TV Card: Hauppauge Win TV Nova DVB-T and Leadtek Winfast PVR2000
TV Card Type: Hardware & DVB-T
TV Card Driver: Hauppauge ver 2.104.22345.0 & Winfast ver. 5.13.22.6104

I have been following the wiki closely trying to get the new engine/mp-combo up and running. My analog card seems to work well BUT my Hauppague DVB-T card cannot find any channels when scanninng. The scan takes about 1 second and then reports the status:
"1tp- 730000 8
Scan done...
Total radio channels new:0 updated:0
Total tv channels new:0 updated: 0"

When I switch to Manual control I can see te analog card being idle and the DVBT-cards state is Scanning. Is it still scanning? I have left it running like this for a looong time but nothing happens. What could be wrong?

I have tried working around the problem by manually entering the channels, since the card seems to be working, but I have not been able to figure out how to do this. I cannot import a backup of the channels that I made in the MP-client and it seems I can only edit the analog parameters of the channels imported from XMLTV.

Please help! I really want to try out the new engine.

Check the log files. Mine says "Exception ... etc" when pressing Scan.

I tried using another DVB-T-"card" - an MSI DVB-T USB-stick and that worked without a flaw. It seems like there is something wrong with the support for Hauppague Nova DVB-T.

It's fixed. Get a new version of TV server.

Works like a charm now ^^
