Mediaportal & Twinhan DVB-T (VP-3021) Problems (1 Viewer)

[alex_l]

Hi all, I'm Alex from Italy, I'm owner of a twinhan dvb-t card, my problem is that apart from Mediaportal 1.3.0 & 2.0cvs-11-03-2005--14-03, I get "Unable to create graph for this device" error.

My pc:
Athlon XP 3200+
2x512mb certified dimm running dual channel
Sapphire radeon 9600xt (latest ATI drivers - Catalyst 5.10)
Generic analog bt878 tv-tuner (co-existing with twinhan and using drivers from btwincap.sf.net)
VisionPlus VisionDTV Ter (Twinhan DVB-T) (BDA drivers 1.2.2.9)
Windows XP SP2 (up-to-date with microsoft update)
On Board Soundstorm audio (nforce2 MCP-T)


First of all, all my tv-related software works great with no conflicts related to the presence of 2 cards;
when i try to add my DVB-T card in mediaportal setup i get the "unable to create graph" error exept using the 2 versions listed above. I use this http://www.kiwi07.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Cards/CaptureCardDefinitions.xml definition file, I manually rewritten the portion related to my card according to the instruction given in the database page....but nothing: every attemp results in the "unable to create graph" error. I tried the latest 1.3.0 CVS, and 2.0 CVS starting from mediaportal-cvs-11-02-2005--23-51 to mediaportal-cvs-11-04-2005--14-49; it was a "no go" for all but mediaportal-cvs-11-03-2005--14-03.
This is the relevant mediaportal.log from 2.0 RC1 (Vanilla):

I also installed this hotfix http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...6D-198C-4197-82AD-28251F9C50A5&displaylang=en with no results.

Finally, mediaportal-cvs-11-03-2005--14-03.rar recognize my card and let me use the autotune funcion but no audio/video output in mediaportal with the included CaptureCardDefinitions.xml as well with http://www.kiwi07.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Cards/CaptureCardDefinitions.xml. I can't try newer 2.0 CVS snapshots because .NET 2.0 is not yet available in Italian. Hope you guys can help.

Thank in advance.

[dman_lfc]

Ensure you install the Mozilla ActiveX control

DMAN

 

[alex_l]

Installed version 1.7.12; now i'm waiting for myshare to be online to download and try october 31st snapshot, hope it works!

 

[dman_lfc]

I would just grab the latest one now since you have installed .Net 2.0

DMAN

 

[alex_l]

.net 2.0 is not yet available in italian, seems i'll have to wait

 

[dman_lfc]

Didn't think so hence why I suggested October 31st CVS build.

I tried october 31st snapshot, the card is recognized, tuning works but no video/audio output in mediaportal. NOw installed .NET 2.0 I'll try latest snapshot.

 

[alex_l]

No way out, tried latest .net 2.0 based version, card is recognized, autotune works, but no video/audio output in mediaportal (with 1.2.2.7 whql drivers & 1.2.2.9). I don't know what to do.
