Hi.

I've been rebuilding our HTPC, with a fresh install of everything, and after getting around the anoying XP selection of an incorrrect driver for my Compro T750F tuner, everything looks good......

I managed to Tune all the channels and get the Guide synced from 4therecord.

And watched some TV.

And then when I re-booted the P.C. selection of a channel in MP resulted in the msg "Unable to allocated Tuner"

I then went into TV Server Config to perform a preview and found that the Tuner type was set to unknown.....

I then found that the tuner was having an IRQ conflict with the graphics card.

So moved the tuner to another slot and restarted, and reinstalled the drivers etc. Now the tuner is there, and preview works once tuned, but there are all these dulicate channel entries and It says I have two tuners, one for the old slot and one for the new....

What is going to be the best approach to clean this up?

I did a clear of the channels before I re-added them, but still things are messy (to say the least..)

Is there an easy way to resole this or uninstall and reinstall TV server.....

If I need to do this then can I save all the settings, and Moving pictures and TV series stuff to save time....

Thanks for any advice,

HEATH

bump.....

THis is still an issue. When Going into TV server configuration, under TV SERVERS and then looking at cards, I see my videomate t750F there twice, but both entries have Unknown as their type.

TheVT logs shows the cards are recognised;

Looking under TV channels in the TV SERver I see they say "Channel not mapped to a card"


I am not sure what is causing this issue,,,,,


I have MP 1.0.2. with MPStreamed, Moving pictures.. and 4TheRecord.

Looking at the Channels in MP I see the message unable to start timeshifting, no free card available......

I am hoping that someone will be able to help me,,

HEATH
