But I digress.) The MacBook, as most of you know, is a fantastic computer – blazingly fast compared to my 1 GHz PowerBook G4.īut the transition to the smaller monitor really threw me. (The fix included refrigerating my apartment to 50 degrees and suspending the PowerBook over a tray of ice cubes. Although I was able to fix it later, I needed a working Mac immediately, so I picked up a new MacBook.

A few weeks ago my beloved 17-inch PowerBook died on me. But the best thing about it is the 23-inch monitor.

I’m fiddling a little more before I buy ScreenRecycler (like, does it work better upon startup?), but it looks pretty promising. It was always hard to switch tuners anyway, at least with the Apple Remote. It does, however, mean that it is a little cumbersome to switch between tuners (need to view both monitors, and do some more swizzling), but it’s workable.

This enables me to edit a movie while Jaq is watching another. This apparently has the side effect that quicktime movies will also play on this monitor, so that’s quite good.įinally, I made new Live TV and Recording open in a new window. I then went to the EyeTV preferences, and made sure the full-screen display went onto the “real” monitor. I made the ScreenRecycler display run in a higher resolution (1280x960, so that it fits nicely onto my external monitor on my laptop at full-size). I then loaded up the Displays preference pane, and moved the menu bar to the ScreenRecycler display. I was using ARD (and still do), which when I then reconnected showed me the whole desktop, with a menu enabling me to choose which display (or both) to view.

I’m hoping it’s pretty safe…Īfter running ScreenRecycler when the system has the driver installed, I needed to run JollysFastVNC to get ScreenRecycler to give me a second display.

You may need to restart if this is the first time you have run it, as it installs some driver.

Thus, with some swizzling, I can have the EyeTV full-screen display on the “real” monitor, and the desktop on the other one.ĭoing this means that I can happily edit a movie (say, to remove advertisements), whilst the TV still displays the live TV (or being viewed video). However, using ScreenRecycler, it seems like I can trick the Mac Mini into thinking he (his name is jens!) has two monitors. One annoying thing is that to set up a new smart playlist, or edit a movie, or do anything on the machine, whilst I can remote in and do stuff, this all displays on the TV. It runs EyeTV (by default), and can play movies stored on either a local FireWire hard drive, or a LAN server (running OpenSolaris, and using ZFS, incidentally). I have a Mac Mini that records all of my favourite programs (almost) automatically.
