I have the Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-USB2 model 24019 Rev.E189/

my CaptureCardDefinitions.xml is:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

</capturecards>

I can add a card in the MP setup, but I get two warnings:
"unable to create graph for this device".

Please advice to make this work for media portal.

I have almost the same problem. I have the Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-USB2 model 24029 Rev.E189 from the MCE kit.
CaptureCardDefinitions.xml entry:

<capturecard commercialname="Hauppauge PVR USB2 AVS Video Capture" capturename="Hauppauge PVR USB2 AVS Video Capture" devid="vid_2040&amp;pid_2400">
<capabilities tv="true" radio="true" mpeg2="true" mce="true" sw="false" bda="false"></capabilities>

<connection sourcefilter="crossbar" sourcepin="1" sinkfilter="capture" sinkpin="1"></connection>
</connections>
</tv>
</capturecard>

I get the same warning.

----------------------------
UPDATE - Progress...
----------------------------

Im getting one step closer after playing around with graphedit. Needed to add some filters to CaptureCardDefinitions.xml and make some new connections. Mediaportal now finds my card and can scan for channels (and finding them). The only problem is that I do not yet have a picture, Im just able to read teletext. I think the problem is the MPEG-2 Video codec. I cant find any valid connection to any filter using graphedit. Anyone have any suggestions?

Anyway my new CaptureCardDefinitions.xml entry looks like this:

<capturecard commercialname="Hauppauge PVR USB2 AVS Video Capture" capturename="Hauppauge PVR USB2 AVS Video Capture" devid="vid_2040&amp;pid_2400">

Below is the entry I created to clear up the problem for me. I have not had any issues with it thus far in Windows XP SP2. I have sent an email off to see about getting it added to the natively supported list. I hope it helps.

Hi!
I tryed using your entry, but I still cant get a picture. What MPEG-2 Video codec do you use?
