Quality of reception using EyeTV

    I bought EyeTV for my intel iMac recently for use as a recording device - thought it was cheaper than buying a DVD recorder. It's good to watch TV on a Mac but the reception is so poor. I want to be able to watch my own tv and record from the NTL signal coming into my house but a splitter on the coax cable makes for terrible reception on the EyeTV.

    Any suggestions? A 'golden' coloured splitter?

    It's ****e.
    I can get about 6 channels, and all of them are ****e, with the exception E4.
    Even on those 6 channels, the reception is piss poor.
    I'd like to hear from anybody who can advise me otherwise.

    Huh? In 'norn iron'? I have three of the little bleeders all giving me immaculate reception on both my iMac and MacBook. I use two of them for Freeview and the other -a hybrid- feeds Sky Ireland to my iMac, here in Dunmurry. Fabtastic.
