Elgato EyeTV 3 DTT stick

Yes! It arrived yesterday at lunchtime with EyeTV 3 software, and, after an update to 3.0.2, it didn't take long to get excellent NRK images from 4 or 5 channels. There were another 20-odd encrypted channels coming through loud & strong but those are not (yet?) accessible.

There is much to learn about EyeTV 3 software, and I must say this is one hell of a product for the price! The only problem I was left with at the end of the day was getting recording sharing to work in both directions, particularly in the most wanted direction, i.e. recorded on iMac and watched on Madge. I tried everything, including some hints on the Elgato Lounge (forum) without luck. Today I am going to see if actually having the stick installed at the Madge end affects the outcome..?
