This software is no longer recommended by Miglia - Version: 2.7, 6/2/2007 10:47AM PST

Miglia now provide a completely different app, MigliaTV, for the EvolutionTV device — see http://www.miglia.com/Support/evolutiontv.html for a download. I've just grabbed it, but so far it seems to be a big improvement. It's a proper universal binary too, which helps. The old software included two or three PowerPC only frameworks, which no doubt were to blame for many of the problems faced by ailgimboo.
Buggy Software, sort of UB, bad documentation, poor testing by manufacturer: stay away! - Version: 2.7, 3/22/2007 04:28PM PST

MacIntel owners be notified: Evolution TV application v2.7 is not fully functional on Intel machines. I have a 17" MBP and had lots of difficulties.
Despite claims and descriptions that say it is a universal binary, some features do not work. Installation was not clear thanks to old documentation. Had to install and uninstall 3 time until all plugins were installed. The bundled MovieGate plug-in v1.0.2 (also claimed to be a UB) definitely does not work. It kept telling me my MPEG-2 recordings were Divx or MPEG-4 recordings and rejecting them, and refusing to burn a DVD. Migilia customer support told me I must be doing something wrong because they had no problems. 10 days later they admitted they did their tests on a PPC. That was 2 weeks ago and they still haven't updated the software or reduced the claims of what this product can do. Perhaps Apple is buying them up and that's why they don't want to take the trouble to fix their claims.
Clicking inside of software while recording can lead to app crashing.
Sometimes app had errors while recording.
Out-of-date documentation.
Only a combination of 2 new beta elements, resulted in being able to burn a DVD from the app. Unless you like having to beta test the products you pay for STAY AWAY.

Don't install Evolution TV! Evolution TV caused Safari to constantly crash on my PowerBook. It took three days for me to figure this out - and let me tell you - being unable to use Safari (my favorite web browser) was a real drag!
Still problems - Version: 2.4.1, 9/4/2005 08:38AM PST
