Iguess people aretrying to fill the gap in the market left byElgato. Frustatingly, I can't find any mention of apple compatabiliy:

May I suggest, if you buy from Amazon, you use the ?URL and choose a charity that you’d like to support? It doesn’t cost you any extra because it’s Amazon that makes a small donation from each purchase you make. ?My charity is the RNL (I had to spell it out in full) and Harvey’s is the Devon Air Ambulance. Just a thought and it makes you feel virtuous! I think they do it on all their sites. Best Susan

Susan its not the stick is the issue — its the software to drive it unless its 64 bit is not going work from Catalina onwards. Eye TV taken over by Geniatech and they have produced 64 bit version of the software however no one has yet says it works. I don’t want to pay up if its not going to work and some people have paid and not got the serial number to insert to make the thing work. So thats somewhat in suspension at the moment. ?
I’m keeping my old stick going on the old computer for the moment…..and only solution for the newer Mac at the moment would be to go backwards in system and tech is suggesting thats not a good idea…..but then lots of things would work again. And its my Mac !!!

I can't recall exactly, what I read about Geniatech, but. Elgato were based in Germany. I think customer relations are still there but instead of being able to converse in English, I had to converse in German. Then I found out hardware & software production were in China. I was told I'd have to buy hardware then software (instead of getting the whole kit ? ? ?,as with Elgato). It's also substantially more expensive. This gave me pause for thought. I can send the emails if you like John

You don’t have the right info. If you check the website they have absolutely no stock to sell anyway and thats why if you search on ebay Elgato sticks are for sale at extraordinary prices. They are still about if you want to search for one second hand.?
But its no good without working 64 bit software — thats the whole bottom line. ?So look all you like but it wont work without the 64 bit software. And Geniatech are not really forthcoming. I downloaded the software but I haven’t yet paid for it because they plain are not answering. I think they just bought eyetv out just to stop anyone else having it frankly and not really gone on with it. There are people saying in the comments that they have paid for software and it doesn’t work, or paid and not got the serial number to activate despite ongoing attempts. Its not looking good.?

Got one Jude, but I have Catalina now. I think you are probably right about Geniatech, certainly wouldn't surprise me! Amazon sent me another reference, asked the appropriate question & they passed the buck to the manufacturer, another Chinese firm. Probably won't get a reply John
