[QUOTE="Marcusb, post: 154216, member: 11550"] if you are not sure then it's pretty certain you have the TV engine v2 as this comes with MP. The v3 needs to be downloaded and isntalled separately. V2 will only pick up cards that have been programmed into the capturecarddefs.xml file. There is a sticky thread on what you can do to get your analog card included in this. Otherwise, if you install V3 of the tv engine then it will recogniseany cards that Windows can see. There's a bit more fiddling getting v3 to work, but in my opinion it's well worth it. Bear in mind that the analog part of a hybrid card is never usually very good. It's a software card, which relies on the CPU to do all the hard work. If you really want to watch a lot of analog TV you are much better off getting a dedicated hardware MPeg2 encoding card, like the Huappage PVR150. [/QUOTE]
