Hello, (I am a newbe)
I have just installed a Dvico Dual Digital 4 TV Card and it seems to run ok (even though channel changing is a little slow). I then went a bought another Card. They
both install correctly and work well by them selves well but when I try to add both cards it will not pick up the send card. In Device Manager all 4 tuners show up under Location 0. Even though Windows sees the 4 tuners MP does not find all of them.
Does anyone know how to get MP to find the 2 extra tuners ? :confused:

    What version of MP are you using?
    Very early versions had issues where identical cards didn't work, but that was solved over a year ago from memory.

    do the four (total) tuners work together in the Dvico app? This will help rule out if it is a hardware issue...

    Also, maybe try TV engine v3 as this has a totally different way of handling tv cards...

    I can tell you that if you move to the lastest mediaportal and vista x64, your channel changing will happen in a split second in HD on the dvico.. i used to get 3 sec delays between channels switching and alot of stutter when hte channel came on.. now it's flicks perfictly...

    Hello Marcusb
    I have been testing the Dvico app and it seems to be working fine.
    I am running MP 0.2.2.0 with SVN version of about 2 weeks ago.
    I didn't want to use TVE v3 yet as it is still in beta and not yet stable.

    are you using 2 Dvico Cards ?
