HELP? Re: myTV.PVR
Did this company fold? I was looking for software to install & can’t seem to locate the original company?
Anyone have any info on where I can find the software for a Mac G4?
Thanks,
Lynn

The hardware works fine but the interface is not so great. Also the quick guide that comes with the unit is the pits! Finding out how to set it up almost requires that you call the tech suport. The tech suport is good but some better printed material or better information on there web site would save people a lot of time.

Why not go with Elgato? They have HiDef and CableCard support already. I’ve also heard that you can connect multiple Elgato eyeTV’s for standard def, hi-def, and cable-card.
Their interface is really slick too, Plextor is using it for their Mac version of the ConvertX PVR.
Hauppauge might make great Windows Tuners, but I’d rather have Firewire. Also, Apple didn’t start using USB 2.0 until the last 2 years, so anyone with an older Mac will need a USB 2.0 controller.

I need a demo or something. I am SO close to ditching TiVo entirely over the lack of TiVo2Go support for Mac. I called in the other day to cancel my series 1 box just because I wasn’t using it, and told the guy I’d be calling back if I didn’t hear something soon, and he flat out told me, “I don’t think they’re really working on it.” Granted, he’s “just” a CSR phone-drone, but still…

Any one try one of these yet? I saw a user review somewhere, that was pretty damning of it, so I kind of wrote it off, but now that Mavro is talking about it, the credibility starts to climb back up again.
