Can't scan for TV channels. Error message from tv.log:

14.03.2007 00:06:16 analog: Tune:tv: Freq:0 Channel:106 Country:Germany Tuner:Cable Video:Tuner
14.03.2007 00:06:16 analog: RunGraph
14.03.2007 00:06:17 analog: RunGraph returns:0x8004020A

I installed the server as described in the wiki with three different cvs version ( 02-01, 02-28, 03-13) and also tried grouping and not grouping the cards as hybrid. It says Tuner Locked: Yes but doesn't add any channel. After trying to scan for tv channels the scan for radio channels works, otherwise it says that radio isn't supported. My Radio doesn't work though, it says that it can't start timeshifting. After trying to scan also the Terratec Home Cinema application doesn't work anymore, i have to restart the computer. I removed the card form the MediaPortal configuration by the way. The server engine really looks promising feature wise and i hope i can get it working with my Terratec card on my server as well as the Ati AIW X800 Pro on my HTPC.

I can't test DVB-T, my home town is not supported for at least another year.

Best Regards,
Markus Dütting

Interesting, i'm getting the same error on a Cinergy HT PCMCIA. This is when i'm using tvserver3, but it didn't work with mediaportal standard either (don't have log there thou).

Things work just fine if I build the graph manually. The error code given is VFW_E_NO_ALLOCATOR, so i'm not sure exectly what that might be.

This is from a vista install. Not sure how people generate those long listings, but if it's needed i suppose i could figure out.

error from error.log

it's funny.. here i go complaining on xbmc forums about people not posting the full log files, and i go and do the same.. sigh.. will reget them if anybody has any thoughs on the issue.

could this be something reported by the mainconcept mpeg encoders? anybody else using them for encoding analog content?
