I have just rebuilt my HTPC from scratch and installed MP1.0.1 and MS SQL Express. The MP installation works perfectly and the database tests ok.

However when I go into the TV Servers Tab, there is no Database name or TV Cards listed. So I cannot configure anything.

I have tried a complete uninstall and re-install and get the same problem.

I previously had 1.0 working prior to the rebuild, so I assume it is not a hardware issue.

I have checked the TV cards in the device manager and there appears to be no issues and i have installed the latest drivers.

Can anyone help? I am new to MediaPortal and took a long time to get 1.0 mostly working and so now I am back to square one with way forward.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi there

Maybe you are also affected by the analog bug. The fix is available in this post.

As far as I know there were some problems with 1.0.1 finding TV-cards, and a patch was released to fix it.....look on the first page for "Known Issues and Workarounds" MEDIAPORTAL - free media center - Home and install the patch...

Thanks rekenaar & geov, I will try this patch tonight.

Note that I have a Nova-T-500 (Dual DVB-T) as well as a PVR-500MCE (Dual Analog).

It appears that this patch only applies to Analog cards, so I am not sure why my digital card is not showing either?

Any ideas?
