further invetsigation....

Thanks Guys, for the pointers,
My Mistake.
I didn't realise that CVBS meant composite. I added composite in via the button on the TV Channels screen, assigned inputs to composite 1, Then I downloaded my Channels and edited each one so that the input source was changed to 'external set top box' and composite1. (took ages!!)
Then I went into capture cards, selected card 1 -edit- and on the device properties I select 'video crossbar' and set it up for composite video in.
I am presuming the crossbar is the PCI backplate with the inputs?
I then start up MP and run the setup wizard and perform a manual scan but get only snow and no channels found....
Blanked the config for the video crossbar and tried again, same results...
No Channels found anywhere during the set up. Then the strange thing, exit set up and go into MY TV and there is a picture!!!!
Check my capture log, still reporting no signal....
At last, Im off to play now and see whats what

Cheers for the pointers
