I'm trying to get the Pinnacle PCTV DVB-T USB Stick Ultimate working with MediaPortal. It isn't supported out of the box, but does work with MS media center, but I like Media Portal!
I've got the details from graph stat as in the guide for adding your own TV card, they are as follows:
Capture name: "PCTV DiBcom BDA Digital Capture (Dev1 Path0)"
devid: "vid_2304&pid_0236"
Tuner name: "PCTV DiBcom BDA Digital Tuner (Dev1 Path0) " <- note the space
So i add it to my capturecardDefinitions.xml file, but no dice :-(
But when I go to MediaPortal configuration, it says that no capture cards are connected.
I've also managed to set it up in GB-PVR using the same settings, so I don't know what I'm doing wrong, and any help would be appreciated!
MediaPortal Version: 0.2.3.0 or SVN - doesn't work with either
MediaPortal Skin: defaut
Windows Version: XP
CPU Type: Athlon XP 3000
HDD: 120GB
Memory: 512MB
Video Card: Geforce MX 420
