EyeTV 2 - recording a program to DVD
Discussion
Hi,
I'm looking for some help! I have recorded a program using EyeTV 2 on my Mac but unfortunately I have no idea how to burn it to a DVD so I can watch it on my TV. The user guide/online support is a bit useless, so can the PH online support assist? For info I just have a standard MAc (no 3rd party apps on it) so I am limited. Oh, and I've never burnt a DVD before in my life!
Cheers

From the programmes window (the one that shows you your recordings etc):
Ctrl+click>Export
Chose "For iDVD"
You should then be able to drop it into iDVD and burn it from there.
If you buy Toast (useful product in its own right) you can burn directly I believe (don't Toast myself...yet).

Digging up this old thread as I'm wondering if you know how long it takes to export a 1.5hr TV program?

Depends on what it's doing and what the source file is.
If it's transcoding (i.e. moving the file format from say XviD to MPEG2) and it's a huuge file then could take a while. The speed and memory on your computer will also play a part (more grunt and RAM = faster).
Of course, it could have crashed
Check the system properties for running applications, if it's working it should be hogging most of the CPU time and thus near the top of the list; if nothing is using 90%+ of the system then it's probably crashed or waiting for something...ThePassenger said:

Erm... look in Utilities for something called "System Monitor" or "Resource Monitor".... maybe "Performance Monitor". Push comes to shove open a terminal and type top. Does the same thing
Would be more specific but the imac is powered off and don't want to wake people up with it's 'Bong'.
