unencrypted digital channels but can only be SD for analogue output (and if channels are encrypted then the set-top box can only output them as analogue). You mean component inputs on the EyeTV HD - these are the best possible connections for analogue TV and you need them if you want to maintain HD quality over an analogue connection.
