Extreme HDTV DGP-HD800 card (1 Viewer)

[gg22]

Was anybody able to sucsessfully add this card to the CaptureCardDefinitions.xml file? I tried with no success...
The card uses conexant 2388x processor so probably should be similar to the ones that are already defined and use the same proc.

Conexant 2388x BDA Tuner/Demod
Conexant 2388x AVStream TS Capture

If somebody has it defined, please post. Thanks.

i tried to add the following entry to the caprurecarddefinitions.xml but still "not recognised";

<capturecard commercialname="Extreme DGP-HD800" capturename="Conexant 2388x AVStream TS Capture"

devid="ven_14f1&amp;dev_8802&amp;subsys_141914f1&amp;rev_05">
<capabilities tv="true" radio="false" mpeg2="true" mce="false" sw="false" bda="true"></capabilities>

<connection sourcefilter="tunerdevice" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="capture" sinkpin="0"></connection>
</connections>
</tv>
</capturecard>

Also played with different "sectionsandtables". Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi and welcome to the forum
You should say if you re using the inbuilt TV engine (TVE2) or TV Server (TVE3). Latest support more cards,

#

any DVB/ATSC card which has BDA drivers
#

any analog card with h/w encoding onboard
# some analog cards which use s/w encoding
#

the SkyStar-2/Airstar-2/CableStar-2 cards

Hi, I'm just using MediaPortal, so I guess it's a built in TVE2.

Well - I'm close but not there yet. I was able to configure GB_PVR to work with my card with the following settings:
[Extreme HD-800]
TUNING_TYPE=ATSC
FILTER_TUNER=Conexant 2388x BDA Tuner/Demod
FILTER_CAPTURE=Conexant 2388x AVStream TS Capture
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport

It started to work when i chanmged Microfost DVB-T to ATSC Network provider.

So why this does not work for MP? I need just a little push in the righr direction. That card is both - digital and analog NTSC tuner. Thanks!!!!

I think you should give the TV server a try (many benefits).

Easy to install when using the newly released RC1.
