Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 1-6 months

Recommend Product: YES

A couple of years ago, after finally switching to digital cable, I wanted a way to have my eyeTV box change channels on my cable box. Of course this wasn't happening, so I switched to ReplayTV.

I was tired of paying for Replay service, so I went looking for something that would integrate with eyeTV and operate an IR transmitter to change the channels on my cable box.

There are many other things that iEye Captain can do, but this is all I use it for and it does an incredible job.

The one problem I've had, the developer has been very responsive about and has told me exactly where it fits into the development schedule (although he has since said that it will be in the next build instead of waiting until when he was originally going to fix it).

Granted, it's not perfect because it is beta software. It is amazing that a single developer with a day job has been able to put this kind of work into the project. Kudos!

Excellent - GrahamAJones

Hi (from developer),

Thanks for your comments. As always, please keep me up to date by email on anything you need, and any bugs you are experiencing.

The kudos, however, go to my wife and two kids... they've been incredibly patient with the late evenings and weekends developing the app over the last year.

Thanks,
Graham Jones.
