For another, it hides any setting any reasonably proficient user would want to modify this is the trying-to-be-user-friendly-by-hiding-all-options approach that Microsoft likes to use, but taken to the extreme.
Also, once I picked a channel line-up, there appears to be no way short of reinstalling to change it and, in the end, I couldn't select the actual channel line up I have, and was limited to only the first 80 channels in the interface.
The fact that I got a rude email from one of their tech support reps was just the final nail in the coffin. I'd recommend copying the install disk to your hard drive, then downloading all the file updates from the Hauppauge support page. Then, you replace the files in your local Install Disk copy with the updates, and run the install program.
There are three versions you will see being discussed on message boards and in help files: 1. Classic black [ HCWClassic ], 2. Improve Sharpness : this is from the cask-of-amontillado site.
Enable Closed-Captioning : again, from cask-of-amontillado. Some people may not care about this maybe why Hauppauge disabled it , but I use CC very frequently, and I want it on my recordings. You listening Hauppauge? You need to fix this. Below I will include information about my PC, Video card and the problem which may help.
I have contacted Hauppauge and they know about the problem but aren't able to fix it. PC Info. Make: Dell Dimension RAM: 1GB. McAfee Security Center. TV Card Info. Driver Version: 6. What Happens. I open 'Media Center'. I select 'set up TV'. I get the following message popup "Windows Media Center Receiver Service stopped working and was closed". I close the message. I click "ok". WinTV and all of its functions work fine until the system is rebooted. When windows comes up again, it recognizes the card as a new device and must be reinstalled in order to work again.
Windows will detect the card when you reboot and should reassign the resources for it. Both models will have the same capture and TV functionality.
To access that option, click and hold right mouse button then go down to video out and uncheck Local Playback. You can also turn off Video Out in the same menu selection. This error will occur if Overlay is not working properly on your system. Make sure your graphics card supports Overlay. Also make sure that there are no other programs running that require overla, ie; Windows Media Player.
This error may also come up if the Software Decoders have not been installed. Reinstall the software codecs. Also, be sure that the VGA cards hardware acceleration settings are on Full. This error will only come up if the VFW drivers have been installed on the system. To correct this error, run the PVR48xxx. Also, if this error is seen during the driver installation procedure, try reseating or moving the WinTV board into another PCI slot s , making sure that it is firmly in place.
The latest updates to MovieFactory can be found at: www. Download Prodinfo. The driver for the device must be installed in order to run Prodinfo. I played around with it after my post and was able to setup my channels.
I updated that file with my channel information. Then you need to make the file read only, otherwise it will get over written when you do a channel scan. During the channel scan it will take all the channels defined in that file. Then go and add the listings to each channel using Guide Tool. Thanks for the instructions. I got mine working. I have one problem, my TV provider is not listed in windows channel setup. So I had to use the cable company as the source for channels.
I have a local IPTV service. There is no option to add a channel to that tuner. I also tried Guide Tool and it also will not allow me to add channels to that tuner. Is there any way to manually add additional channels?
Otherwise, I can only setup channel numbers that match a channel that is in the cable lineup. Karl, I think I would go the route of trying to delete all hauppauge and starting over. There is a utility that should be in the hauppauge directory or I think it is also on the Hauppauge site called hcwclear or something like that, sorry, not at my htpc at the moment.
That should clear out everything related to hauppauge. Me again. I have been using TME 2. Now, when I open TME 2. Is there codecs out there that I need to install? I Thank You in advanced. I just wanted to update: I made a few changes to my setup using the new drivers and it is currently much more stable, I no longer get BSODs. I found a simple way of doing this, at least on my MB, the back USB ports mounted on the MB are all 1 controller and the pin connectors for front or back external ports are on the second controller.
Also, it seems Hauppauge is working on the issue as I eMailed their support department with the issues I was having and they replyed back within roughly 2 hours! Thanks for the update. Good news about Hauppauge. Let me know if you hear back from Hauppauge about anything new. I stumbled across the previous version of drivers, tried them but after 2 hours of tweaks I could not get the channels to blast at all!
I have since went back to the current release and have not had the BSOD since but on occasion I now get the weak signal message. Has there been a fix for that yet?
Then I reinstalled everything fresh. Even went through tuner set up on Media Center.
