    Hi,
    my mediaportal has been runing well, with only the quattos tv tuner card(its is 2 x dvb-t and 2 X dvb-s),
    but Ive bought a tiny twin USB 2 tuner card(it is a 2 x dvbt using af9015 chips)and now and its having problems.

    In device manager sometimes - often - the tinytwin "disappears" after reboot or resume, causing mediaportal to crash- and mess up preset recording.
    I tried MCE standby tool, but it didnt help.
    Ive tried - the newer tinytwin drivers from the download page
    -the mce standby tool
    -different usb ports
    -reinstalling the USB drivers for my motherboard.
    -yelling at it.

    My usb keyboard mouse and MCE remote all work ok.. And when i unplug it and re plug it , it is found again.

    Maybe i should have bought a pcie tv card instead.

    any ideas??

    Drivers are not initialising quickly enough, go to TVServer config\general\delay, set delay detect cards to either 20 - 30 seconds.

    also in TVServer\plugins\powerscheduler make sure reinitialise tv cards is enabled.

    thanks for the quick reply!
    I have tried those things but no go- I think it is a prob with my xp-mobo-usb and not a mp issue.
    The device vanishes from xp's device manager so mp hasnt got anything to find.
