    Wow, you really may want to give a little bit more information if you need to get any responses any time soon.

    Maybe even start with what help you need and what you have so far as the very minimum. The more info you give us the more meaningful the help can be.

    .. sorry marcus...

    okay let's start what I need..

    1) somebody who can help me to get this card running...

    2) get rid of mediaportal asking me for an tvserver maybe there is just a registry key.. I have no idea

    that's all.

    Due to the fact I am not very technical I am still amazed I've got the XML so far the configuration recognizes the card and scans for channels and lists them.

    so I am 80% sure the card is working.. but then .... big question mark..

    as I said when I am going into "my tv" it always asks for an old tvserver, I re-installed MP two times now.. and have no idea why it is asking..

    Cheers Robertino

    and sorry ... another point...

    3) the manual says it is a DVB-T and analog Card ... but in the conifguration with the XML I just got the DVB-T part running.

    Maybe somebody can help me with the XML for this nice bastard.... (I want to connect my sky-box via RF to it, if possible... )
