[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1178965, member: 82144"] Hi This sort of behaviour has been reported before for various USB tuners. For example: [URL]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/usb-tuners-changes-periodically-device-path.133473/[/URL] [URL]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/two-peak-22-dual-tuner-issue.109046/[/URL] Although your tuner is a PCI card, it's actually built using 2 x Realtek RTL283x chips (DVB-T/DAB/DAB+/FM => USB) plus a USB to PCI bridge chipset. In other words, it's like a USB tuner on a PCI card. Therefore it can suffer the same problems as regular USB tuners. From a TV Server perspective there's nothing we can do about the situation. TV Server only creates new tuners when Windows tells TV Server that there are new tuners available. So, the fault is either with Windows... or more likely, the tuner driver. At your own risk, you could try the suggestion to disable the shell hardware detection service from the first thread linked above. Disclaimer: I have no idea what the effects of doing that could be, so I do not recommend it and I take no responsibility for the consequences if you decide to try it. Regards, mm [/QUOTE]
