Record multiple video streams simultaneously

Eric says:

I did the last 1.8.4 update of the EyeTV software and it adds an impressive feature:
"Watch two or more channels at the same time
With digital television products (EyeTV 300/310, 400/410, 500, 610, EyeTV for DTT, Miglia TVMini) EyeTV 1.8.4 can play and record two or more TV channels that reside on the same transponder/multiplex simultaneously. To open an additional live TV window, hold down the Control key while selecting "Open Live TV Window" from the File menu. This is considered an advanced feature, for more information see the FAQ entry at http://faq.elgato.com/index.php/faq/more/320 ."
it is indeed impressive and it does work well.
On my G4 (boosted with an accelerator card), I can open 4 streams, with no slowdown whatsoever (and thus record 4 programs).
This new version can also directly export your programs for the video iPod.

Looks great, it's like having a multi-tuner decoder, only limited by the fact that you can only watch/record multiple programs multiplexed on the sane chanel.
