Hello! I was running a Mac mini with EyeTV 3 for years as "video server" in my home network. Most of the time i was watching with my iPad. With EyeTV 3 on my Mac mini there was no problem at all. Because I wanted to update my Mac mini from High Sierra to Catalina, I bought my second licence for EyeTV 4. I am running EyeTV 4 since "day one" on my MacBook Pro and after a few updates live TV and recordings had no problem. Accessing the shared film library from my Mac mini running EyeTV 3 was no problem. Last week I upgraded my Mac mini to Catalina and EyeTV 4 (8524) and experienced that iPad access does not run at all. Even live TV was not possible. I setup EyeConnect in Security preferences to "fulldiskaccess" and than live TV was possible - but video of HD (1280x720 Video) is scattering on my iPad. Audio ist okay. SD video (720x576 Video) works as expected. I wanted to view some recordings from the shared library but this was not possible at all. Always got the message "preparing for access ..." but nothing happened. Even when I select "Prepare for iPhone access" from the content menu in EyeTV 4 nothing happens. So - iPhone/iPad access to HD live TV is buggy and access to the library is completely broken. I think this is a problem with the new security feature of Catalina. Looks like EyeTV can not start den Elgato H.265 Encoder by its own. If someone found a solution or work around, please let me know. I contacted the support of Geniatech Bye, eweri
