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.

    The only configuration that is certain to work is when the MP client and MP server are from the same release. It is sometimes possible to use MP clients from a release that is different to the MP server, but whether it works depends on the specific changes that were made between the two releases. -- from CyberSimian in the UK

    4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1
