Is there any chance of upgrade to HEVC/x265 support? I've been using that for a while & it works out excellently for all of my projects. This would also help avoid a second encode of the EyeTV material & if available, would bring quality up to 10 or 12 bit if the source material provides it.

Answer: yes - working on this 64 bit transition for all Eyetv Applications (more then 15) since 12 month - supporting iOS/Android/Windows/Windows 10/macOS, Apple TV, ipadds, we almost finished for all operation systems - beside macOS, we know you waiting for this a long time, but it is / was also the biggest tasks, and there was a time in March this year - we feared that we cannot not make it, but we overcome the mayor challenges and ups and downs. Please see some live screen shots to get a idea about our new Eyetv 4.x for Mac 64 - bit (beta + preview) - UI / UX. We look for some serious & experienced beta testers and heavy eyetv usersfor Mac. This will be limited closed beta - preview group. If you are interesting, please post a pm to me. Please be aware yetv 4.x for Mac 64 - bit (beta + preview) will be only for + require latest macOS Mojave and for macOS Catalina, no other other macOS! Open speaking, it was + is a heavy load to upside everything to 64bit, to have this clear - we still have a way to go, but so far it looks promising + working, we now working with open sprints, on the device integration, final compatibility (hope Apple do not change so much anymore in Catalina) - stabilize the code and work on the performance. More or less quality quality ......... From time to time, I will update here, the Eyetv dev + support team have a clear target, as from beginning - move eyetv Mac app to the next level - and be ready in time (launch of Catalina), but as much quality first, hope understand this. thanks + have a great day. kind regards Mike

well done! very very nice redesigned interface that is better to use than the old one. of course there are still bugs and crashes (as already listed here in the forum) - but I think it's great what's already achieved! currently running on my mac-mini server (late 2012 /2,3 ghz quad i7 16gb ram) is mojave (14.6) with eyetv3 and i'm testing eyetv4 on the macbookpro (15" 2017 2,9 ghz quad i7 16gb ram) with catalina (15.0). both via netstream 4sat (1.1.0-402r1). it's also great that eyetv4 like eyetv3 can control all 4 tuners at the same time after setting the corresponding key via terminal (defaults write com.elgato.eyetv "max SAT2IP tuners" -int 4). cheers tom

Not able to get off full screen with the ESC on the keyboard any longer, needs a double click. Cheers Phil

Let me understand this. If you were to buy a petrol powered car, and 5 years later petrol runs out because everyone moves to electric power, you would expect the car manufacturer to convert your car to battery as part of their customer service? 🤔

Can you imagine that there are people who do not speak English well enough to describe these problems in beta? (translated with Google translator)

I'm using beta 6, and have been using betas since b3. However, I haven't been able to actually watch anything since then. I'm on a MacBook Pro early 2015, previously running 10.14.6 but now running 10.15. When I open eyeTV, the TV window appears but it becomes blurred so that my desktop background appears. Here is an example of what I'm talking about: Additionally, I can't switch between ATSC and ClearQAM Cable channel lists like I could in eyeTV 3. Any idea what's going on?

Why do you post in German? This is an English forum. The developer is Chinese and does not understand German. So stop being so ignorant and keep it in English. Or don't post at all.

Ich poste hier mal auf Deutsch, bislang festgestellte Fehler in der Beta 6 Programmguide: Anzeige zwischen Kanal und Sendungen um 5 Reihen versetzt Suchfunktion funktioniert noch nicht (immer nur ein Buchstabe in der Eingabe möglich (außer man setzt den Cursor jedesmal neu) Updatefunktion funktioniert nicht 'bei umschalten ins Vollbild oder Zoomen flackert das Bild bei direkter Aufnahme werden mehrere Sendungen markiert, Markierung bleibt auch wenn ich die Aufnahme stoppe beim Löschen der Aufnahme ruckelt bzw. flackert das Bild ansonsten läuft das Programm schon super Gruss Schwelle iMac 27 OS 10.15, EyeTV Sat Free

