[b]Remote[/b]: RC6 IR OVU4003/00 [b]TV[/b]: sony, Toshiba, Samsung others [b]TV - HTPC Connection[/b]: none Hello friendly helpers :D I only have an analog tv card at this time and am just trying to get MediaPortal to work as a TV-PVR in anticipation of acquiring a over the air digital tuner for my pc in a few weeks. In the installation process: I answer 'Yes' to the question 'do I want to watch TV?' [b]Do I need to answer 'No' to the question 'Will I watch HD content' ?[/b] (since I have no HD tuners or content) Next question: The quick set up guide says to skip step 2 (scan for tv channels etc) If I am not going to use HDTV. So, If I skip the channel scan - How do I select or set-up analog TV channels? I tried manual setup of one channel and mapped it to my card - but get no signal. Tried channel scan (even though I says not needed) and I find no channels. [b]Is that because channel scan is for HDTV OTA channels only?[/b] I have not been able to see a tv picture after 3 days of trying to install MediaPortal. The card worked fine with installed drivers using MS MovieMaker in video capture mode before I installed MediaPortal and after I uninstall MediaPortal [b]Is it possible my card is really not supported (see above)[/b] I downloaded revision 1.0.0 to install but do I need an update? (one of the RC? thingies). Any suggestions of what to do or where to look would be appreciated. And YES... [b]I installed the dvbfix[/b]. I will reinstall MediaPortal and attach all the logs etc if my situation is not resolved by a simple suggestion for me to accomplish some silly thing I missed in the setup, manuals, searches in forums etc. Just request the logs and I will attach.
