You found one. Congrats. There's certainly nothing at all preventing
Elgato from fixing that issue themselves - even today, before El Capitan
is released. Apple has very detailed documentation here:

<https://developer.apple.com/developer-id/>

I own an EyeTV hardware product and have used their software
extensively. It is notoriously buggy and not well designed, and their
updates historically have lagged behind OS updates, often leaving users
with broken functionality while we wait for them to release fixes. It
wouldn't surprise mt to see the same thing happen with El Capitan.
