[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 685689, member: 82144"] hi memphisto20 You don't bother me at all - no need to apologise. I confess I am starting to get to the end of my ideas. Some ideas really require me to be at your computer to try them :( I noticed that parts of the configuration XML still don't look right: For example, the video capture device should have the name "Hauppauge WinTV Capture" like this: There should be an audio capture section. The fact that it is missing might mean that there is something still wrong with my patch. I'll take another look when I have some time... The video standard, video-proc-amp and image resolution are also wrong. You can fix these by following these instructions: 1. Open TV Server config. 2. Expand the TV Servers section. 3. Expand the TV server that has the WinTV tuner. 4. Select the WinTV card. 5. Go to the settings tab. 6. Make sure that the "video standard" is set to the correct standard for your country (for example, for me in New Zealand it is PAL_B). You can find what standard your country uses [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:PAL-NTSC-SECAM.svg"]here[/URL]. 7. Select the "frame rate" that corresponds with the video standard. For PAL select 25fps; for NTSC select 29.97. 8. Select the correct "frame size" for your country. I recommend one of the first two - either 720x576 or 720x480. 9. Go to the VideoProcAmp tab. 10. Click on the default values button to reset the brightness, contrast etc. 11. Click okay to close configuration. (12. TV Server should automatically restart. If it doesn't, make sure you restart manually.) Finally, the quality control section has the same settings as for my card, but I see some strange things in the log: This must be because your card is made by Hauppauge and most newer Hauppauge cards support quality control. My logs show: This makes me suspicious. When I have some time I will make a patch that stops the quality control from being used with your card... You may want to take a look at the configuration for my card which is attached. MediaPortal set it up for me automatically... After you've followed my instructions above please try and watch TV again and post the logs. :) [/QUOTE]
