I cannot scan any analog TV channels from my Compro T750f hybrid card. MP crashes with a "setuptv has stopped working" message each time I try to scan analog channels. Digital channels scan fine. I have attached a zip file as per the tutorial on posting logs. Hopefully someone can help me sort out this problem.

Have also tried mapping it to XBMC also, using event ghost, girder, intelliremote, etc - no joy. It registers as HID device, not ehome device, which means its not a proper MCE remote. If you use a 'real' mce remote...

MP1 MP2 Next recording alert (1 Viewer) DE
I've had the same problem. I've developped a small program that I used as a shortcut for shutting down my PC.

Unfortunately, due to MP evolution on database format, it doesn't...
