AND I USED GRAPH EDIT DIDN'T REALLY KNOW WHAT I WAS DOING BUT I DID GET AUDIO BUT I COULDN'T GET VIDEO COULD SOMEONE PLEASE HELP?

Please don't double-post - I have removed your other posting on this same topic.

Also, please do not write in all CAPITALS, as it gives the impression that you are shouting and it is harder to read ...

I don't think that your video card is adequate - please scheck the minimum requirements. This is probably why you don't get any video - MediaPortal requires a DirectX 9 capable video card.

Sorry about the double post that was a accident and i didn't know about the caps.

My video card works fine with wintv also when i used graph edit i didn't get the video lines connected all the way from tv tuner to crossbar then to the capture devise and that was as far as i could get it.

Can i post my CaptureCardDefinitions just my section is 25 lines i didn't know if that was to much?

I checked my video card does support Directx9

Could you post a screen shot of this as an attachment so we can have a look at it?
