I can't seem to get GB to detect my Diamond PVR560. This is a Conexant Falcon based card. Is this supported? If not, has anyone gotten this card to work in GB?
Quote: Is the device name something different then how it would be listed in Device Manager?Yes. You'd need to download GraphEdit (google for it) to find the appropriate names for your device.

GB-PVR will always use the hardware encoder. It expects data coming from the device to be in MPEG2 format.

I don't have any filters (besides those you say to ignore) under BDA Receiver Components or BDA Source Filters. Here's everything I have entered in direct.ini. Note that I am missing the pin info. Do you forsee any problems?Surely that doesnt work!? Ok, it could if all the pins for this device were the same as the defaults (which were based on PVR250 names).

For analog card being added to direct.ini, you dont need to look in the BDA Receiver or BDA Source categories. Instead, you need to look in the filter categories at the bottom of the list with names like 'WDM Streaming Capture Devices' and 'WDM Streaming Crossbar devices' etc.
