[QUOTE="Golden-Orb, post: 271460, member: 70898"] Steve, I finally got it to be recognised with the release of MediaPortal/TV-Server 1.0 RC1. I then ran into the same problem that I was getting with Windows Media Center under Vista. I found that when the system came out of standby it ran Live TV for approximately 60 seconds and then froze the TV and displayed the message "No TV Signal, etc". I contacted Compro but their suggestions were the obvious - update mobo bios, uninstall and reload drivers, etc. I had tried all their suggestions before contacting them. My final step was to purchase a Hauppauge WinTV HVR-2200 PCIe Hybrid Analog/ Dual Digital TV and FM Tuner card from PricePoint at a cost of $191.60. I uninstalled the E700 and installed the Hauppauge card and without making any other changes Vista Media Center had the Hauppauge card up and running without any problems. I can now bring my system out of standby without TV freezing and receiving the "No TV Signal, etc" message. I've yet to reload MediaPortal/TV-Server and try the card under TV-Server but I'm very optimistic. I'm also about to send an email off to Compro telling them that the Hauppauge card has succeeded in the area where their E700 failed. If I was you, I would forget about the E700 and pay the extra cash for the Hauppauge - you also get access to FM. [/QUOTE]
