I guess there is always the crude way!:

Usual way with things like this and logs is to zip 'em up to post.

It looks like the driver is reporting 3010ix card instead of 7010x card.

If you add this to BDA.INI (doesn't matter where, but I guess below the existing 3010ix one would be a good place. Config should spot it with "only show detected devices" ticked.

Lets us know how you get on and it if works fine, then hopefully sub will pick it up to add to the master list.

Code:

[Pinnacle PCTV 7010iX-DVB-S section]
TUNING_TYPE=DVB-S
FILTER_TUNER=Pinnacle PCTV 3010iX BDA DVBS Tuner
FILTER_CAPTURE=Pinnacle PCTV 3010iX BDA Digital Capture DVBS
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport

Yep, that seems to work fine. Cheers martint123.

I haven't got time to fiddle about with it tonight, but now that I see how it works, it shouldn't be too much trouble to update the entries to have both the DVB-T and DVB-S tuners show up as 7010s rather than 3010s.

Yup - works fine for me as well, and I only need DVB-S. Thanks a lot for this Martin. I now need to go and configure my whole system and get my NMT working with it. I may be gone some time!

It takes considerably less time to get working than reading the docs!
