Full FeedEyeTV updated to add support for TV Guide and Smart Series Guides
Elgato, creators of the EyeTV Hybrid TV Tuner Stick, has released EyeTV 3.1. This update, the first significant upgrade in over a year, introduces a new electronic programming guide for North America and the Smart Series Guide feature, which automatically records an entire season of a TV show. The update also adds parental controls and numerous other enhancements.
- Premium EPG data - EyeTV 3.1 introduces a new electronic programming guide for users in the United States and Canada: TV Guide, provided by Macrovision Solutions Corporation. The TV Guide EPG features 14 days of guide data and provides rich cast, ratings and genre information for many programs. One year of EPG service is included for new and all existing EyeTV 3 users. After that, an additional year of service is available for US$ 19.95.
- Smart Series Guides - EyeTV 3.1 enables users to automatically record an entire season of their favorite show using EyeTV’s new Smart Series Guide feature. A Smart Series Guide can be created with a single click. It monitors the EyeTV library for missed or already existing episodes of a show and will automatically record or skip repeats.
- Parental Controls - To help parents protect their children from objectionably content, EyeTV 3.1 adds support for Parental Controls. EyeTV supports US and Canadian ratings systems as well as the rating contained in DVB video streams. EyeTV supports US (TV and MPAA), Canadian, and European DVB rating systems. EyeTV’s Parental Controls also feature a whitelist to restrict access to certain channels.

Shame on elGato for phasing out TitanTV as a free option for people that have bought their product. Some people don’t need “premium EPG” data. Basic TV listing via TitanTV are fine. Other than that it’s a solid product. Been using mine for a couple of years now.
