Shagberg 2 Report post Posted October 25, 2021 Has anyone tested EyeTV 4 with macOS Monterey (which was released on October 25). According to the System Requirements, it is supported: "macOS 10.14(Mojave) or higher", but would like confirmation before upgrading. Thanks, Scott Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AngryUser53 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2021 It runs bad under Big Sur. And under Monterey it doesn`t start anymore. Elgato was fine. Geniatech sucks. Sorry !!! Support once consulted, never called back!!! Don`t they have a Ticket System in their Service Center? Have they any 2nd -Level Support? Never again....EyeTV Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mpbraendle 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) After upgrading to Monterey, EyeTV is stuttering. Definitely an update of the 4.0.0 (8526) software is needed. Edited October 26, 2021 by mpbraendle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shagberg 2 Report post Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) @AngryUser53 Thank you - for me, EyeTV 4 runs well on Big Sur. But after the @mpbraendle comment, I'm going to hold off on upgrading for the time. Did you consult support through the online form? https://www.geniatech.eu/support-contact/?Product=eyetv 4 macOS I've used it in the past and received prompt responses. Thank you, thank you @mpbraendle! Appreciate the response. Edited October 26, 2021 by Shagberg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jonas 1 Report post Posted October 30, 2021 Same problem with stuttering here. Since version 4 the overall performance of EyeTV is poor. Unfortunately v3 is not running on 64-bit. @ Geniatech - please update! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How they can justify selling it as working software is beyond me, especially as EyeTV 3 was such a stable, simple solution that actually worked properly.

Unfortunately it was EyeTV 3 that was the real abandonware. Elgato didn't update it from Carbon to Cocoa for many many years. Carbon was deprecated in 2012 and the writing on the wall was there long before. I blame Elgato for the misery, not the company that moved it to Cocoa in a drastically shrinking marked (and half failed or half succeeded depending on how you want to see it). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eweri 5 Report post Posted November 14, 2021 Hello! EyeTV 4 (8526) as good (or bad) as in Mojave, Catalina or Big Sur. Everything that was working before Monterey still works, everything that did not work before Monterey still doesn't work :-(. I can not understand why they do not fix the last few but very annoying errors and bugs. iPhone access still does not work. Bye Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed! And the fact that they still don't have the physical EyeTV remote working yet is unacceptable. Thanks for the feedback on Monterey. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oz Mac User 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2021 Lots of things either not working or not working well with Big Sur (stuttering video on HD content, come on!...) The bugs on Big Sur all still around with Monterey but worse still this crashes when I close an active window. I actually want to use this on a second Mac but, after paying for and installing a licence, I won't buy a second. Sorry, but this version is an insult at this price. Geniatech, please, please upgrade this? Such a shame Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PWW 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2021 Have just updated to Monterey.

Contact the developer for more information" Contacted support two days ago but have not received a response. Not impressed! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The program stalled on the first scan, but after I restarted the app it completed the scan and is working as well as it ever did. The diversity can't keep up with HD but is OK with SD.

13Viking 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2021 Hi, The last version of EyeTV4 that didn't have stuttering in some HD channels (for example BBC1 HD and BBC News HD) was 8520, and unfortunately I can't find that version anywhere anymore. Does anyone have it? If you do please share with me! Or - if anyone (including Geniatech) has a solution to the stuttering in some HD channels still found in 8526 please let me know!

Yomeno 3 Report post Posted January 17, 2022 It's really strange that EyeTV works on Monterey for some and not for others. Did the ones who have it working do a system update or a clean-install? Did those on M1 transfer the data from the old Mac (via TimeMachine or whatever) or did they start from scratch? I'm about to get my new MacBook Pro M1Max with Monterey and I'm really worried that EyeTV won't work anymore... I don't mind that recoding the app in cocoa/swift is complicated, but right now EyeTV 4 is only an Alpha version, and the updates make the software worse and worse...
