Doing it though a VIVO card (1 Viewer)

[ofird]

I finally got it set up, kudos to Media Portal for being the ONLY !! HTPC application where you can enable Live TV with a VIVO card.

connected via any external tuner (TV or VCR) to the composite or S Video of the card and add the signal as a new channel.

This would enable you to actually grasp any signal digital or analog to the application and record, pause...whatever you want.

I am still testing it, its not a final call, but looks OK.

Currently my video signal is pretty awful, do you know how can I improve it? drivers?

I might have abeen a little too happy

Since the video signal was so awful, I let it go before continuing to test it so much. You can give it a try if you like.
Chris TV does a better job, but it seems that there is no escaping from MPEG-2 hardware decoder on the card after all.
Please update with whatever you got.
