pinnacle hybrid stick 320e and 330e (1 Viewer)

1. TV Card Driver: latest WDM or Beta

Need BDA driver, not WDM driver installed, see if there is a choice on driver installer (on CD), or search the Pinnacle website.

sure. Its a new laptop (dell inspriron 6400) with usb2 ports.

@ paranoid: I have a pinnacle certified driver (WDM) and a new beta driver (unsigned). Is this aan BDA driver? How can I see it? Or how can I get al BDA driver?

Too see which drivers are installed go to device manager\sounds video & game controllers, expand the view and look for Pinnacle device, right click on it and select properties.
Then view driver details, you should see the very first couple of items with the letters "bda" within the name.
If that ok, then you have to add the card to the supported cards list using graphedit, go here and follow the instructions.

This one works for the DVB-T part of my 330e (to add to your CaptureCardDefinitions.xml ) :

<capturecard commercialname="Pinnacle PCTV Hybrid Pro Stick" capturename="BDA 2883 Capture" devid="vid_2304&amp;pid_0226">
<capabilities tv="true" radio="false" mpeg2="true" mce="true" sw="false" bda="true"></capabilities>
<tv>
<interface cat="capture" video="2" audio="3" mpeg2="1" sectionsandtables="5"></interface>
<filters>
<filter cat="networkprovider" name="Microsoft DVBT Network Provider" checkdevice="false"></filter>
<filter cat="tunerdevice" name="BDA 2883 TVTuner" checkdevice="true"></filter>
<filter cat="capture" name="BDA 2883 Capture" checkdevice="true"></filter>
</filters>
<connections>
<connection sourcefilter="networkprovider" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="tunerdevice" sinkpin="0"></connection>
<connection sourcefilter="tunerdevice" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="capture" sinkpin="0"></connection>
</connections>
</tv>
</capturecard>

I have no idea for the analog part however.

<capabilities tv="true" radio="false" mpeg2="true" mce="false" sw="false" bda="true"/>
<tv>
<interface cat="capture" video="2" audio="3" mpeg2="1" sectionsandtables="5"/>
<filters>
<filter cat="networkprovider" name="Microsoft DVBT Network Provider" checkdevice="false"/>
<filter cat="tunerdevice" name="PCTV 330e/800e BDA TVTuner" checkdevice="true"/>
<filter cat="capture" name="PCTV 330e/800e BDA Capture" checkdevice="true"/>
</filters>
<connections>
<connection sourcefilter="networkprovider" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="tunerdevice" sinkpin="0"/>
