EyetTV behaviour

View

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.

Hello,

I have preview 2 installed and running. The new preference pane adds convenient settings. Great.

One problem though, using EyeTV: When calling the menu from either a TV station or a recording the screen switches from full screen to windowed. The TV window then just stays there on the screen whatever the next remote action is.

Cheers. Philippe.

These entries from the FAQ may be relevant to this topic:

Behaviours

The installed application XY, for which a behaviour exists, does not turn up in Remote Buddy's menu. What should I do? (FAQ015E0160)
There are several possible error sources:
- The application has been installed after Remote Buddy has already been launched
  For efficiency reasons, Remote Buddy only searches for supported applications when its started. If you have installed an application after launching Remote Buddy, please quit Remote Buddy and launch it anew.
- Oudated program versions
  The installed version of the program in question could be outdated and identify itself with a different Bundle Identifier than the version supported by Remote Buddy. This problem often occurs with Mplayer OS X. The most recent version of that application is not to be found on Sourceforge but on directly on the pages of Mplayer HQ.
- Custom menus
  If you use a custom menu in Remote Buddy and you don't make use of Remote Buddy's smart folders, the menu structure is static. You have to manually add the behaviour into a place of your choice in the menu.
- The behaviour is deactivated.
  Make sure, the checkbox in front of the Behaviour's name in the Mappings pane of the preferences is active.
- The Launch Services database is outdated.
  Remote Buddy uses Launch Services to check for the availability of an application on your Mac. If the Launch Services database of OS X is incomplete or outdated, so is Remote Buddy's dynamically created menu. The solution, though is easy. Download LSRefresh, launch it, select the application(s) that don't turn up in Remote Buddy's menu, wait until the update is finished and then restart Remote Buddy.

Configuration

How do I add a new action to a Behaviour - f.ex. an emulated key press or AppleScript? (FAQ015E0153)
1) Open the Remote Buddy Preferences via the pulldown-menu and choose "Mapping".
2) Choose the mapping you want to modify.
3) Select "Custom actions" for the button you want to map to an action of your own.
4) Create the action you need using the appearing editor.

Hardware - EyeTV Receiver

Which receivers are supported? (FAQ015E0211)
The latest info on hard- and software-requirements including info on support hardware can be found on the dedicated page for EyeTV receivers.

Please consider making use of the free Remote Buddy trial version to test your device for compatibility directly on your computer.

Hello Philippe,

Remote Buddy currently tries to bring EyeTV back to its status prior
to its use by Remote Buddy once you switched to full screen. This was
intended to be a convenience function for HTPC like setups. I'll see
what can be done (i.e. make this an option or something even
smarter ;) !

Cheers,
Felix
