Hello All and a Merry Christmas,
I am wondering what everyone is using as a capture source for their cable tuner and how they would rate it from 1 to 10 (1 bad - 10 The BEST).

I reciently purchaced the WinTV-USB2 and it doesnt seem to work with GBPVR. I can get the IR remote to work just fine however it seems as though every driver for every hauppauge device is in GBPVR but this one. On a side note i was not very happy with the quality of the image of this tuners capture source. It seems to be very grainy, choppy and poor reselution. I have an old All-In-Wonder Radeon card that I have had for years that looks better than my TV downstairs but GBPVR does not support it and the this version of the all-in-wonder was made in the pre-remote control days.
I'm probably taking back the WinTV-USB2 model#1020 unless someone has a fix for it. I'm probably going to look into a newer all-in-wonder card that is compatible but i think that the remotes are all RF. I need an IR remote so my pronto and AMX system can control it. Any suggestions?

My question poll is:
What capture source are you using and how would you rate it? (1-10)
What suggestions do you all have for anyone looking for the ultimate GBPVR machine?

Thanks everyone and Merry Christmas!!!!

It works easily. If drivers are installed properly.

Did you try various mpeg-2 decoders? Did you view this on a TV, computer monitor, or?? How was it hooked up? What bitrate did you choose?
Try the drivers from http://www.shspvr.com and follow the installation procedure carefully.
Try different mpeg-2 decoders in config/playback.
Try various muxers in config/misc.
Gbpvr also has support for the remote that comes with the usb2.
You can never have enough tuners!
