I have tried very hard, and still can't make this ***** to work!!!
"eye tv server unreachable" is all I get.
Tried both 127.0.0.1 and actual IP = nope
Tried the url in Safari = nope
Added xbmcswift 0.2.0 = nope
Tried with Eye TV on / Eye TV app off and tried again in XBMC with each of the above settings = nope
Is iPhone option turned on in EyeTV = Yes
I give up.
My setup is as follows:
Mac Mini OS X 10.7.3
Eye TV DTT 3.5.4
XBMC 11
Eye TV parser for xbmc, updated.

Thanks Benjee, figured out last night there had to be something wrong with the Live3G part, which
I hadn't heard about until I fiddled with it for the iPad. Will conduct some tests tonight and report back.
A question though: does Eye TV have to be running with or without the video feed ?
Otherwise this means you have a live video feed running on Eye TV and the same on XBMC?
Or two different feeds? Wondering about bandwidth.

First of all... thanks for the plugin! I hadn't expected to find anything that would allow connectivity with EyeTV, so this makes my atvs so much more useful!!
#1. Now I'm not sure if I'm trying to do something unsupported, or whether this is an issue with the skin I'm using (Quartz), however in order to 'pretty up' the EyeTV Parser, I was hoping to attach thumb images to the channels in the line-up, however once I apply a thumb then back out of the information screen, the thumb/fanart information is lost, and nothing shows on the line-up page. If I return to the 'Set Thumb' page it is reset to 'No Thumb'.
Is there any way of applying thumb-art to the channels that you know of? Or is this not possible?
#2. Feature request: Some way of specifying the the aspect ratio of the TV stream would be awesome (if at all possible). I use EyeTV to show over-the-air channels, and many of them are 4:3, however when viewing them using EyeTV Parser, they appear to be resized to 1:1 (so squashed horizontally with large black bars). Could there be any way of specifying the default aspect/stretching-mode to use for each channel? (or based on the source aspect?)
#3. Feature request: It would be great if I could assign specific channels as 'favorites', allowing me to jump quickly to commonly used channels. (The Quartz skin allows favourites to be accessed from the main page, which is where I would use this feature)

Hello, just installed XBMC on a Mac Mini with EyeTV. LiveTV works, Recordings does not --- I get addon.py script failed. Any idea what's causing this?
The source is both added and on the local machine in the standard ~/Documents/EyeTV Archive directory. "username" is not the real user directory, but only change to logs and settings.

Its a pity because you've done an excellent job with the add-on. I particularly want to use it through here because I prefer the 2.35:1 aspect which the native eyetv app doesn't have. I have also requested elgato to add this but...?
