| FYI for EyeTV 3 users w/problems after GTX 285/driver install (getting later builds) |
I don't have EyeTV 3.x on the Mac Pro used for testing the eVGA GTX-285, but a reader that does said his problems with EyeTV 3 after installing the 285's drivers were fixed by a beta/unreleased build (5238) of EyeTV 3.1.2. (The public release of EyeTV 3.1.2 is 5235.)
FYI - a reader replied to this post with notes on how can get the latest builds:
"Your readers might be interested to know that EyeTV installs a URL handler to allow direct updates. This means you can automatically have EyeTV download and install new builds that have not yet been pushed out as final supported releases. ElGato seems to post these interim test releases when trying to fix individual bugs and sometimes ask people to test them on their "EyeTV Lounge" forums. (http://forums.elgato.com)
So if you have EyeTV 3 installed, this URL will automatically download and install the build mentioned in your post:
eyetv://checkforupdates?build=5238
Or, the latest EyeTV 3 build at this moment: eyetv://checkforupdates?build=5242
-Darius V."
After entering that string in the browser, EyeTV 3 will launch and get the updated build. |
