Hi! I would like to use my very old typhoon tv card, but it's not recognized by MediaPortal. It doesn't show up in the configuration wizards and i have no idea on how to get MediaPortal working with it. However, i have the drivers from the manufacturer installed and Windows Media Encoder can use it.

Is there a way to get it working with MediaPortal?

Here are the product numbers of my TV Card.
Product: Tv Card 506844803890
ArtNo: 506844803890


Any help apreciated.
Andreas

    I assume that it is an analog software encoding TV card? (if its not, please tell us what type of TV card it is)

    If so, here are the instructions for getting it added to MediaPortal... :)

    Please note that you will need a P4 2.8GHz processor or faster for this to work correctly.

    It's an analog TV card. yes
    there's no radio, no possibility to insert a private channel tv card like Premiere..

    ok.. i have several problems ;)
    1) My computer only has 2.67GHZ (P4) :) As i read it could work, but..
    2) i have thousands of filters installed
    3) the manufacturer was not clever enough to name his filters with the name of the tv card
    so 4) i don't know which filters to choose

    Some more details about my card:
    installed drivers: 50684_E_1_1031.zip
    Chipset: Conexant Fusion 878A
    product page: http://www.typhoon.de/de/art.php?p=1385
    manual: http://www.typhoon.de/de/art.php?p=1385&pv=6
    drivers: http://www.typhoon.de/de/art.php?p=1385&pv=5 (please note that i have a 8 (eight) digits serialnumber..)
    technical infos: http://www.typhoon.de/de/art.php?p=1385&pv=3

    By the way: if i could use the Composite input way, this would be enough for me.

    Hope that some infos help
