Rating: - I wish I could return it!
I spent countless hours trying to get this to work! Never actually did much of anything. The software it comes with runs very slowly and crashes all the time. Not worth the money.
Rating: - My Elgato eyety plus doesn't work!!!

Rating: - Lots of problems. Don't buy this product!
This product has a lot of problems. It's usable, but I definitely have buyer's remorse.
The basic television function is okay. Video quality is fine when you keep the window at 640x480; if you attempt to expand it to full screen, the quality degrades quite a bit. It is nowhere as good as a regular TV -- even a really cheap one. Channels do not change quickly; it takes about a full second to switch between them.
Its big feature is the time-shifting function. Unfortunately, it too ... Read More
