    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">

    MP2 uses the same TV engine as MP1, so it must work also with MP2, you just need to select TVE3 and not TVE3.5 in the installer. MP2 also supports a 3rd TV engine TVMosaic, but this is configured web-based and I can not tell you, if this works with your hardware.

    You need to check the wiki for TVMosaic, you have recordings as source available once TVM is installed. And of course images and music are part of the NET6 version as for NET4. If you have issues with it further infos would be good.
