Elgato EyeTV Netstream 4Sat, DVB-S2 network tuner with hardware transcoding, silver (Accessories)

Customer Review

The idea of ​​Netstream 4Sat is really convincing. Only when the implementation is lagging behind probably. Despite several attempts and contacts with the Hotline (diagnostic tool, logs ...) I'm not getting the part for easy function with EyeTV on your Mac.
The compound is extremely unstable and sometimes it takes forever (5 minutes), until the device is found. On iOS, everything works in the same network without any problems.
On the software side, I find the whole also improved:
1. I wish an embedded web server to manage (not just a simple form for firmware update)
2. The iOS app is really economical and not really good to use. A look at times Magine ... so you can build a user interface for TV. Wenigsgtens stability is ok.
3. It would be very useful if we could see which client is currently connected.

Too bad, because otherwise Elgato makes actually very good products.

Have a replacement device get (without any problems and quickly), which now works better. Now it is only a client on my network, which does not work under OSX.
Unfortunately, there is still no new firmware.

Now worth three stars.

Addendum of 02/28/2015
After more than six months Elgato has finally heard us and an update released with EyeTV 3.6.7, the Netstream4Sat finally puts usable. In a first test, I can say: All stations operate and and you can switch 0.5-1 seconds in approx. I will follow now, whether this also remains so and as it is with photographs.

So Meanwhile back three star. (Not four, because it has eternal dedauert with Fix)

Is not at all! Rank: 1/5
