i have the same porblem with my asus p7131 dual... mp can't detect the card, but the card is supported...

Hauppage WinTV USB2

Does not appear on the supported card list, the old version with completely different driver does, so it would need to be added.

Take it you are using driver\software version 3.6e1 (would recommend as latest)

Then have a look at this link.

asus p7131 dual

This is taken from the supported cards page.

"There can be problems using this card, but use the mediaportal forum, a lot of help.

"devid="ven_1131&dev_7133&subsys_48621043&rev_d0">"

to

"devid="ven_1131&dev_7133&subsys_48621043&rev_d1">"

Also this info from same place.

"When original PowerCinema Software is Loaded both Analogue & Digital Parts are recognized but when PowerCinema is uninstalled only Digital Part is Recognized!

Analogue is still however playable using other Capture Software???? "

Hopefully above may help.

hi! know what? i looked in the tv server and my p7131 was detected although this was no the dual type... device name found was "713x BDA Analog TV Tuner"

i can't seem to find this in the capturecarddefinitions.xml file

maybe this is what's causing the problem....

maybe someone knows a workaround on this....

 

[joebobthomso]

ok, so I got this thing to recognize my card by changing the card definitions like everyone else did, but now its giving me that graph error thing....i know i can get this thing to work, i just need a little more help...any assistance would be greatly appreciated!!!!

run graphedit, follow the instructions here

take a screen shot of the results, I use WINSNAP (free) and post back here.

Thanks

Check to make sure you have NTSC selected and not PAL. I had a similar problem when seting up an old AIW card.
