[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 673398, member: 82144"] Thank you ce6at for the logs and screenshots. That was exactly what I needed :thx: As I suspected, the main reason that analog doesn't work on the BGT3595 is related to the crossbar. I own 2 Pinnacle PCTV 7010ix cards. They are almost exactly the same as the BGT3540. Analog works fine for them. The critical difference (between the BGT3595 and BGT3540) is that the BGT3540 crossbars have "video tuner in" and "audio tuner in" pins (you can see this in the attached screenshot). There are two ways that we might be able to solve this problem: A. You mentioned that you saw *2* "7231 BDA Analog Xbar" devices in the list. I was not expecting that. Perhaps the second crossbar has the pins that are missing from the first crossbar. Please take a screenshot of all the crossbars in your system: 1. Run GraphStudio as administrator 2. Click on the "graph" menu, then click "insert filter" (1st item). 3. In the top left box select "WDM streaming crossbar devices". 4. In the box beside it select "all filters". 5. Select each filter (one by one) and click on the "insert" button to add the crossbar to the graph. When you have finished you should have 5 crossbar devices showing in the graph. 6. Take a screenshot. B. The pins on the crossbar might be labelled incorrectly. This is unlikely. To test this, please try 1. Add all the crossbar filters to the graph using the instructions above. 2. Add the "7231 BDA Analog TV Tuner" from the "WDM streaming TV tuner devices" category to the graph. 3. Try to connect the "analog video" pin on the "7231 BDA Analog TV Tuner" to each of the video pins on each of the crossbars. To do this: i. Hold your mouse over the "analog video" connection. ii. Click and hold the mouse button down. iii. Drag the mouse over to a pin named "Video ******" on a crossbar. An arrow should appear as you start to drag. iv. Let go of the mouse button when the mouse pointer is positioned over the crossbar pin. v. If the line between the tuner and crossbar *stays* then they are successfully connected. If it *disappears* then the connection failed. vi. (You can only make one connection to each pin, so to try the next pin you may have to break a connection. Click on the arrow. It should be highlighted in blue. Press the "delete" button.) 4. Please tell me if you are able to connect the tuner to any of the crossbars. I need to know the name of the crossbar as well as the name of the pin *for each successful connection*. The other problem is that there is a bug in TV Server. TV Server should try all the available crossbars (you have 5), however it only tries the first. I have fixed this bug and created a new DLL for you to try.
