The EyeTV Viewer window displays live or pre-recorded programs on
your Macintosh. This chapter describes how to use the EyeTV Viewer
window.
Watching Live Television
With EyeTV you can watch live television in several different window sizes
or in full screen mode. A live television window always appears immediately
after EyeTV is started. Live television can be manipulated (i.e. paused, instant-
replayed, fast-forwarded) at any time using the Controller buttons (see Chapter
3, The EyeTV Controller) or using commands from the Controls menu. To close
or re-open the Live TV Window, select Close Window or Open Live TV Window
from the File menu.
Watching Multiple Programs
EyeTV supports multiple Viewer windows so you can watch live television in
one window and/or multiple pre-recorded programs in other windows (To learn
how to watch multiple pre-recorded programs, please see Chapter 4, The EyeTV
Programs Window).

Changing the Size of the EyeTV
Viewer Window
You can change the size of the EyeTV Viewer window by grabbing the lower
right corner and dragging it diagonally.
The following pre-selected sizes are also available from the View menu.
To watch full screen:
Select Enter Full Screen from the View menu or press z-0. To exit full screen
mode, press the Escape key or press z-0 again.
To watch in a small size window (160x120):
• Select Small Size from the View menu or press z-1.
To watch in a half size window (320x240):
• Select Half Size from the View menu or press z-2.
To watch in a normal size window (640x480):
• Select Normal Size from the View menu or press z-3.
To watch in the largest sized window that will fit on your screen:
• Select Maximum Size from the View menu or press z-4.
Changing the Aspect Ratio of the Viewer Window
EyeTV will automatically try to choose the correct aspect ratio. Typical TV has
a 4:3 ratio, while a few widescreen formats also exist. If you would like EyeTV
to always choose a certain ratio, you can pick that from the View menu. This
could be useful if you are trying to remove letterboxing, or display content on
a widescreen monitor. Your choices are 4:3, 14:9, 16:9 and Wide. Some ratios
may visibly remove part of the image, to make it fit that shape without otherwise
stretching or distorting the picture.

Adjusting the Display Options
You can adjust how the Viewer Window presents video. Overscan masks the
edges of the window, to hide unwanted visual data. Deinterlace takes the
visible lines usually present in an analog TV signal and blends them together.
Motion-Adaptive, the default, intelligently deinterlaces when needed. You may
want to turn Deinterlace off if you are going to have EyeTV output directly to a
TV set, like through your computer’s S-Video port.
Closed Captions
Most programs in the US have embedded subtitles, known as Closed Captions.
These are designed for the hearing impaired, with extra features that normal
subtitles don’t have.

To turn on the display of Closed Captions, go to View – Closed Captions.
EyeTV 200 (in US and Canada) is the only unit that currently supports Closed
Captioning.
Snapshots from the EyeTV Viewer
Window
If you want to capture a snapshot of the current frame of video, you can press
z-C, which will save the picture to the clipboard. Or, you can press Shift-z-C
which will create a snapshot file on your desktop from the active video window,
named “EyeTVSnapshot.jpg”, “EyeTVSnapshot[1].jpg” and so on .
