HP Media Center PC 864N

[meccano]

I was given this older PC and am able to successfully capture video
via MS Media Center into .dvr-ms files.

My question is - can I use GBPVR with this hardware? According to
the label on the PC case it has a "hardware encoder" but I can't figure
out what model this might be. I came across a reference to:

Television
TV tuner card (supports Media Center MS-DVR, NTSC format and stereo sound, does not support HDTV)(HAUPPAGE M922)

but no model M922 appears under the GBPVR configuration.

Apart from opening the case, is there a way to figure out the capture hardware model?

Unfortunately, all it says under Device Manager is "Legacy Video Capture Devices".

are you using npvr or gbvr?
in npvr you need to install the mux filter for analog to show up..[see http://forums.gbpvr.com//showthread.php?...EAD!!!!**] scroll down to analog section..
[that's an analog only card]

in gbpvr, pick the generic blackbird device, or click the 'only show devices deected in this machine' and select from that list..

Fantastic, that did the trick - GBPVR 1.4.7 is now working. Thanks very much for your assistance.
