    "Good software but less stable than it should be."

    August 15, 2010  |   By PaulKB

    Pros

    EyeTV makes it very easy to use my iMac as a DVR

    Cons

    EyeTV is not as stable as it should be. The software, very occasionally, will lock up requiring a force-quit. Fortunately the instability of EyeTV has not caused any lost recordings.

    (iMac 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 2 GB ram Snow Leopard 10.6.4)

    Summary

    I love EyeTV (hence I gave it 4 stars). If Elgato improved the software's stability I would give it a rating of 5 stars. Elgato might stop adding new features and simply work on improving stability for the next point release!
    EyeTV does what it was designed to do: it makes it easy to record TV programs and use my iMac as a PVR.

    BTW I do not use an iPad, iPod or AppleTV so have not reviewed any of EyeTV's feature related to those products.
