Thank you for your recent enquiry regarding a FW version of AlchemyTV?.
I am please to say that within the next coming month or so, Miglia Technology will be releasing a FW400 version of AlchemyTV? aimed at the PowerBook and imac audience. Pricing is yet to be confirmed but will be similar to the existing AlchemyTV? range. Details will soon be announce on the Miglia website.

I also asked about a PC card version, but he didn't comment on it...
Yes, but you can burn a VCD which will play in almost all DVD players.
It depends on how long to program is, doesn't it?
With EyeTV, I can burn about 1 hour 10 minutes on VCD, 30 min with SVCD, and a couple of hours with DVD at the standard quality setting. Increasing the quality setting (I use the phrase loosely) just decreases that available space.
Yeah. The new version looks to be pretty nice. I still wish they'd figure out some solution for the problem those with digital cable have (i.e. a way for Eye TV to change the channel on the cable box)

Late to this topic, but here goes (PAL EyeTV):
- re-encodes when recording to DVDs -> further decreases quality
Really? I thought that you could burn mpeg1 tracks straight to DVD and most DVD players wold be able to read the disks without any problems.
Can someone clarify this please.

Well, maybe it is possible to burn MPEG1, but I just double-checked the DVDs I burned with EyeTV+Toast, and the files are MPEG2.

Well, they announced the EyeTV200 yesterday with MPEG2 encoding. Also, versions for satellite systems, it seems.
