Hi,

new on here my first attempt to MP and a media build
Installed TBS 6920 and complete at scan in the uk on Eurobird at 28.2.
Channels found and listed in tv server but when i go to MP it says no free card available.
Tried switch CAM on/off and also set up a delay for card recognition but no luck.
Also switched off MCE media services to stop conflict....

Really stuck now, any ideas. The tv listing has the channels listed but no joy.

Hi,

been playing with settings. Added channels to a favorite list. Since doing this i do not get the no card error. The MP screen just goes blank. Bringing up Task manager says MP is running but i cant do anything.

Please help!

One thing ive noticed when i am on my tv server setup and have the option to preview a channel i just get a black preview screen. Is this related to drivers?

I have a Sapphire Radeon HD5450 installed. (1GB DDR3)

Thanks all.. desperate for this to work!!!

    I am not an expert on reviewing logs and am a Docs member, but hopefully someone else might be able to give your logs a more detailed review. However a couple of points which might help:

    1) You will want to turn the CAM off, since you are not using a CAM to view this channel.
    2) It looks like you have two DVB-S/S2 cards, are they both connected to an LNB and tuned?
    3) If you are now not getting any "No Signal" errors, have you setup your codecs correctly?

    hi all,

    thanks for the help . Seems to be working now. It was to do with not setting up favourites it seems. Put them in and off it went....strange though.

    I wouldn't say I was actually much help - I went down with a sickness bug and have been off line for a while.

    I am glad you got it sorted.
