"EyeTV 3.4 includes optimized support for playback on iPad, and has a simplified interface for exporting content. EyeTV 3.4 is required for streaming of live TV on the iPad using the EyeTV for iPhone/iPad app, which will be released in the near future.

EyeTV 3.4 adds support for EyeTV HD ($199.95 USD), a full-featured DVR that captures television from your cable or satellite receiver and delivers it live to your Mac in full HD. Available in North America, EyeTV HD records in H.264 format, which delivers stunning quality at impressively low bit rates. EyeTV HD features a unique dual-stream capture mode, so you can record in iPad and iPhone format at the same time. EyeTV HD enables super-fast exports to iTunes from EyeTV. It is also possible to stream live TV, including high definition TV, to iPad or iPhone, using the optional EyeTV for iPhone/iPad app....

EyeTV 3.4 is a universal application, which works on both Power PC and Intel Macs. An Intel Mac is required for streaming to the iPhone app.

Note that this is the last version which will support PowerPC. All future updates will require an Intel Mac. EyeTV 3.4 will work with OS 10.5.8 or better. However, we recommend Mac OS X 10.6.3 or later with all software and security updates installed.

EyeTV 3.4 Bug Fixes

EyeTV Sat: A problem where the EyeTV infrared remote would repeat the same key has been resolved.

EyeTV's CPU utilization and memory usage have been reduced when no windows are open.

The EyeTV Application size is smaller.

The FF/REW buttons on the Apple remote now work as intended with longer key presses.

A problem where EyeTV USB would hang has been resolved.

A cosmetic problem where long channel numbers would not display correctly in EyeTV's on screen menu has been resolved."

"Successful ibook repair
Had a iBook with Leopard, great runner, that suffered terribly one night in the trunk on the long gravel road to our place.
Did the vreg solder, pin 28 and scraped the board a bit, a touch of flux and used an old iron with the tip sharpened on the grinder.

Also found two of the screws used to hold down the motherboard just rattling around in there.
I'm writing you on the reborn patient. Thanks much
