I would like to know as well, since I too own one of these cards. However, I have only ever used the external usb connector, not the internal one. Has something broken for you?

Why would anyone want to do this.

but feel free if you want to try this one.

Well it appairs as if nothing bad happened to mine.

I was having a lot of trouble getting it to work, only one tuner was being detected and the remote was not working. So I see this USB cable sitting there, hmmm maybe im suposed to plug this in, so I did. Which made windows go nuts (I already had the internal one pluged in), there is a new usb device, no there isn't, yes there is I can not identify this usb device, and it stopes being detected, then gets detected again, etc.

So I was in a very bad mood just having broken my new tuner card which was about 2 weeks old, and I go out and buy a new one. This time the Dual Digital 2. Now my original card is working fine and everything is great.

Except I have a brand new tuner card sitting here doing fucking nothing. So if anyone wants to buy a Divco dual digital2 I've got one for sale.

Too far to post.

But seriously, Is the dual 2, a fully PCI board.

One thing you may find is the USB tuner does not properly initialise after Hibernation.

Which has cost me a few dropped recordings.

Thought this had been resolved with the reinitialise option in powerscheduler, but still not working consistantly.

So for a new PC I am going to build, with a Pure PCI or PCI-e Dual Tuner wanted.

Thanks for any info

It no longer uses the USB connector (although it still has the internal connector on the PCB). I believe it is the same in all reguards excpet that both tuners use the usb to pci bridge instead of just one. So it should solve that problem.

New Dual 2 then.

Make sure you are using, 0.2.0.0 + svn (10881 i am using at moment) So install but do not configure until svn overwrites files.

Or wait till 0.2.0.5 is released.

Thanks for the update on the card.

Cheers

or someone can just give the relevant part of the "capturecards.xml" file that is specific for the card ??
