Note, these issues are pretty subtle, I doubt that most users would even notice the dropped frames that happen at 720p60, but the cadence breaks caused by the dropped frames make it almost impossible to convert film-based material back to their original 24fps rate.Ĭlick to expand.If you're just doing casual viewing of recordings on your TV you may not notice the dropped frames.
#EYETV LOUNGE 480P#
I'm going to try some recordings at 480p to see if that works with the EyeTV HD (update, that didn't seem to help so I have yet to find a way to do really clean analog captures). SD units can't really handle the SD data rates and the HD units appear to have problems handling HD). The standard definition units drop frames even at SD sizes and now I'm seeing a similar result with the HD units, it seems that they are all over spec'd (i.e. This problem is similar to the issues I've had with other analog video recorders, I've yet to find an analog recorder that can do flawless recording. I'm still experimenting with the EyeTV HD recording, so I may find a solution but as yet I'm not too impressed with the unit itself. I doing my captures on a Mac Pro, 4x2.66GHz so I don't think it is a problem with the performance of my hardware and the drives that I am recording to are internal, 1TB, Western Digital Blacks which should easily handle the data rates needed to write the files. The net result is that there appears to be no way to get high-quality HD recordings out of this unit (because of the dropped frames). I can't get a clean 1080i 30fps cadence during captures and while the recordings at 720p60 look pretty good I still see dropped frames that also break the cadence in the progressive 60 frame-per-second output. I also have one of the EyeTV HD units (offers direct HD component inputs and H.264 out at up to 12Mbps) and while I haven't done extensive comparisons of sharpness I can report that the unit appears to be unable to record HD video without dropping frames. Elgato claims I should not be experiencing this and their tech support has yet to reply to me after this issue has been elevated. Please let me know if you are also experiencing the "double-image" issue, this will explain a lot of things then. I second what you are saying, there is a huge drop off between the DVR quality on my TV screen and what is showing on my computer. It is more obvious on text than on a moving image but the issue of a "double-image" is what is causing the picture quality to be so poor.

Also, if you look closely at the attachment of a movie I screen captured, you can also see the double image if you look closely at the channel logo on the lower right hand corner. If you look closely at the text, you can see an outline of each word, it's almost like a shadow. Can you please take a look at my screen capture attachments? Please let me know if you are experiencing the same type of image quality by looking at the attachment with the menu text. iPad Air, iPad (iPad 2 or later), iPad mini, iPhone (iPhone 4 or later) or iPod touch (5th generation) with iOS 7.0.I have the same unit as you.EyeTV 3.6.5 or later with compatible TV tuner.If that doesn’t let you connect, try turning off the firewall and turning it back on again.
