[QUOTE="Enigma_2k4, post: 495363, member: 97000"] Hi all, I am new to Media Portal, but my first hand impressions are EXCELLENT! I am so impressed, I never knew an open source project could be so good! I will certainly be making a donation if I can get my little "niggles" sorted out. Basically, I think the problem is with me and not the software. However, I cannot makes use of my TV card in media portal, it works fine in the native software in windows but not in Media Portal. I think the challenge might be because it's using a direct component input (yellow RCA plug) and not the normal cable input with channel select. Anyone have any idea's on what I need to check to get it working? Details: OS: Windows XP SP3 Media Portal version: Not sure as I'm at work so cannot check off hand, however, it was downloaded 4 days ago so I presume must be the latest version. CPU: AMD Athlon 3000+ VGA: Nvidia Geforce 6600GT (PCI-X) TV Card: Leadtek Winfast DVR The video input comes in the form of a composite connection (RCA cable) directly into the input in the TV card from my satellite top set box. As previously stated it works fine when using the Winfast PVR software that came bundled with it. Any suggestions and assistance would be greatly appreciated! :thx::thx::thx::thx: [/QUOTE]
