Problem finding Hauppauge WinTV Nova-TD USB (1 Viewer)

[simnor]

Hi, I just bought this USB tuner from Ebuyer: Hauppauge WinTV Nova-TD Diversity USB Stick with Dual DVB-T Tuner comes complete with dual portable antennas Retail Boxed - Ebuyer

I went into the Media Portal configuration and tried to add it but it cannot find it, anyone know how I can solve this, I have tried about 10 different pieces of media center software and none of them match up to MediaPortal so I'd really like to get this working.

Any help much appreciated

Thank you

Simon

You need TVServer to use this card, so when you do install, just accept all the defaults.

Make sure you have all relevant codecs in place before installing MP (mpeg2 are supplied), also you would be very lucky to get this to work without a outside aerial, just be warned, if in doubt make sure it works with hauppauges suppled software first.

Also read this TV-Server - MediaPortal Manual Documentation most of the configuration is now done for you, so its only a matter of tuning both tuners, then editing which channels you want, change recording folder if you want, enable epg to be grabbed from dvb stream.

Then you can walk, just don't try running just yet

Hi, thank you, I'm currently at my office so I'll try that when I get back. I have it set up with an outdoor aerial and the WinTV software picks up all the channels perfectly.

I'll update when I get back

Thanks
