All,
I have searched and searched for an answer to this and have scanned my channels every way imaginable . I have a regular ( no cable Box) cable from TWC . I have the cable coming into the house and connected to a splitter. This feeds my cable modem and then to a 2 year old magnavox TV and my Hauppauge 1196 WinTV-HVR-1250 PCI-E x1 TV Tuner 1196. The televsion has several more channels than the Haupage tuner, whether it is running windows media Center on windows 7 pro or NVPR 3.29 on same O.S. it completely skips ( not listed even as encrypted) the channels I am interested like 34 - 65. food, hist, halmrk etc. The Tv gets these channels without a box. PCI Tuner does not. The cables are new. my internet connection is as fast as ever. Why wont the Haupage on NPVR or MC even look at those channels? I even went as far to select all the channels that were encrypted and tried them out one by one (184) to end up back at 41.

Dell Optiplex 780 with intel core 2 Duo
Windows 7 Pro X64
8GB ram

If anyone can shed some light on this I would be appreciative.

Assuming you have a splitter at the TV/computer to provide a signal to the TV and the computer, try connecting the splitter input cable to just the computer (no splitter) and see if that helps. TVs have better tuners than computer cards, so it may be a signal strength issue. If you can get the channels without the splitter, then you'll need to look into an amplifier, or amplified splitter. Or, connect the computer to the first splitter and the modem and TV to the second.

This assumes you are getting some channels in NPVR and they are analog, and thus have the driver and additional analog software installed.

If you installed the WinTV software that came with the tuner card, then you have everything installed. Can you get some/all channels in WinTV?

If you can receive "some" channels, then you have everything installed. See the sticky at the top of the forum for the analog recording requirements.

mikeh49,

I located my Wintv7 and downloaded and installed the latest version with the CD in the drive. All went well and i now have all my channels in WinTV! However , I can not get NPVR to find them. I reran the NPVR setup exe file and then scanned again. it does not find them. You were correct that the missing ones are Analog. Should i look for a way to completely remove all of NPVR and start over? or am i scanning wrong? or am i Just not scanning right ?
Thanks,
Johng1990

You need to setup the Analog channels on the Analog tuner now that WinTV is installed.
