Hi lads,

I got a little problem getting MP 0.2 to run with a PCI WinTV-Card (model unknown, got it from a co-worker). I didn't get any drivers, so I downloaded and installed the drivers of the hauppauge.de-driver site, rebooted the computer, but there were still unknown devices in the device manager. So Windows connected to Windows Update and another reboot later I now have the following devices in my list:

Code:
+ Sound, video and game controllers
   - Audio Codecs
   - Hauppauge WinTV 878/9 Aux Driver
   - Hauppauge Wintv 787/9 Video Driver
   - Legacy Audio Drivrs
   - Legacy Video Capture Devices
   - Media Control Devices
   - NVIDIA(R) nForce(TM) Audio Codec Interface
   - NVIDIA(R) nForce(TM) MCP Audio Processing Unit
   - Video Codecs

I then installed the WinTV Application and it works flawlessly. When installing MP 0.2, I haven't received any errors (I deinstalled older versions of MP beforehand by "Add/remove Software"), but when starting the application and going to watch TV, the "unable to create graph" error message was displayed. I got into the mp setup, removed the card which is displayed as "Hauppauge WinTV Capture (Hauppauge WinTV 878 based)" which should be correct. I then tried to add the card again and received the following error:

"Unable to create graph for this device!!"

The error is displayed twice. Here is an extract from the log files which describes the problem:

I tried searching this forum for the "unable to create graph" errors, but none of the solutions helped to understand/fix the error and get the WinTV card to run with MP.

Does anyone have some pointers for me? Any more information I should provide for you?

Many thanks,
Sol

AHHHH

You said that there was something else you had to do and that it was in the comments. I looked through that entire article and there are no comments do you think you could post what the other files that you put into your registry.
