EyeTV for DTT: no signal after sleep

Is anyone else having this problem?

Say the Mac goes to sleep, with the EyeTV 2.0 software open. When it wakes up - either due to a scheduled recording or when I come back - the signal is unavailable. This means that scheduled recordings do not take place, and I get a recording of zero seconds and zero bytes. The software effectively crashes, and I have to force quit it or repeatedly select "quit" from the dock icon. Signal can be restored by remaking the USB connection.

This happened with 1.84 as well. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Has anyone worked out what conditions might trigger the loss of signal?

 

Thanks, I'll give that a try (closing before shutting down). But not sure if I understand what you mean by not putting the machine to sleep "out of hours" - i.e. if it will work from sleep if you close EyeTV, then why not put it to sleep whenever?
