Updated to latest version but now device not recognized

Certainly no personal or general attacks were intended. Just a suggestion that getting this program running requires many steps in uncharted waters for someone like me.
If someone else has an HP Analog TV Express Card and is trying to get this program going this is how the analog devices.xml file should read:

I've added this "HP Analog TV Tuner" definition to the master file, so that things are easier for future users with this device.

As mentioned though, the analog support is only really aimed at Hauppauge users. I'd love to be able to make easy for all users of all devices, and I've pretty much done this for digital tuners, but unfortunately with analog devices I need to rely on components included with the Hauppauge software (which I can't just ship with NextPVR since they're not free).

I dont think this is a big deal though, since just about everyone is using digital tuners these days, and the majority of users still doing analog are using Hauppauge devices. As you've found, there is work arounds for analog devices from other manufactures, for those prepared to do a little bit of extra work.
