The problem is a little bit funny. If I have a clean WinXP installation and i use MP the autotune don't find any Channel via DVB-T. If I install the original software from Terratec (Home Cinema Software for viewing TV) and choose autotune in the configuration from the program, the TV-Card finds 21 Channels. If I chance to MP and make another autotune i will find 1 channel and its is the last viewed channel from the Terratec original software... If i change the channel and make another autotune via MP it will finds the current running channel. but if i choose the saved channel in MP it shows only a black screen without any sound.
I don't know what to do...

I know that this is an old post, but did you get the XE to work with MP?

It will never work... To much problem with some parts of the driver. This TV-USB-Stick can only run with Terratec Home Theatre software. Its terrible...

OK... thx for quick answer. I'll go for a Hauppauge device.

Again: !

-hi guys


-i have a cynergy hybrid xe usb t.v stick

-the problem is i cant see any picture when viewing live t.v but the audio is clear.

-funny enough when i record t.v [note that i cant see any pictures when viewing t.v] and stop the recording and go play the recorded video file, it plays with clear picture and sound as well.

-i have tried to contact terratec but they havent replied to me now for two weeks.

-what could be the problem?

-1GB RAM, nVidia GeForce 128mb

Check your TV video codec settings in MediaPortal configuration...
