I am trying to install GBPVR, without EPG. My tuner card, a Compro Videomate S350 satellite card appears in the capture source list in configuration, but when I go to the tuning assistant to set up my channels, my card does not appear and I can proceed no further. Is there a way around this problem or am I attempting the impossible?

You dont need to use the tuning assistant. Its an entirely separate utility that is used to help analog card owners understand what frequencies their broadcasters are transmitting on. This utility does nothing. It changes no GB-PVR settings, and 99% of users have never run it.

What you need to do is config app and create a capture source, selecting the digital recording plugin, and your card and satellite. Set the EPG Source to the 'DVB EPG' option, then hit the 'map the digital channels to epg channels' button to begin the scan.

Although I have the same card and as yet it doesn't scan for channels correctly.
Assuming you are pointing at 28.2East then you can ask and some nice person will attach their scan.cache file that can be used to map channels.

Without an EPG you will find life difficult. You need some channels setup to be able to map the satellite channels to.
