  1. I use "Video Cutter" from the App store. Positioning is a bit troublesome but depends on experience.
  2. I own (among other brands/types) both the Netstream 4C and HDHR3-4DC. The HDHR is recognized and functions with EyeTV & DVBlink & TVHeadend. The Netstream 4C functions only with EyeTV and not DVBlink. According to the people of DVBlogic the Netstreams uses a different protocol and does not use the regular DVB-C drivers.
  3. No problem here. In your case I would do a full uninstall (using EyeTV Reporter) and then install anew from the .DM. A bit of work but then you're sure all is up-to-date. If you have many schedules then make first a complete copy of 'EyeTV Archive' folder (there are hidden files in there) and restore it after reinstall.
  4. The EPG information is seldom accurate on the point 'repeating series'. That's why I seldom use the option to record all of a serie but prefer setting my own criteria and using time & channel selection to minimize recording double.
  5. @fissionbomb I suggestie that you look up the meaning of the word proprietary before you call tthings 'bullshit'. Fact is that only 1 single app on the Mac is able to use the Netstream reason is that the Netstream uses protocol only know to Geniatech and does not work with default drivers. it is not that other apps (Mac or aTV) are crippled. Also there is more on this world than Satellite TV. There is 'over the air' and 'cable'. Also programs that I refer to are running on Mac not on aTV. You clearly have a dislike of the aTV. Fine for you but this is primarily a Thread about the aTV and what Mac users expect from Geniatech !
  6. There is an additional advantage to a ported IOS->aTV4 app and that is because EyeTV is capable of working with a broad range of tuners and not limited to Netstream only. So a ported app means that very many users can watch (and schedule) their recordings on the aTV4. Another fact to stress is that there are very many apps that enable to watch live TV on the aTV4. The fact that these do not work with Netstream (but all do work with standard IP tuners) is the fact that Netstream uses a proprietary protocol. A secondary minus of this proprietary protocol is that only Geniatech software will work and no other software (even not the widely available TVHeadend, DVBlink). Also I like to stipulate a small but important fact. Some here are the opinion that Geniatech does not need to support devices like HDHR. I like to point to the fact that Elgato has been selling for many years the HDHR rebadged with only their name on it. This fact alone obliges Geniatech to keep supporting HDHR to full extend. Same as with all other 3-rd party (IP & USB) hardware that EyeTV has been working with and whose owners paid a whopping € 76,= to buy EyeTV.
  7. @Mikyesun Here (Netherlands) the app is still not available. All that can be found is the old (not working) Netstream app.
  8. Very, very, easy. Simply the same way that you can use the EyeTV app on iPhone/iPad to record, schedule, watch recorded programs. It connects with the EyeTV app on the Mac. Exactly the same way as similar apps running on either a NAS, Mac, PC are doing it. And yes the Mac has to be turned on. So what? Many people leave it on 24/24 and 7/7. No big deal.
  9. @Mikyesun "very good and interesting discussion ........." You really mean that? Please do not tell me that up to now you (or others at Geniatech) know that your users expect a aTV4 app similar/identical/ported to the iPad app. Which in my opinion indeed should be free since it is an addon to EyeTV 3 (which is not rather cheap). "#Ton - if I remember ....." Correct, I do live in the Netherlands and about 2,5 hours driving from Herzogenrath. Setting a date is a bit more complex because of my handicap. I suggest using email for this. However, I do not think a visit in person is necessary. Better would me (my opinion) a virtual meeting using products like Webex where several people can participate at the same time. It is clear that many here have the same idea like @Mpainesyd, @ibrewster, @toyotakurtis and certainly many others here. Simply take your own webpage (http://bit.ly/2pY3lRJ) and add the word aTV4 to "EyeTV on your iPhone & iPad & aTV4". A simple port for starters is all that we ask. Later there can be (visual and other) improvements. That's all we ask of you and I believe a programmer can port it within 1 month. The iPad version is the base to use. Alternative fast solution is buying Livezap and using that as a base. But as stated, I do not mind to visit in person.
  10. Besides. How many Netstreams will have been sold? It is a device that solely runs on a Ma using Geniatech software and nowhere else and also only since a very short while can be used with all of its 4 tuners. Most (>90%, >99%) people have either HDHR's or Hybrids and other USB-type devices. That's where the bulk comes from and that are the people now waiting 1+ year for a simple port. And they want to play their recordings on a aTV4
  11. @Mikyesun I always post (no matter where) my personal opinion as a private person. I hope messages from you and your collegues reflect company standpoint and not your personal view. I would rather have ead some explanation why a company is working on a tvOS app for over a year and then builds something that is not even close to what people expect. Also because a Netstream app was already available on tvOS. Moreover, a company (Livezapp) had long been able to prduce something resembling the IOS app without any of the inside expertise that you have. I like to bring picture below to your attention. It reflects what is happening at Geniatech.
  12. And this worthless app has been worked on for over a year? You really must have losers as developers. Get yourself 1 (one) good programmer and he will port the IOS app within 1 (one) months to tvOS. We need to be able to watch recorded EyeTV (on Mac) programs, set recording schedules using EyeTV (on Mac) programs. And so on. And fire all the others. Or buy Livezapp and turn this in a fully working app. @admin @Abigale @David Andel @Dual_HD @Echo88 @justin @Mikyesun @N.Z @Nick @NinjaKai @thomaskud @Vanessa
  13. Well if it doesn't work/function (can't download, still not available in the appstore) similar tot the IOS version than EyeTV is fully lost for me. Sell my Netstream 4C and get me a regular HDHR3-4dc and use that with DVBlink. It has crappy scheduling but fully working tvOS app and developers that are professionals.
  14. "netstream"????? Does that mean it will only work with a Netstream 4C and not with any tuner (like HDHR, Hybrid, a.s.o.) working i.c.w. EyeTV running on a Mac.
  15. There is a simple solution: Assign 1 HDHR to EyeTV and 1 HDHR to DVBlink (or TVHeadend if you have a NAS). That way you can setup both programs so that each will only record the assigned channels. Similar when using HDHR Extend then 2 tuners assigned to each software.
  16. This is updated link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/41dnaoekcgzo8yv/Geniatech_eyetv_3.6.9_7514.dmg?dl=0 If this particular version does not work then I fear there is something wrong on your site/iMac. Runs here fine with OSX 10.12.4 i.c.w. Netstream 4C, HDHomerun & Hybrid. All at the same time.
  17. Sorry David, I apologize to you but not to anyone else who apparently is connected to Geniatech.
  18. Geniatech clearly has the same approach towards their clients as Elgato did: "Clients are a nuisance, better get rid of them". We are the one having a problem since they actually have an almost monopoly. DVBlink does not fully cover the options EyeTV had and for TVHeadend one needs a NAS.
  19. I'm afraid the result will be like picture below instead of a simple 1:1 port of an adequate product.
  20. Answering questions lead to new questions. So the solution apparently is to not answer questions. does that answer yorur questions? 🤡
  21. I'm afraid the Hauppage may be defect. Only way to test that is with another Mac or PC. You can install EyeTV on as many Macs as you want with the same ID for testing. No problem.
  22. This is the best place I could find. A few questions: 1. The app finds the Netstream 4C (info gives correct IP). However, no stations are found when I scan for channels even though it says that "channels have been found". 2. Where does this app stores "recorded programs"? Is there a coupling with EyeTV on the iMac?
  23. - How many USB devices are connected? - Is the Hauppage connected directly or thru (powered?) hub. - Recording same problem? - Test the Hauppage on another Mac to determine cause. - Check (with Activity Monitor) the load/swapping of your system.
