Just got my EyeTV today.

I set it up and it's working, but I'm getting these crazy constant clicking sounds from my Sound Sticks when using EyeTV and I don't know how to get rid of it.

I can hear the audio from the TV show on the screen but the clicking sounds over power it (I don't get it with any other app).

Any ideas? the EyeTV is plugged into a power USB hub and the Sound Sticks are plugged into one of the USB hubs on the back of my Powermac.

Oh and one other thing, my channels are all screwed up when my cable connection is plugged into the EyeTV box, not the same as my cable box.

Is there a fix for this too?

the fact that you have two high drain products plugged into your USB ports might be interferring? I have an eye tv, and havn't experienced the situation you are describing.

Firewire isn't just for higher resolutions or faster transfer rates - it also provides far more DC power (watts) than even USB 2.0 ports are capable of. Hopefully, El Gato will release a Firewire version soon - including DV res <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> .......joe
