Was attempting to set up media portal today and was notified that my card is not supported and to report it to the forum. The card is a PCTV 800i

    Hi and welcome tvbum (nice handle :))

    Were you trying to use the analog input/tuner? If so, you probably just need to install software encoders.
    Having said that, based on the time that you've posted and the type of tuner the 800i is, I'm guessing that you're based in the US or Canada. If I'm right, I would have thought that you would be needing the digital ATSC/QAM side of the card rather than the analog side.

    It depends, if he is connected to an analog cable, he would use the analog part.

    Perhaps... Only way to confirm would be for me to invest in a different USB DVB-S2 tuner (like the Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-S2), which I might do if the issue persists.
