    EyeTV stuttering

    i'm also running MacOS High Sierra v 10.13.6, EyeTV Hybrid dongle, HDHomerun and EyeTV3 3.6.9 (7528) b/c eyetv4 doesn't support the hdhr:-\ recently several channels have started jerky playback, but only @ fullscreen...windows play smoothly...wtf???
  3. and numerous schedules got duplicated...apparently etv's d/b got corrupted:-\
  4. and this morning it stopped throwing errors...
  5. recently my eyetv v3.6.9/os10.13.6 has started throwing the error The recording could not be deleted. Error code -43 (A file could not be found). before delete: > ls -l News4\ Midday.eyetv/ total 745392 -rw-r--r-- 1 eyetv staff 3288 Jul 29 10:46 0000000026b2f423.eyetvp -rw-r--r-- 1 eyetv staff 13600 Jul 29 10:46 0000000026b2f522.eyetvi -rw-r--r-- 1 eyetv staff 2189 Jul 29 10:46 0000000026b2f522.eyetvr -rw-r--r-- 1 eyetv staff 375226568 Jul 29 10:46 0000000026b2f522.mpg -rw-r--r-- 1 eyetv staff 159826 Jul 29 10:46 0000000026b2f522.thumbnail.tiff -rw-r--r-- 1 eyetv staff 6221394 Jul 29 10:46 0000000026b2f522.tiff after delete, the recording is removed from the eyetv listing, but the directory still exists > ls -l News4\ Midday.eyetv/ total 12480 -rw-r--r-- 1 eyetv staff 3288 Jul 29 10:46 0000000026b2f423.eyetvp -rw-r--r-- 1 eyetv staff 159826 Jul 29 10:51 0000000026b2f522.thumbnail.tiff -rw-r--r-- 1 eyetv staff 6221394 Jul 29 10:51 0000000026b2f522.tiff so what file is missing? why does etv care if it's missing? why doesn't it simply delete the whole directory? this had been working for years, nothing has changed, so wtf???
  6. no, titantv remote scheduling has always been baked into eyetv, and i don't see anywhere to change it, nor do i see any remote scheduling available thru xmltvlistings. in any case, i have verified that reverting eyetv's guide service to eyetvepgpremium from none (2nd image) restores titantv remote scheduling, with no loss of xmltvlistings:-) and updating manually gives this msg: so it's all good:-) i highly recommend titantv...i've used their .tvpi files since before eyetv, when i used crontab to run applescripts to record from a samsung firewire tuner using VirtualDVHS.app;-) and eyetv automatically opens any .tvpi file downloaded from titantv.com schedules...
  7. i just implemented xmltvlistings.com per WisconsinEric's instructions, thanx:-) but setting the guide service preference to 'none' seems to remove the titantv.com remote scheduling...any1 have any insight into this issue? also note that "atsc program guide will be used when available" doesn't:-\
  8. Well, it's the only thing they could do half right And it's turning out all wrong, Ma;-) Ils ont changé ma chanson *That's the only thing I say in French you know* nice 2 c there there are still melanie fans;-)
  9. glad u figured it out...do u have any info on the content of the schedule info? i'm trying to get the full info as displayed in the schedule detail (such as cast, etc) to try to make up for the empty descriptions in tv guide (see https://eyetvforum.com/index.php?/topic/301357-no-description/)
  10. tv guide used to provide a description of each program, but those seem to be gone:-\ @least some shows have a descriptive episode title. i can see that the schedule info contains a lot more info (see screenshot) so how do i access this info programmatically (applescript)?
  11. i finally decided to replace my 2006 minimac, running 10.6.8/etv3.6.9(7528)/hrhomerun/hybrid with a mojave system, but while the hybrid stick appears in the system profiler, it is not recognized by eyetv:-( and of course the 64 bit version has dropped hdhomerun seems i'm stuck with a 14 y.o. mac:-\
  12. the new Geniatech service login doesn't work with older versions; it requires 3.6.9
  13. s/d's hdhomerun_config_gui.app can display a tuner's stream on vlc by piping it thru udp...see attached screencap...so i imagine u can capture it too...i use both an ota hdhr & a cablecard hdhr ip tuner hdhr2vlc.tiff

    update 3.6.9

    3.5.4 worked fine for me using an hdhr dual & eyetv hybrid, but tvguide subscription requires 3.6.9=, so i tried it...and my hybrid died after i tried 3.6.9, coincidence?-\ and 3.6.9 refuses to recognize my hdhr:-\ so i can use 3.6.9 to get tvguide, but not watch tv, or use 3.5.4 to watch tv w/o tvguide?
