Capture Card Definitions (1 Viewer)

[jimmya]

Excuse me!

Not sure why you are taking this attitude with me. I have searched the guidelines for days now. Paranoid Delusion was kind enough to offer some constructive advice which I followed to the letter. Before setting up TV-Server, my tuner was visible and useable by several apps. As soon as I rebooted, Windows found a 'multimedia controller' which it could not install and the apps that were previously working no longer function. As far as logs and plugins go, I have nothing to share as I haven't been able to set up card yet!

well I just answered your question

What do you have to do to get support around here?

Let me explain why I referred you to the guidelines.
1. Your System specs lack a lot of information. Someone might pick up something with compatibility problems there.
2. No logs provided. One of your postings referred to the config app doing nothing whe you select an option. This might be the result of an exception that will be visible in the log files. TVServer logfiles. I understand you still trying to configure, but that also write logs.

As stated in my previous post, first get your harware working again. Try to uninstall and reinstall the hardware. Try a different usb port.

I get your drift. I should really have started a new thread. If you follow this thread, I am no longer using a USB device. I rebuilt my PC from the ground up and installed a new PCI card - AverTV Bravo Hybrid PCI-E MTVBHPCIR. The fact that it is a Hybrid is why it was suggested to setup TV-Server. I am at work now, but will supply the logs when I get home.

Attachments

As requested I have attached what I believe will be helpful to you. When I reboot there is a 'multimedia controller' device which Windows cannot install. Something strange is that if you look at the sixth image, I have tried to navigate in the ledt window but nothing changes in the right window.

Hope this makes semse!

System

Forgot to include my specs:

CPU AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4800+
TV Tuner AVerMedia H788 PCIe Hybrid Analog/ATSC
Video NVIDIA GeForce 6200 LE
Hard Drive Maxtor SATA 500g
Memory 2g DDR2 (PC2-6400)

Gettiing Further

OK, so now I have installed Intervideo codecs and the analog channel scan finds channel 3. The ATSC channel scan does not find anything. I guess this is because I don't have a digital TV, just digital cable. I believe the EPG grabber only imports channels listed. If so, as channel 3 is the only channel listed, what do I need to do?

Bear with me, I am learning.

Frustrated

Although the scan found channels I still cannot view TV. Streaming server does not find any clients.

 

[rekenaar]

Streaming Server will only show anything if a client is active.
From the channel confuguration, can you preview there?

 

[jimmya]

Yes.....logs attached

 

[rekenaar]

OK, so now you can preview a channel in TVServer Configuration.

Now you are off to MediaPortal.
Do you see the channel there?
What happens when you try to view it?
