Optional Log:
Optional References:

Synopsis:
There is no picture in MYTV, just a black screen.

The capture device is connected OK and correct input (SVHS) is selected.
This problem occurs when updating from MP 0.1.3 to 2.0.0.0 RC2.
When reverting to 0.1.3 all is well.

Using Graphedit I notice that MP now connects for Teletext and believe this causes the problem, since, in the UK, Teletext on this capture device has never worked for any application.

If the Teletext part of the graph is removed in Graphedit, the graph plays OK.

I would appreciate any advice on how to prevent MP from trying to use Teletext.

Thankyou , pcr

the pctv deluxe usb works fine for me, teletext starts, but doesn't show anything. I don't care for teletext, though. TV is good.

johnbobjamesson,

Thankyou for your reply, are you in the UK ?. I know it sounds odd but I believe that UK Teletext possibly locks up the PCTV, whereas elsewhere in Europe it is OK.

regards, pcr.

For the record, this problem has been fixed by rolling back the Pinnacle driver to 1.0.3.105.