Hi Jürgen! Go to Systemeinstellungen - Sicherheit - Allgemein and allow EyeTV to open. Regards, Peter

UPDATE: after some investigations I found, that the option "Look for shared EyeTV Archives" forced the Crash

Thanks very much for bringing EyeTV on 64Bit … my first feedback on Beta 6: ———————————————————————————————————————————— crashes a few seconds after startup. (ALWAYS) [Netstream 4SAT Firmware 1.1.0-403r1_V1] I can avoid the crash if I disconnect the network, start EyeTV, connect network again. → crash report sent ————————————————————————————————————————————— After “clear EPG database” some content is still visible. ————————————————————————————————————————————— After Quit & Restart of EyeTV4 the Program Guide (full of data before restart) is empty again. ————————————————————————————————————————————— Using “clear EPG database” on an empty Program guide, bringt back some old EPG data. ————————————————————————————————————————————— ————————————————————————————————————————————— Slider button missing ————————————————————————————————————————————— I’m using 2 satellites ... but I found no way to switch between the satellites in the "All channel" list. Sometimes Sat 1 ist shown, sometimes Sat 2 ————————————————————————————————————————————— I defined only 2 channels for “EyeTV Premium”, the rest “None” but after the Program Guide is filled with more than 100 channels. … maybe from Satellite 2 ? But I can't switch to Sat 2 to define the EPG Type. ————————————————————————————————————————————— ————————————————————————————————————————————— No input possible in the 3 rules fields ————————————————————————————————————————————— Search field after typing “BBC” to enter BBC you have to type B→ B→C→ ( → = Cursor right) ————————————————————————————————————————————— Preview Icon (taken after recording) is sometimes mirrored ————————————————————————————————————————————— Recording sometimes containes parts of the previous recording/time buffer ————————————————————————————————————————————— Deleting a Recording with “Backspace” no longer possible ————————————————————————————————————————————— Export a Recoring → crash —————————————————————————————————————————————

I'm happy that there will be a new version of EyeTV after all. The following functions are not yet available: - Change order of channels in channel list - Rename Favorites Channels - When searching for channels, only one letter is written at a time, as this is always marked. After each letter you have to click on Pfein to the right. - I use iMac 5k and LED Cinema Display. When moving the TV window from the iMac 5k to the Cinemadisplay, the picture composition is faulty (running picture only half as big), because the change of the resolution was not recognized.

Because it adds no new functionality and is just to maintain its usability in the market place so that I can continue to use what I have already paid for? Or is that not a reasonable expectation?

EyeTV 8509, MacOS 19A582a -It's not possible to enter more than one Character (sometimes two) in the search field (This only works on smart EPGs) -It´s not possible to change text fields in the smart EPGs (focus is always on the search field) Because of the length of this thread: Would it be possible to get a list of known errors, so that not everyone has to report the same errors?

Hi, I don't know anyone here so -- hi. I went to the Geniatech website and found no info about Catalina and 64-bit. I went to the blog https://www.geniatech.eu/blog-9-info-eyetv-4-64-bit-macos-10-15-catalina-eyetv-3-32-bit-macos-mojave-10-14/ and found a link at the bottom of the page to a poll on devices and a link to download EyeTV4 https://eyetvforum.com/index.php?/topic/3064-eyetv-4x-for-mac-64-bit-public-beta-preview/. It strikes me that most of the devices are for Europe, I'm in the USA. I voted for the devices I have. You should do the same. I downloaded the beta and it does run. I'm still running Mojave and thinking of going to Catalina. I do have an EyeTV Hybrid and the software finds it. I have a Hauppauge Pinnacle tuner which works fine on EyeTV 3, but Eyetv 4 doesn't see it. The beta seems to work and does look a bit different the EyeTV 3. I haven't played with the beta too much yet. Has anyone downloaded the beta and found a way to get other tuners recognized? Does anyone see anything drastically different from EyeTV 3? Thanks, Paul

