Does EyeHome support HDTV resolutions?
Does EyeHome support HDTV resolutions?
Solution
Yes and No. The EyeHome hardware runs at a native 480p (720 by 480) resolution. It can scale this to 720p (1280 by 720) or 1080i (1920 by 1080), and the scaling is high quality. You pick the resolution you want in the EyeHome Settings screen. You can also choose standard TV resolutions.
Only video that is 480i or less will play. EyeHome cannot play HDTV video from EyeTV 500 or any other source, due to its higher bitrate and resolution above 480i.
EyeHome can't play any 480i/p (SDTV) video from EyeTV 500, so it can't work with EyeTV 500 at all.
When displaying high resolution photos from your iPhoto library, like multi-megapixel JPEGs, EyeHome first scales the image down to 480p. From there this 480p version will be scaled to the current display resolution. This means that you won't see your picture at full resolution, even if you pick 1080i. You'll always see the 480p version scaled up.
