[QUOTE="Dann, post: 234961, member: 57173"] OK THX for the comment. I can grab the signals from 3 directions (1 slovenian, 2 italian transmitters) in this area (i live 10 kms from the border of Italy), i think that the signal strenght/quality should be ok, except from one (italian) direction. The critical transmitter is located 97kms (straight line) away. I did misured the signal strenght one year ago with a professional instrument (and a measuring FM antenna - i worked at an antenna and tv service for some time) that showed the signal quality not much above the acceptable value, but 2 weeks ago i had the oportunity to put into my pc a leadtek dtv 2000h and connected it into my antenna system (have at least 7 antennas on the roof). The tunner showed almost full strenght, but the picture was freezin' on some of the channels - that means that the quality was critical. Anyway the worst case scenario is to replace the critical (20 years old) antenna and/or put a preamplifier right behind it .... will see how the tuner performs when i'll got it. By the way, i did fire up MP with the leadtek dtv 2000h installed, but the known "cannot create graph" message was shown, then i changed some lines in the "CaptureCardDefinitions.xml", but did not help at all. Is the trick inthere or somewhere else? ... did not have the time to figure it out... :sorry: for all that spam, but i was just in the mood. Dann [/QUOTE]
