[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1160031, member: 82144"] Sounds like a possible driver conflict between the dongle and the card. The DigitalNow Quad card is essentially 4 USB tuners bundled onto one card. If you have one of those, it wouldn't surprise me if installing an additional USB tuner that uses the same chipset as the Quad turned out to be problematic. Nope, I disagree. A cable/antenna that works with the TV is not guaranteed to work with a PC tuner. The purpose of the wiki (manual) is to explain things like that. Please use it. [URL]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/02_TV_Servers#Remove_Tuner[/URL] [B]If you would like me to help, please answer all of the following questions:[/B] 1. Have you always shut down and disconnected power from all devices connected to the aerial/antenna before changing the cables around? 2. Have you fully power cycled ([B]not [/B]Windows restart) the HTPC with the 2 dongles? 3. Is the "quad tuner PCI card" you've referred to a DigitalNow Quad? If not, what vendor/model is it? 4. You said "initially one of the dongles worked" when you connected it to the HTPC containing the quad tuner. Which dongle was it? 5. To get the quad tuner working: have you tried the following process? [LIST=1] [*]Shutdown the PC. [*]Disconnect the dongle. [*]Turn on the PC. [*]Uninstall the dongle driver and software. [*]Uninstall and reinstall the quad tuner driver. [*]Restart the PC. [/LIST] [B]...and please also provide a diagram of your aerial/antenna cabling system [/B](so I can see how many splitters, amplifiers, TVs etc. you have connected). [/QUOTE]
