[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 735253, member: 82144"] Hi again Kirk I had a look at your latest logs several times, but they're *incredibly* long - 8000 lines for the TV log and 8000 lines for the error log. That is because it looks like you've scanned over and over again, and each frequency that TV Server attempts to scan causes at least three errors... Here's the thing: you shouldn't actually even be able to scan. It is abundantly clear from the logs that TV Server is simply not able to initialise the tuner correctly.

Download and run [URL="http://blog.monogram.sk/janos/2009/06/14/monogram-graphstudio-0320/#comment-34293"]GraphStudio [/URL](no installation required). 2. Click [in the top menu] "graph"->"insert filter...". 3. In the first field in the top left corner, select the "WDM Streaming Crossbar Devices" category. 4. Ensure that "all filters" is selected in the second field. 5. Double click on each entry in the list (or use the "insert" button) to add each crossbar to the graph. 6. Do the same with the "WDM Streaming Capture Devices" category. 7. Close the popup (hit escape or use the red cross in the corner). 8. Take a screenshot ***using "graph->"make graph screenshot"***, paste it into paint (or something like that), save, and then post it here. If the tuner worked in WMC then it is certain that the tuner can work. Issues 2 & 3 aren't common, but we can check them with the screenshot that I've asked for. It is still possible that issue 1 is the problem. Have you installed ATI software (aside from video card drivers, Catalyst Control Centre and AVIVO filters)? If so, that needs to be uninstalled too... [/QUOTE]
