Technotrend budget S-1401 working

[williMeier]

Hi folks,

I've seen many of the HTPC progs out there but MP is by far the best!!! Thank you ...

Today I was able to run my Technotrend DVB-S card with MP.
Following is a patch for CaptureCardDefinitions.xml

http://frankdataservice.dyndns.org/tt-s-1401.txt

With this setting I was able to watch live TV. But unfortunately a little bit sticky and sometimes with crashes. I did the tests on an "old" xpsp2 and on a fresh install of xpsp2.

The channel scan runs without errors only on the fresh xp.
But on the fresh xp configuration.exe failed at start and on <OK>.

Machine is a 2ghz p4 Dell Optiplex 260gx with a nvidia fx 5200 done by msi and 512 mb ram. Technotrend's TV prog runs fine.
MP is RC 4 with latest SVN.

It would be very nice to use MP but until now it is not usable by the rest of the family... Hope you will fix the sticky live TV soon because there are many more users with the same prob as i read here.

have a nice weekend
frank

p.s. just found :wink:
