iEye Captain interface: Schedule Info Drawer |
To create a new schedule: ensure you are in the “All Records” playlist and that the Saved Search popup button is set to “All Records.” Then, you can click the “+” button on the bottom right of the main window, the “+” button in the toolbar, or choose “New Schedule” in the File menu. To view a schedule in more detail or make changes: in the Schedules Pane of the main window, click the schedule to select it, and click the “Info” button on the bottom left of the window, the “Info” button in the toolbar, or choose “Show Info” from the File Menu. This opens a drawer at the bottom, in which you may see the schedule information in greater detail, and make whatever changes you need to make. Keeping the drawer open and clicking on the Schedules Pane lets you quickly browse through detailed information about schedules. Stop and change anything immediately, including what disk a schedule will be recording to no buried 2-click info window like in EyeTV. Once you have made a change, you must save the changes, reset, or cancel in order to continue. Clicking on the “Submit” button in the drawer both sends your changes to EyeTV, and saves them in iEye Captain. At any point you can hit “Cancel” to close the drawer without saving changes, or “Reset” will reset all of the values but leave the drawer open. Also, you can delete the schedule in both iEye Captain and EyeTV by clicking the “Delete” button. |
"Records to" popup makes sharing disks easy: You can decide right when you create a schedule that you would like it to record to a different hard drive or folder. If you have set up alternate storage locations already, simply choose your desired location from the “Switch to” popup menu. If you need to set locations up, you do so from the “Set Storage Locations” menu item of the Tools menu. When you submit your changes, iEye Captain will add an item to the Batch, which is a queue of items to be moved. For more information, please see the overview of Multiple Archives. |
EXTERNAL CHANNELS IN EYETV: There is a workaround that you should be aware of if you need to indicate external channels for a satellite or digital cable set-top box. Learn more |
