terratec cinergy dt usb xs diversity (1 Viewer)

[midiboy]

Hi !

has anybody been able to make any progress on this issue yet ? I experimented with various xml versions for this card but none worked. The official one included with all the SVN versions only supports one tuner, the ones in this thread throw "cannot create graph" messages etc.

I did write a message to dman a while ago as mentioned in this thread:

https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/getting_your_h_w_tvcard_supported_you-t1573.html

but I did not get any response and nothing changed. Other mediacenters like Nero Home do support both tuners why is it that hard for Mediaportal to support it properly ?

Actually this whole capturecard.xml thing is tedious in my opinion. If the Windows drivers of a TVcard are installed MP should just support the card without the need for manual intervention through means of an xml file.

Sorry for the rant but what else should a "normal user" without programming skills do in such a case ? (and I did play around with the xml code for a few hours)

Working ...

Hi again,

situation changed somehow in the latest SVN builds. I was able to get the second tuner to work by copying the existing entry in the capturecardsdefinitions.xml and modifying the Path setting in the second entry. (no more "graph creation problems")

<capturecard commercialname="Terratec Cinergy DT USB XS Diversity" capturename="Cinergy DT USB XS Diversity Digital Capture (Dev1 Path0)" devid="vid_0ccd&amp;pid_005a">
<capabilities tv="true" radio="false" mpeg2="true" mce="false" sw="false" bda="true"/>
<tv>
<interface cat="capture" video="2" audio="3" mpeg2="1" sectionsandtables="5"/>
<filters>
<filter cat="networkprovider" name="Microsoft DVBT Network Provider" checkdevice="false"/>
<filter cat="tunerdevice" name="Cinergy DT USB XS Diversity Digital Tuner (Dev1 Path0) " checkdevice="true"/>
<filter cat="capture" name="Cinergy DT USB XS Diversity Digital Capture (Dev1 Path0)" checkdevice="true"/>
</filters>
<connections>
<connection sourcefilter="networkprovider" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="tunerdevice" sinkpin="0"/>
<connection sourcefilter="tunerdevice" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="capture" sinkpin="0"/>
</connections>
</tv>
</capturecard>

<capturecard commercialname="Terratec Cinergy DT USB XS Diversity" capturename="Cinergy DT USB XS Diversity Digital Capture (Dev1 Path1)" devid="vid_0ccd&amp;pid_005a">
<capabilities tv="true" radio="false" mpeg2="true" mce="false" sw="false" bda="true"/>
<tv>
<interface cat="capture" video="2" audio="3" mpeg2="1" sectionsandtables="5"/>

<filter cat="networkprovider" name="Microsoft DVBT Network Provider" checkdevice="false"/>
<filter cat="tunerdevice" name="Cinergy DT USB XS Diversity Digital Tuner (Dev1 Path1) " checkdevice="true"/>
<filter cat="capture" name="Cinergy DT USB XS Diversity Digital Capture (Dev1 Path1)" checkdevice="true"/>
</filters>
<connections>
<connection sourcefilter="networkprovider" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="tunerdevice" sinkpin="0"/>
<connection sourcefilter="tunerdevice" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="capture" sinkpin="0"/>
</connections>
</tv>
</capturecard>

Now, who do I have to write to to get this integrated into new builds ?? Dman ?

Thanks,
Alex
