[QUOTE="Donald J. Michaud, post: 1153090, member: 155049"] For almost one month now, I have been struggling to get a new DVR configured. Let me give you some history so that you know what my end goal is. I am currently running WIN7 with Microsoft Media Center for the software. The hardware is a Hauppauge HVR-2250 tuner card with it’s built in IR transceiver, a Comcast Set-top box (model DCI05COM1) which is a small Digital-to-Analog (DTA) converter. I need to get a new DVR arrangement created because when I upgrade WIN-10, the Media Center software goes away. I would like to continue to use the Hauppauge HVR-2250 tuner card, but now upgrade to MediaPortal (either 1 or 2), IR Server Suite for the IR Blaster functions, and a USB-UIRT blaster (new because I cannot get the Hauppauge IR Blaster to work with WINTV8 or MP). I bought Jon Rheese’ USB-UIRT unit, loaded the drivers, but cannot get it to function. On the forum there is a page that talks about HD-PVR and Colossus cards with IRSS integration. ([URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/hauppauge-hd-pvr-colossus-support.94850/'][U]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/hauppauge-hd-pvr-colossus-support.94850/[/U][/URL]) The problem is I still cannot get it to function. The TV tuner shows a blue screen during PREVIEW. I am in the USA, and cannot figure out what decoders to use. I can get WIN-TV8 to work; I just cannot change the channels because the Hauppauge does not support my STB. I am willing to work with someone to get this operational. I need to get two computers set up the same. Once I can get one working, then I know what to do for the other. I have been in the IT industry for 25 years and this one has me “on the ropes.” [/QUOTE]
