Data exporting: iCal schedules and reminders |
iCal reminders can become a very essential part of your EyeTV experience, whether it's just letting you know when your show is on so you don't miss it, letting you know when it's time to change the channel on the digital cable or satellite controller if you don't have an infrared device, or simply being able to view "what's on" in a handy printable daily, weekly, or monthly view. The default settings are set up to be the most commonly used selections. If you wish to view the settings, select the Tools > iCal Reminders menu item. From the settings window you can perform an export by hitting the "Export iCal" button, or click "Save All" and perform the export later either by selecting File > Quick Data Exports > Schedules to iCal, or by clicking the Quick iCal toolbar button (you may need to click the "Customize" button on the toolbar, and drag the Quick iCal button into position on the active toolbar). iCal will open up, and you will see a calendar populate with your EyeTV schedules! |
Default settings for iCal reminders: • iEye Captain will create a calendar in iCal named "EyeTV Schedules," or over-write it if it exists already. |
Try it once, and see how handy it is to have a daily, weekly, or monthly printable view of what's on! There are some other cool options you may wish to choose: |
Handy options for iCal reminders: • Try setting the "Reminders" popup menu to "Message" or "Message with sound," and the time to "5 minutes before." Now you will never forget when a show is on! |
For more information on these and other options available, please consult the iEye Captain manual. |
