[QUOTE="knacka01, post: 155318, member: 52227"] Hi all, Im keen to get a Compro Videomate U500 USB tuner to work with MP but im having difficulty. Ive downloaded & installed the latest MP and all extra required software, got latest tuner drivers off Compro site. Ive edited the CaptureCardDefinitions.xml to add the card in. MP Setup detects the card, but says 'cant create graph' When I run MY TV in MP i get the msg, 'cannot add filter for Videomate U500....' Ive downloaded latest SVN, which had a Compro U3 entry, which is almost the same as what I have, so edited my config to me similar but still no luck. Heres my definitions file entry; <capturecard commercialname="VideoMate U500 Family" capturename="VideoMate U500 Family BDA Digital Capture (Dev1 Path0)" devid="VID_185B&PID_1E80"> <capabilities tv="true" radio="false" mpeg2="true" mce="false" sw="false" bda="true"/> <tv> <interface cat="capture" video="2" audio="3" mpeg2="1" sectionsandtables="5"/> <filters> <filter cat="networkprovider" name="Microsoft DVBT Network Provider" checkdevice="false"/> <filter cat="tunerdevice" name="VideoMate U500 Family BDA Digital Tuner (Dev1 Path0)" checkdevice="true"/> <filter cat="capture" name="VideoMate U500 Family BDA Digital Capture (Dev1 Path0)" checkdevice="true"/> </filters> <connections> <connection sourcefilter="networkprovider" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="tunerdevice" sinkpin="0"/> <connection sourcefilter="tunerdevice" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="capture" sinkpin="0"/> </connections> </tv> </capturecard> The MP Error.log has the following; 2007-06-11 05:44:05.046875 [ERROR][6]: Filter tunerdevice not found in definitions file 2007-06-11 05:44:05.171875 [ERROR][6]: DVBGraphBDA: no moniker found for filter:VideoMate U500 Family BDA Digital Tuner 2007-06-11 05:44:10.093750 [ERROR][6]: Command:MediaPortal.TV.Recording.ViewTvCommand failed reason:Failed to start TV Cannot add filter VideoMate U500 Family BDA Digital Tuner time:93.75 msec So I figured it must be the device name, but if I change it in the definitions file, MP Setup doesnt find the card at all anymore, so i think the devid is correct.
