[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 775542, member: 82144"] Hi and welcome 900spg :) Yes, the Colossus is supported with 1.2.0b. Some people struggle to get it working though as there are a couple of patches that you need to apply to get it working and TV Server wasn't really designed to support capture cards. If you're not that technically oriented and can afford to wait until MP 1.2.0 rc is released then I'd probably advise you to do so. Otherwise, follow the instructions -->[URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/mediaportal-1-talk-45/hauppauge-hd-pvr-colossus-support-94850/"]here[/URL]<-- to get it up and running. Note that you should make sure you *do not* install the WMC Colossus plugin - it will cause problems. We'd be happy to help with any problems that you encounter in that thread. :) We don't officially support the Windows Server operating systems because they don't support BDA (the Windows framework for TV) out of the box. Having said that, people have managed to get *some* TV features working ([URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/installation-configuration-support-53/how-install-mediaportal-windows-2008-r2-x64-only-81774/"]here[/URL] would be a good place to start - I know the title says WHS2008, but I'd bet they've been discussing 2011 even though I don't follow the thread). To be honest I think you're going to find it difficult if you go that route because the Colossus is supported as an analog crossbar device (not via the new pseudo DVB tuner which is used in WMC - that wasn't available when we started working on support) and the first page of the thread clearly says *analog cards are not supported*. Completely up to you. The PVR-250 is supported, but again the caveats with the server OS apply... :) As I already said, TV Server was not really designed to support this.

Nope, I think I've said all that I can say except good luck! :) mm [/QUOTE]
