Elgato Eyetv 410 Manual Instructions
It's like a for your. The Elgato EyeTV HD is a small gadget that, when hooked up to your cable box, can record programs to your PC and let you watch them remotely, as well as live television, on any device connected to the Internet. This $199 device will let you watch all of your favorite television shows and movies whether you're across the country or in the next room, and the video quality is quite good. At a time when broadcasters are being stingier with streaming their shows and Hulu is reportedly gearing up to charge for viewing past episodes, the Elgato EyeTV HD is a good value.
However, there's one important caveat to consider before you invest in this cool gadget.DesignThe EyeTV box itself is reminiscent of an Apple TV; at 4.9 x 4.9 x 1.6 inches, it's small, square and can be crammed next to your cable box. A thin black stripe running around the middle of the device is the only thing that breaks up the all-silver exterior; a small LED turns green when the box is in use, and amber when idle.On the back are connections for component video, right and left audio, S-Video, USB, and an IR blaster.
The company supplies cables for all, but we found the USB cable to be laughably short, even though the company's website claims it's 6 feet long. Unless you use your own USB cable, your computer will literally have to be next to the device for it to work.
While not having an HDMI connection may seem like an inconvenience, it frees the device from DRM restrictions (more on that later).The box also comes with an infrared remote (and batteries) to control your cable box, but it's small, and offers no real improvement over a regular remote.SetupInstalling the EyeTV HD was straightforward; just copy the folder on the included CD to your Mac. Setup walks you through configuring the device to work with your cable box. We hooked the EyeTV HD to a 15-inch MacBook Pro, and were up and running in about 5 minutes. The app automatically filled the screen with a TV show; you can adjust the aspect ratio to your liking.A small floating control panel showed the station name and number, and had buttons for recording, volume, play/pause, and forward/back. A small icon in its upper right-hand corner brought up a menu where we could view details of the program, recordings, channels, a guide, and more.The EyeTV app automatically pulls in station listings (in our case from Comcast), which it shows in another window; here you can schedule recordings and search for programs using Apple's search utility. Scheduling a recording was simply a matter of finding the show, and clicking a little button next to the title.In order for the EyeTV HD to work, it has to be connected to a Mac that's on at all times. This has its advantages and disadvantages.
If the Mac is your only computer and you have to take it on the road, you won't be able to watch programs, such as baseball games, remotely. If your primary reason for getting the device is so you can watch shows while you're across the country, you'd be better served with a Slingbox and a cable box with built-in DVR.
