Tuner card questions (2 Viewers)

[oldblue]

Here's my definitions. Still can't get the caerd to work though. MP recognizes it, but I don't see or hear anything when scanning in the config menu. Thought it might help things along though.

What I now need is a screenshot of the graph that is created when Media Portal is scanning for channels. Use GraphEdit for this, and select to connect to a remote graph.

Here is the XML for the Saber 2020 as given to me by DMAN. I haven't had a change to try it yet, but here it is.

Hello,
I recently purchased the Vista View Saber 2020 and found this tread on supporting it...

The card is still not in the list, is it now supported? Or what still needs to be done to get it supported...

 

[buggerr]

Well I bought the card yesterday and it worked in MediaPortal with the default firmware (v1.4) and drivers (from cd). After a update to the latest firmware and drivers it won't be recognized by MP. The reason why I updated, is because with the default firmware and drivers I got an error when I recorded something from live TV. The error caused MP to close down.

The strange thing is, in Windows Media Center the card works perfectly.

I also checked the file CaptureCardDefinitions.xml if the VistaView Saber 2020 is listed. It is, and the vendorID and the deviceID haven't changed, so I don't know why it doesn't work.

Now I'm going to try to get it to work with TV-engine, maybe thats different.
