[QUOTE="Marcusb, post: 34377, member: 11550"] OK, first of all, the bad news. Your TV card is a software based card. This means that it is only slightly supported in the version of MP that you are using and is not supported at all in any upcoming versions. Software based cards rely on the CPU to do all the hard work whereas hardware based cards do it all themselves. I would probably first of all recommend installing the latest version of MP, v .2 RC2 and applying a CVS update from around mid Jan (nothing more recent!). There are instructions for this on the MP home page (top left corner, -Daily CVS). You will probably need to modify your capturecarddefinitions.xml file for the TV card to work. I can send you one if needed. Change your video renderer to VMR9. This is seen in the first screen shot you posted. You'll get better performance. With regards to the channels, I have heard of this problem, but it didn't effect me so I didn't pay much attention to the solution. Hopefully someone else did and will post here. I have a feeling that if you do the upgrades I mention this may resolve things for you. The most important thing is that you have to have the channels appearing in the TV channels list in the set up program. Once this is resolved getting your system working should be a piece of cake. It may also be necessary to manually add them. Do you know the frequency of the channels in your area? [/QUOTE]
