## What is EyeTV Remote?

EyeTV Remote provides fully-featured fast and reliable control of your EyeTV device. No more searching for the remote, as everyone in the family can have one on their phone or iPad. EyeTV Remote uses your wireless network so it doesn't suffer the drawbacks of infra-red controllers. 

EyeTV Remote can be used from any room in your house, or the convenience of your arm chair. The large buttons are easy to find on the table, and you can adjust the button sensitivity to avoid accidental taps as you fumble for your phone in between the beer and peanuts. 

A single tap gets you commonly used actions. Swipe buttons up, down, left or right for less used operations. The help screen explains the functionality of each button in full. 

Features include:
• Play, pause, record
• Skip forward and backwards (by standard or custom durations, or a frame at a time)
• Fast forward and rewind
• Select channels (up, down or from a list)
• Select recordings
• Supports multiple TV tuners (not available with eyeTV version 4.0)
• Limited program guide (showing-now and up-next for current channel, more when available)
• Open, close and maximize player windows
• Rotate between multiple windows (not available with eyeTV version 4.0)
• Volume up, down, mute
• Sleep your computer
• Optional password protection, to stop the kids taking over. 

Free companion software needs to be installed onto the MacOS computer running the EyeTV software. The companion software is 'JazzRemoteServer', and can be downloaded from www.jazzmedia.com.au/eyetv/. 

Requires MacOS (OS-X) version 10.9 or later, EyeTV 3 version 3.6.8, or EyeTV 4.0. Also requires your iOS device to be on the same network as the computer running the EyeTV software. 

Please note that some advanced functionality is not available with EyeTV 4, due to limitations within that application.

### 5/5 — Parfait

*2022-01-27*

Tenir l’application ouverte

### 4/5 — Funktioniert

*2019-01-02*

Nutze es als Fernsteuerung für mein EyeTV seit meine Fernbedienung den Geist aufgegeben hat.
Schnell installiert und hat sich bei mir einwandfrei verbunden. 
Auch die Funktion ist wie beschrieben.
Das Design ist gelinde gesagt rudimentär. Für mich kein Problem, aber ein Punkt Abzug weil die Bedienung über Wischgesten sehr unpräzise und völlig unpassend ist. Hab erstmal ein paar Minuten gebraucht um rauszufinden das ich die Lautstärke hoch und runterwischen muss.

### 1/5 — Non funziona

*2018-11-03*

Non va e il sito per collegarsi è disattivato

**Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to review this app. If you would like to contact the developer I'd gladly help resolve the issue you seem to be having. (Sorry, I speak only English).

### 5/5 — EyeTV Remote on iPhone 6s+ and MAC

*2016-09-23*

Changed from an Elgato Diversity to HDHomeRun tuner on Eye TV software to get the local HD channels.
Found this application to be ideal and it does most of the things I could do with a remote control.
I can see two channels on my 34" screen and change back and forth to full screen as required.
Check it out!!
Just gets better as the developer adds improvements.
Better again with the change in the record button, thanks.
