Hi,

I'm new here so please bear with me. I have Hauppauge hvr-1800 hybrid card and am unable to get MediaPortal to detect it. Any advice about future support? Work arounds etc.?

Thanks

If you are talking about the built in TV engine within MP... probably not going to work. I know Dman has been testing the 1600/1800 on the TV server... and has made a TON of progress. I happen to have a 1600 for testing and it does work. Give the TV engine (tve3) a try and it should work for you.

Thanks ASiDiE! I'm going to give it a shot. I'll let you know how it works. Quite a few things to install.

Hi folks,

I've got Tv server installed but card is not recognized. Checked the capture card xml file and there is an entry for 1600 but not 1800.

Any suggestions would be great. Is this going to be future fix? I don't want to keep wasting time on it if it is not going to work.

I am a Java programmer and have been a developer of various languages for 20 years if you guys need help on this. Just need some direction.

Thanks for the help.

Hi,
Last I checked the hvr-1800 card is not listed in the CaptureCardDefintions.xml file. That is where your card gets detected. I have a hvr-1800 and had to add the definitions to the file. I only use the ASTC tuner on my hvr-1800. below is my is a link to my hack at the settings. Good luck...
