    I don't know your TV-card (or STB) but you should control your STB using IR-blasters that comes with the MS MCE remote

    What do you mean (exactly) when you say "setting up" your card?

    I meant that I installed the card, start up MP but MP wont recognize my card, has any1 experienced this, I know that MP has classified this card as a Analog Software decoder card, but still I cant get to make it work

    evecadu,

    Are you using MP only or TVServer? I think MP alone is not supposed to recognize analog cards.

    Please post your TVServer logs if you are already using it.

    Im using MP alone, so theres no way of using an analog card with it, is Tvserver the same GUI as MP, what are the advantages?

    Tente isto:

    Baixe o driver mais atual no site da Pixelview

    É necessario instalar os codecs da Intervideo senão não vai funcionar (uso o WINDVR3)


    <capturecard commercialname="Pixelview Play TV MPEG2" capturename="Conexant Capture" devid="ven_109e&amp;dev_036e&amp;subsys_00000000&amp;rev_11">

    Hi. I was probably being a bit fast and loose with my terminology. I meant "somewhere within the files that MP2 uses in its database".
