PC World - SnapStream's Beyond TV 3 Mentioned

In the 'New Products' section (page 72) is an artical about Beyond TV. Although not a glowing review they give it 4 out of 5 starts. The concers of the author don't make sense though.

"...then to my lack of a DirectX9-capable graphics card (a requirement left out of my setup guide)."

This isn't true, is it? I thought that was the whole reason of Overlay support? Plus I thought some of you guys where running this on old AIW cards??


".... and accessing more-advanced playback and recording features was equally straightforward (though I was unable to retain those changes due to the lack of a save button)."


Ok.... what the hell is the guy talking about here?

Funny: That's been one of the recent feature requests!

The Settings Screen appears "moody" sometimes and "forgetting newly changed settings": It's user error but if there was a "Apply" button or a visual indication once the setting is changed users wouldn't have this problem.

I re-opened a Beta issue: If this guy who is a computer reviewer gets tripped by the interface, many users must too.

Is this in the webadmin or the FSUI?

Actually you just need a DirectX9 compatible card (meaning one that has drivers which support directx9)
