SDTV shows perfectly with Cinergy 2400iDT but no HTDV channels is shown.
Is this issue a codec problem (I use ffdshow), a driver problem (I've installed latest drivers, all XP update and dvbfix) or hardware incompatibility ?

I'll try other HDTV players (dvbdream, digitalwatch & watchhdtv) this evening but if anyone who can see hdtv with MediaPortal can give me some tricks to do it I'll thanks him (her).

I've forgoten to mention that I have sound but no image when trying to watch HDTV

Well, it seems that ffdshow can't decode H.264 TV streams (it decodes perfectly mkv files) which codec should I use ?

I've tried recording, with ts recording format and rename .ts in .mpg I can play videos with external player. If I select mpg recording format nothing is recorded (zero file size). So, it's a mediaportal bug In my opinion. I attach log files in DEBUG level for a manual recording of about 2mn.

Found other threads about TsReader which not support hdtv, admin can delete this post
