Old chestnut - MSI Mega Sky USB mini

[MikeT]

Hello,

I'm unfortunate enough to own the above DVB-T stick and want to use it through GB-PVR which looks far more capable than the pee-poor excuse of bundled software Presto PVR.

But, like others before, I'm having problems getting GBPVR to work with it. I've read all I can on this forum regarding this tuner and tried all the suggestions but am getting nowhere fast and wasting time.

Basically, I know the tuner is working and reception is good as I get over 60 channels using Presto software.

I can (sometimes) get a successful channel scan and EPG using GBPVR config but when I try to view LiveTV it comes up with No Signal - check aerial strength.

As I say, GBPVR looks like the sort of software I'd enjoy using but I've lost confidence in it now and even if I can get it working in LiveTV I'm a bit miffed why it can only detect 57 channels.

Can anyone solve this problem for me or shall I give up?

p.s. I forgot to add, scanning for EPG data after scanning for channels invariably results in the program crashing.

And after reading a bit more I find some patches and, well, it's actually working!
Sorry.

Now to find out if my usb stick's remote control is supported.....
