Hi ALL,
I just installed the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1250 on my PC running Vista 32 Home Premium and while the included WinTV works reasonable well, I wanted to give GB-PVR a try, but I'm having nothing but trouble!!
When I run PVRX2 I can't seem to get anything to work. I did run Config and managed to get it to scan for the clear QAM channels on my syetem (Verizon FiOS) and it indeed found 190 channels. However whenever I go into PVRX2 and try to click on Live TV all I get is a flash and nothing happens. This is the same thing that happened even before I was able to scan for channels. Worst yet when I go to TV Guide it freezes and I have to abort it. Granted I told it not to get any EPG but still it should not freeze!!
Am I missing something? How do I get plain old Live TV to work?
Also, I have a set-top-box hooked into the composite input of the tuner so I can get all the other channels but I'm at a loss as to how to set up GB-PVR to access that.
However my priority is to get Live TV to work so any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks,
Gerry
