As a voice actor he also performed in Disney's 25-minute animated featurette The Prince and the Pauper (1990). In 1991, he played Ray Krebbs' son Jock in the Dallas series finale "Conundrum".
His best-known role as a child actor was starring in the role of Eugene "Sponge" Harris on the two-season Nickelodeon television series Salute Your Shorts (1991–1992). In 1992 he was nominated for a Young Artist Award for "Best Young Actor Co-Starring in a Cable Series" for the role. Since 2010 Eyster has appeared in various reunion gatherings of the show's stars.
After the Salute Your Shorts series was discontinued in 1992, except for a role in an episode of Babylon 5 in 1998, Eyster took a 21-year break from screen acting, resuming in 2013 as an adult actor after changing his first name from Tim to Trevor.
