MacBozo Nut Dood Registered: 04/21/02 Posts: 17704 Loc: Pinellas Park, Florida	Should this also be in the Programming section? You know, just for the exposure? _________________________

For one thing, it would destroy Handbrake and FairMount... _________________________ http://davidbearphotography.com/

starmillway Oregon Registered: 02/04/08 Posts: 1858 Loc: McMinnville, Oregon	I use it, and it might sound convoluted, but here is how. I have EyeTV and watch DirecTV progs on my 24 inch iMac. If I open VLC I can "capture" the EyeTV picture and watch using VLC. Why would I do that? Well, VLC has losts more bells and whistles for controlling the view and sound of the EyeTV reception.
