[QUOTE="darthsteven, post: 209862, member: 61333"] 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 :-( [CODE]<capturecard commercialname="PCTV 72e" capturename="PCTV DiBcom BDA Digital Capture (Dev1 Path0)" devid="vid_2304&pid_0236"> <capabilities tv="true" radio="false" mpeg2="true" mce="false" sw="false" bda="true"></capabilities> <tv> <interface cat="capture" video="3" audio="4" mpeg2="1" sectionsandtables="2"></interface> <filters> <filter cat="networkprovider" name="Microsoft DVBT Network Provider" checkdevice="false"></filter> <filter cat="tunerdevice" name="PCTV DiBcom BDA Digital Tuner (Dev1 Path0) " checkdevice="true"></filter> <filter cat="capture" name="PCTV DiBcom BDA Digital Capture (Dev1 Path0)" 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> [/CODE] 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!
