I just set up the TV server and my TV card (Nvidia Dual TV) is detected, but when I try to scan for channels it dosen't find anything on either tuner. I have searched through the Wiki and the forums and there seems to be serveral posts on "channel scanning issues" but no answers.... Any ideas?

not sure exactly but is the card a analog tuner? , seems to have a lot of info in the log about analog stuff

Nvidia Dual TV is a hardware-encoding analog card. I am having exactly the same problems with my ATI-based PowerColor Theater 550 PRO.

Does TV-Server not support analog cards?

ATTENTION DEVELOPERS:

This post has been active for almost two weeks and all the replies have been from other frustrated MP users stating they are having the same issues. I have supplied all the specs of my system and the logs. I do understand that there are many other higher priority issues that are being worked on and all of the countless hours that are put into MP are out of your free time. I very much appreciate it; thus far it is an excellent program. I would at least like to be acknowledged. If you don't know how to fix it yet (or don't have the time), a quick post stating that this is in fact an issue and that you’re working on it would be greatly appreciated. THANX!

..... And yes I have read through the Wiki, watched the videos, searched through the forums and done as much troubleshooting on my own as I can think of....

For good order, here are my logfiles again. I've posted them before in another thread, which also didn't get many replies...

I'm having the same problem with my ATI 650 on the analog side.

steve reaver · 2007-02-28, 08:52

same problem here with Compro T750.... TVServer detects the analog card and scans for the channels, but no channels appear in the list. I know I can recieve the channels because then come through on the compro DTV software.
