Hi,

Can someone recommend me a good USB Dual HD Tuner to work with Media Portal, I have media portal running my movies/tv etc but want to get the TV server running as well.

Thanks
Chris:cool:

    google works wonders u know

    i found 2 :
    Pinnacle PCTV Dual DVB-T Diversity USB HD TV Tuner Stick
    DigitalNow TinyTwin


    USB tuners can have poor design, poor manufacturing etc...can be flimsy and break in ur hands when u pick them up or plug/unplug...so if i could i would go with a PCI card..if not a PCI-e card to be honest

    any reception u may get from a usb tuner would be terrible at best and u always need it connected to a wall antenna

    Well, the log doesn't show any problems. I can see correctly tuned channels in the log. It seems to me that the tuner works fine. Can you copy the created ts file(located in your timeshift folder) somewhere else while in channel preview and try to play it in VLC or MPC-HC? PS: You can also try to make short record

    Good evening, the last weeks my MP2.5 Server with TVE3 is running not very good/stable. After 30 min the server quits working after changing EPG from EPG Buddie to Clickfinder (TV Movie).
