Synopsis::

When setting up my TV card (or trying to start TV in MP), I get the error "Unable to create graph for this device!!". I've been searching the forums/site for the past few hours, to no avail. The TV card works fine in Media Center. Here's the applicable piece of Configuration.log:

Any ideas?

See: Hauppage WinTV PVR USB 2 not recognized

My posting of the Capture-Card Defs. The problem is the PVR2. You have to edit it manually in the XML-File.

[klinte]

Ive tried to follow the tips, but I guess I am to stupid, can anyone tell me exactly how to do to get the Hauppague WinTV PVR USB2 to work on MP

PLEAS,,,

[Thorsten]

Just throw this file into the MediaPortal Directory replacing the original one.

[klinte]

How do throw this file in the MediaPortal Directory replacing the old one?
And what file?

[Thorsten]

UnZip the archive attached to my privious post.
You will get a file called "CaptureCardDefinitions.xml"
Move this file to "c:\programme\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\"
It will ask you if you want to replace the existing file. Say "Yes".
Start MP - have fun. It's working 100% for me.

I wrote this file on my own. It's not in MP.
Could anyone of the Devs PLEASE include this. Thanks.

[klinte]

Thanks, I will try it tonight and let you know how it works

I had already found that thread (and copied over the defs), and the problem isn't the card definitions: it recognizes the card fine, it just can't create the graph for some reason. The problem is at this part:

Hi.

I'm using the MCE-driver: http://www.hauppauge.de/pages/support_mce.html
Maybe this helps.
