Can't watch TV within MP (Hauppauge 1196 WinTV-HVR-1250) (1 Viewer)

[mkdevo]

Hello all,

Been using MP for a couple years now, but just trying it with live TV for the first time, running coax in from an antenna.

In my TV Server Config, everything is working fine - card is detected, strong signal shown, all channels identified, and channel preview works.

However, once I get to the MP front end, I can't get things working. I select 'Watch TV', which takes me to another menu (with options on the left and a black box (TV) on the right). I then click "TV ON", but nothing happens.

What could I be missing here? Why is it working in config, but not through the front end?

I've attached a screenshot of the front end. Can provide config screens/logs too if needed (just let me know which).

MP 1.2.2.0
StreamedMP skin
Hauppauge 1196 WinTV-HVR-1250
Windows 7 x64

Thanks!

Hello, I am new to Media portal 1.2.2. I have an issue with Hauppage 1600 PVR, Windows XP service pack 3, Verizon fios cable.
I am unable to detect channels in TV server Config.
I tried tuning via both ATSC and TV.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

mkdevo,

What happens if you click on TV Guide instead of TV ON?

mkdevo,

What happens if you click on TV Guide instead of TV ON?

After ~10 seconds, it takes me to a screen that asks for hostname/ip address of master tv service. I've tried both the hostname and ip address, but neither seem to do anything (this is the same computer that everything is on):

Can anyone help with this? Would really love to be able to watch TV in MP.

Hi there

Did you confirm in the TVServer config that the server is up and running?
Other than that, attach full debug log files if you need more detailed assistance.
