EyeTV Remote

EyeTv is a great idea, and the extecution isn't bad. The real problem is stability, it crashes 5 times before starting up! But when it does work, it works just like it should. With some further bug fixes this could really be a great little app for anyone who wants to control eyetv from the comfort of your bed with a powerbook or ibook! =) I would love if someone made something like this for pocketpc or palm...either bluetooth or wi-fi. Now that would be cool.

As this software has been discontinued, I hope it's okay to mention an iOS app I've written to control EyeTV on OS-X, called "MyTV Remote". It's not free, but I'm unlikely to ever cover development costs. See https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mytv-remote/id1073853741?ls=1&mt=8

Still works - Eye TV 3.1 and Snow Leopard!

Other reviews said that this program was unstable. It might be the recent EyeTV 1.3 program release, or it could be the recent OS X 10.3 Panther OS that I'm using, but I've never had a crash. Great idea, check out their homepage and try using it with CyTV which streams the EyeTV content, it makes for some nice wireless TV if you have airport and a laptop.
