  First stage of HTPC project proves tricky - The Tech Report - Page 1
VER SINCE WE first reviewed an early version of Snapstream's Beyond TV, I have had some form of Shuttle box or the like running this program in Damage Labs, ready to stream video over the local network to any box in the house.
My first step was to rebuild this existing Beyond TV box with better hardware and a newer version of Beyond TV.
Beyond that, I've confirmed my fears that the generally-quiet Shuttle box is still much too loud for a living room environment, and that you'd darn well better have a good wireless keyboard and mouse combo before you attempt to use an HTPC, especially in the setup stages.

Beyond TV 3 is available either by download ($59.99) or CD ($69.99), but the installation process is the same for both.
Beyond TV 3 comes with the ability to be managed from a remote computer even to the point of scheduling recordings while you are away from home.
Beyond TV 3 timeshifts the TV signal so that it is about 3 seconds behind the live signal.

 Amazon.com: Beyond TV 4: Software   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Beyond TV supports multiple tuners so two or more shows can be recorded at the same time.
I also figured out it was the main cause for Beyond TV not working literally 60% of the time, because as I mentioned, if there is a problem with the guide you can't view a show at all.
With Beyond TV 4, we can access the DVR over the internet from work to add shows at the last minute (my wife is in PR and needs to record clients on news programs during the day).

Beyond TV 4 will not only support ShowSqueeze to DivX, but will also enable watching live TV and recording direct to DivX from software encode cards.
Users who own both Beyond TV 4 and Beyond Media will be able to upgrade to the fully integrated product for free when it is released.
Snapstream will be much better served working with the CE manufacturers in supporting the DTV Link interface via Firewire from Digital Cable Ready TVs rather than dealing with the cable STB manufacturers.

 TechnoFile Reviews Snapstream's Beyond TV   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Perhaps their most lovable feature besides recording TV a la VCR is their ability to pause or rewind “live” broadcasts for those times when the phone rings or something else rears its ugly head when you’re watching that pivotal scene or play in a broadcast.
The disadvantage is that you need to have your PC close enough to the TV (and your TV programming input, whether it’s cable, antenna or satellite) to make it work and PC’s (thanks to their internal fans) are a lot louder in your home theater than a standalone PVR.
One place the SnapStream product really shines is for PCs that already have a TV tuner card built in, since in that case all you need to do is buy the software and you’re off to the races (or whatever else you’re recording).

Beyond TV includes a SmartSkip feature that, when enabled, creates chapters in your recorded shows when scene changes occur.
Beyond TV's on-screen interface has large text and icons, so you can see and navigate around the interface from a couch rather than your desk.
When we set Beyond TV to integrate with our Direct TV Basic service, all local channels (plus a handful of some of our favorite channels) were hidden by default.

 SnapStream Beyond TV 4.0 Review - Download Squad
The Beyond TV moniker was applied to SnapStream's offering back when they transitioned from version 2 to version 3 of what was then simply known as SnapStream Personal Video Recorder.
You will notice that Beyond TV is not an insubstantial piece of software; the setup process takes some time, but with version 4 they appear to have nailed it.
Although Beyond TV won't automatically skip commercials for you, it can analyze a show after it has been recorded and determine with a high degree of accuracy where the commercial breaks are.

 PCWorld.com - SnapStream's Beyond TV 3   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
SnapStream's software has long been tops in turning a PC into a device for digitally recording television, and Beyond TV 3--the latest update of the SnapStream package formerly known as Personal Video Station--continues that streak, although it still feels a bit rough around the edges.
Installing Beyond TV 3 itself didn't go as smoothly, owing first to a driver problem and then to my lack of a DirectX 9-compatible graphics card (a requirement left out of my setup guide).
New to the software are SmartSkip, which attempts to identify commercials on recorded programs for easier bypassing, and ShowSqueeze, which lets you compress recordings further for archiving or for transfer to a handheld.

 SnapStream Beyond TV 3 review by PC Magazine
And even if you have to add a tuner card, the Beyond TV 3 software is still the way to go, considering how close it comes to the TiVo or Media Center PC experience.
Beyond TV 3's SmartSkip feature lets you avoid commercials in shows you've recorded by marking chapter points at scene changes.
While streaming Live TV, the only downside is you can't flip channels fast, a small price to pay for not having to buy a portable TV, and being able to watch CNN on my front porch or in the backyard.
