Hauppauge WinTV-PVR USB2 - See device but can't watch TV (1 Viewer)

[epinFLA]

I just got the Hauppauge WINTV-PVR USB2 - it works fine with XP MCE, but I can't seem to get the TV to work correctly (or at all) in MediaPortal. The watch TV button won't even light up. The software sees the device, but I am not sure what I need to do to get it to work.

Thanks

SW cards are currently not supported, however go here: https://www.team-mediaportal.com/news/global/adding_support_for_mpeg-2_software_encoders.html

if your card is the same as mine it should work.
did you set up cable/antenna and your country? Did you do an autotune in the setup? Does the card work with other tv software?

Khris (the pvr is a hw-card, those without the pvr in the name the sw ones)

Ah sorry.....I read the post quickly and didn't see that. I've got a Hauppauge USB card myself, but not the hardware version and so I jumped to conclusions! DOH!
