Then click OK — and repeat this procedure for all the Clear QAM channels that

you are able to receive.

EyeTV saves these custom channel names. They are retained even if you auto-

tune another time — so this channel name customization step should not be

necessary after the initial setup effort.

Device Settings

To access EyeTV 500’s device specific settings, select Device Settings from the

EyeTV Menu. Here you can adjust all aspects of the encoding process.

Encoding

EyeTV 500 has one Quality setting, Lossless. The DVB stream is recorded unal-

tered, and so you’re getting the full quality MPEG-2 file.

Signal Tab

This tab will display Signal Quality and Signal Strength, which can help when

orienting your antenna.

Announce Signal Quality will speak the value of the graphs numerically, which

can help you if your Macintosh screen is not viewable from where your antenna

or dish is located.
