Re: Re: how to best launch eyetv from harmony remote?

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.
 
thanks for the replies,

I'm a bit lost on a few things. First off, I'm using 
10.4.x -do I need to step up to 10.5? My front row is a hobbled hack 
(to bring it back after apple took it away around 10.4.11) , so that 
is probably not so good either.

I've gotten front row to start up a few times and found it lacking - 
wasn't able to customize its menus at all- Im hoping remote buddy 
will allow me to remove 'shuffle' as the first menu item ...

 
Please keep in mind that Remote Buddy and Front Row are two different 
and completely independant things.

Remote Buddy 1.x runs on 10.4.6 and later. No update to 10.5 is needed 
to run Remote Buddy. Remote Buddy's menus can be customized. Front 
Row's menus can't. Apple doesn't offer you any such options.

Also, will I be able to hit 'record' while watching eytv live?

 
Remote Buddy has great EyeTV support. You can start and stop recording 
in EyeTV via Remote Buddy just like you can when using EyeTV with a 
mouse and keyboard.

I recommend you to download the free, 30 day, feature-unlimited trial 
version from the Remote Buddy website. It also comes with its own Help 
that includes a chapter of step-by-step How-Tos, which is a great 
starting point if you want to customize it.

Best regards, 
Felix Schwarz
