I searched but couldn't find the answer - Is the multiple dvb tuners bug still present in WinXP sp3? TIA.

Hi Mechaelrmgre,
I'm not sure which bug do you mean, but after installing SP3 for WinXP you need to install again the DVB hotfix. Firewire and Videoplayback hotfix you don't need after installing of SP3.

The page showing OS requirements states that a bug in WinXP made the use of more than one DVB tuners impossible. I was wondering if this restriction is fixed in sp3. I have two dvb tuners (Leadtek Winfast DTV1000T). I was wondering if I could use them both? Thanks.

Hi,
If you install DVB fix you can use as many DVB-Cards as you can install into your PC with WinXP as operation system. The files in the DVB fix comes from Windows MCE.
This bug will be not repared in WinXP because Microsoft will sel Windows MCE and not WinXP as multimedia OS.

    ... and yes it is still a problem in XP SP3. Microsoft never bundled those updated MCE files into XP.

    In the UK, the EPG transmitted in the DVB-T datastream allows each programme to have two genres -- a primary genre, and a secondary genre (i.e. a subgenre). The primary genre might be something like Film (or Movie in the USA). The secondary genre for Film might be something like: Action, Comedy, Crime, Fantasy, Romance, Science...

    It's getting weirder..... If I remove all the IP cards in the TVServer setup and then add them back I can scan the M3u and tune the stations but if I rescan it on the same card it just keeps updating the 1 channel. My brain is melting.........
