KWorld PlusTV HD PCI 120 support?

[dshoup]

Any chance GB-PVR could support the ATSC tuner on the KWorld PlusTV HD PCI 120 (model number VS-ATSC120). This has one coax input that can tune NTSC or ATSC. I'd like to use the ATSC in GBPVR. I see 2 chips on the card that have something potentially useful written on them. One is Conexant CX23880-19 the other is Samsung C645 S5H1409X01-T0. There is a third chip that is covered by a shinny metal cover (heat sink??? looks more like a chromed piece...). I tried setting it up as a KWorld ATSC 110, but that did not work (accepts it, and shows it in the recording status window of the system tray icon, but won't use it...just acts like there is no other tuner besides my Hauppauge). I've attached the log file from the FilterCHeck utility. Any suggestions or am I out of luck?

Try adding the following. Let me know if it works or not.


[KWorld PlusTV HD PCI 120]
TUNING_TYPE=ATSC
FILTER_TUNER=Conexant 2388x BDA Tuner/Demod
FILTER_CAPTURE=Conexant 2388x AVStream TS Capture
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport

I added the above code to the direct.ini file (I assume this was the correct spot for the info). I then selected the new option in the setup program using the direct record plugin. When I did this, I got the message "The drivers for the device you have configured do not seem to be installed. Are you sure you want to save these current settings?" I selected yes and finished setting up the EPG and such and closed the config program. When I then tried to view live TV, I got the message "No tuners are available to watch the requested channel..." The KWorld card is working fine with its own software, so I assume the drivers are fine, we just have not told GBPVR how to access them. Any suggestions?

You're supposed to add it to the bda.ini file, and when you create your capture source, set the recording source to the 'BDA Recording Plugin'.

Doh! Sorry. Putting the text in the BDA file makes everything work great. Thanks for your help!

Sub, can you please help me with a similar problem but with the Kworld plusTV HD Stick. I started a thread here. http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=31481

analog side of this works fine with wdm software recorder on wiki..
since only 1 coax input, can only use 1 'tuner' at a time, but svideo in and either tuner can be used same time..