How do I get 64bit beta. I want to upgrade my Mac OS but holding off till eyetv4 is out. Can the file be shared? Dropbox anything

Hi Angela..... Thanks for your answer, but I didn't find the link for download. Can you please give me a hint where I can find? Joerg

Always quit your apps. A computer with lots of open apps is getting slow. I never had that problem with EyeTV because - when I am not watching TV - I quit the app. But, you know? I like to help people. So here is a little applescript which does exactly what you want. Place it on your desktop. You need to give it specific rights within the system settings. Go to (I keep this in German for you) Systemsteuerung -> Sicherheit -> Datenschutz. Then left "Bedienungshilfen" and press on the little "+". Add the launcher you just put on the desktop. Now you can start your TV window with a double click. EyeTV-Fenster öffnen.app.zip

Thanks for access to beta 5. Using on Eye TV DTT in Australia. All working well except : Program Guide. The Channel List does not line up with schedules. Screenshot attached. Program Guide is not held after Shutdown of EyeTV to next start. Necessary to download IceTV guide again. A message after channel setup on "Congratulations screen. Screenshot attached. All seems ok if you continue. Selecting Dock icon when EyeTV active does not bring window back up. Need to Quit and re-start. For reference this is on 2015 27"iMac with Mohave 10.14.16. (About to move to Catalina)

Please go to the 21th post on the first page. There you can download anNDA, which you have to fill out and sign and then send back to Geniatech. So in short. 1. download NDA 2. fill out and sign it 3. send it back to Geniatech

Now that Catalina is released, it will get very crowded in this forum. I see one post of issue reporting vs. 20 Newbies applying for beta-access (they have my sympathy). It will be barely readable. From what I see how many issues there were in beta 3 and still are within beta 5, we are weeks/months away from a release. So maybe a locked forum would be better to work things out.

Yes. Please update the Netstream app for tvOS 13. IF you do it, please also fix these issues: - use a black font in the EPG when tvOS is set to dark mode. Otherwise you can barely read it - don't let the Apple TV go to sleep if Netstream is active and set in "Pause". This prevents recording of Timeshift - larger Timeshift buffer (2 GB is not enough) - Aspect ratio fix. The image is cropped in most channels (probably some kind of overscan/underscan error)

EyeTV 4.0.0b5(8508) EyeTV Netstream 4c runs with MacOS 10.14.6, but not with 10.15, see attachments:

you are missing the latest firmware for Netstream 4C

In time for what?

OPTIMIZED ONLY FOR Netstream 4c Firmware (sat>ip) only BETA - only for testing purpose not for productive use - do not redistribute or share it - it is tagged / local we find it everywhere in the web. https://www.dropbox.com/s/6el73i27ybzcpd8/vixs_firmware_1.1.0-403r1_V1.update?dl=0 under - https://www.geniatech.eu/de/open-source-compliance-information/ AGAIN - OPTIMIZED ONLY FOR Netstream 4c Firmware (sat>ip) only BETA - only for testing purpose not for productive use comment(s): set the Netstream 4c to 100% sat>ip compliance / compatible also for Panasonic TV.

Guys, you know why this company is behaving in such a way? because it is a Chinese/Asisn company, they only understand in how to take or siphon off the money from anyone but never to give back, so their beta's are un-necessarily deliberately complicated, may be they work as a front for something ...the download agreement form shows their only and only commercial greed, even their English in the form is too broken, it is Chinglish .... guys, walk away on the face of all those Chin cons in the west .. they are only for their vested interests ..they understand all Europeans as foolish buffoons going after Ms chingy

all, to all who like tp participate in the eyetv 64-bit program, please print + sign + scan attached e-copy of the NDA + BETA Eyetv 3, Eyetv 4 64-BIT BETA PROGRAM and share a signed e-copy to EYETVBETA@EU-GENIATECH.COM.
