Q:

What is the future for iEye Captain? (Updated 5/26/2008)

A:

I always knew that Elgato would catch up with me -- iEye Captain was mainly useful during the time EyeTV was not delivering infrared or multiple hard drive support, and now that these are both possible within EyeTV, interest in my app has really bottomed out. As a result, I can not afford the development time necessary for a full Leopard update.

Version 1.0.8.3 has been workable on Leopard for most users -- if you have bugs to report, by all means please do email them to me. I can't promise any ETA, but if I get enough requests I will try to put some time in within the next few months.

iEye Captain's tool box, including rapid-fire screenshots, iCal, alias, and text exporting, infrared control for countries outside the US, savable advanced searches, and other features are still useful, and most are unlikely to be added by Elgato anytime soon.

It's up to you to try the app out and see if it's current functionality is useful enough to you. If enough people buy the app, I may consider putting more time into development. However, you must know that if the current trend continues, it is likely that 1.0.8.3 will be the final version.

Thanks for understanding,
Graham Jones,
Developer.
