New PVR-150 DOA

Crap I spoke too soon. Went to watch a recorded show and all I had was snow. Seems as though with only one PVR-150, I can tune / watch / record TV but with two PVR-150s, I get snow on all channels.

Also noticed that GBPVR doesn't display two distinct PVR-150s when I run config to set up the two cards as capture #1 and capture #2. Could this be part of it. My Windows hardware manager shows two cards as dev 7 and 8 on the PCI bus.

It works OK still with one card.

It'll only list each card type once when you tick the 'only show devices detected in this machine' checkbox. This is the normal behaviour.

It's taken nearly a week but I finally have two tuners functioning in my PC. The last thing I had to do was to physically have them installed in the PC and uninstall them both in GBPVR and then in Windows hardware manager then power off and on and let Windows find 'new hardware'.

After that, I re-config the two tuners in GBPVR and they're both now working.

Thanks to you folks here at GBPVR that gave me some ideas of what to do and thanks to many others and other resources that helped too.
