[QUOTE="JDWestoby, post: 546942, member: 72093"] Just swapped out two of my FloppyDTV cards (which seem to have died at the same time) for a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-4000-HD quad PCI card. (Had a Pinnacle in for a while, that kept breaking up on FreeView, this seems MUCH better.) I'm trying to suck in the Sky box signal via the S-Video line on the card (Not composite that has the FreeView CoAx in there) and using the WinTV software that comes with the card (Nice one Hauppauge, works quite nicely) it comes up OK. Sound and vision all working (blanck & white until my RGB-S-Video converter turns up - sigh, so much money Sky have cost me). But enabling the S-Video channel under MediaPortal/TVServer when I try to preview it I get the SWEncoder missing. (See - I got there in the end.) Two things - (1) It is working under WinTV so it either doesn't need one (I set hardware enabled but not sure if it is actually useful/used) (2) I can't see anywhere that I can tell TVServer about a SWEncoder. Oh, if I try to tune analogue channels it crashes TVServer Configuration (as noted elsewhere) - but I don't have analogue signals so we'll ignore that. Anyone know what I doing wrong? Thank you for any help. It'll be both nasty and nice when the new version comes out - I can finally get down to a totally clean install (but I also have to remember what to do/rejig afterwards). I DID find the manual page mentioned in another replay ([url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/UserGuides/SW-Cards_setup[/url]) but I don't have an Encder section in MP COnfig. My list goes - Pictures, Remote, Direct Show Filter Control, Weather, Plugins. The Direct Show entry has 6 Decoders, no Encoders! [/QUOTE]
