Hi again

Well done! I think you are quite close to getting the card working...
I think to get the graph working all you would need to do is to select the frequency/channel for the tuner and the inputs on the crossbar. To do this right click on the tuner and select properties. Select and apply the frequency you want to tune to and the video format that you want to use (for example, PAL_B). Make sure that the tuner is "locked" after you apply the frequency. After that, right click on the crossbar and activate the tuner inputs. Of course you need to be aware that the graph won't play if the tuner is in use (by TV Server or some other program). At the end of the day it is not the end of the world if the graph doesn't work - the most important thing is that MediaPortal works .

As for getting the tuner to work in MediaPortal itself: perhaps the TS writer or muxers are not compatible with the Avermedia encoders? I would try different encoders such as the ATI AVIVO encoders or the Intervideo encoders from WinDVR 3 (you didn't mention whether you had installed these already). Make sure you prioritise the new encoders above the old ones or they will not be used. It is a case of trial and error I'm afraid
