Hey guys, im a new user, but i need some help 
Recently i purchased a "Wintv 2000xp" tv tuner. (i know i know, supposedly it isn't supported by GB-PVR). I installed the tuner which came with a program called Winfast PVR. (this was crap, because it doesnt have a schedule system, or way to record). I understood that my card "isn't supported" but i installed a few drivers that were suggested to get it to work. When i open the configure menu i can choose from "WDM recorder plugin" and when i look under settings i can find and select my card. Also i selected the "zap2it" option which installed and loaded correctly. So i open up my GB-PVR program and the tv program guide (EPG) works fine. But then whenever i go to "live TV" it does not give me an error message or anything, but all it displays is a blue screen and no sound. i assume that this means that recording tv will not work either.
i assume this is a problem decoding the incoming tv signal from the card. either that or a mpeg decoder problem.
can anyone help me out with this problem? (if i have to attach logs, you might have to instruct me how to do so)
PS (tv works with the included program, but just displays a blue screen when i try to watch tv in GB-PVR) any thoughts?
