Check the CaptureCardDefinitions.xml file entry for the dual digital (can find it with a search for "dual 1" and dual 2 is right below that). Make sure that the graph you build in graphedit containing the filters for the card matches this entry.

The filters are correct, but i am unsure what pin numbers i should be looking for. The card is detected fine in mp, but even with exact frequency entries in the dvbt.xml no stations are found.

You need to hook the filters up together. Put in a Microsoft DVB-T provider (under BDA providers or something, can't remember the exact names and don't have access to my MP box at the moment). Then put in the BDA Tuner and Transport Stream Capture filters for one of the two tuners. Then hook the filters up together (I believe it goes DVB-T Provider -> BDA Tuner -> Transport Stream Capture). Then there should be an output pin on the last filter (called Mpeg2 something). Right click this ping and click Render Pin. The pin numbers you want to check are the ones on the Mpeg2 demultiplexer. This used to be in the information under the supported capture cards, but isn't there anymore (which is a shame because it had pretty pictures and the like which would be really helpful).

Oh wait, I found it as one of the old revision. I really wish this hadn't been deleted as it is really useful to help people check their filters. I would add it back in but I don't know why it was removed or if it has moved elsewhere.
