Thank you for trying this again and posting logs
You're absolutely correct - TV Server tries to use a muxer when really a demuxer should be used. That would be the first thing to fix if we were to try and add support for that encoder...

Yes, that is expected. Scanning works because the graph is successfully built and runs. Preview fails because the encoders or de/muxers don't pass audio/video through to the TS writer. It is a little confusing for users when that happens ...

I think providing this functionality would be extremely difficult. That would be like making GraphEdit/GraphStudio all over again!!!
Are you aware of the configuration XML in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\AnalogCard? This allows you to specify some of the preferences that you might want to set by building a graph yourself. Of course it doesn't give you control of the muxers (these are required for the reasons that MisterD already explained) or TS writer connections, but it is better than nothing. Do you really think you need more than that?

That would be the first thing to fix if we were to try and add support for that encoder... Yes, that is expected. Scanning works because the graph is successfully built and runs.
