I think the difference is occuring in the few lines I've highlighted.

Normally when you hook up a BDA graph, the demultiplexer has five pins, with pin "2" being video, pin "3" being audio and pin "4" being the PSI info. Unfortunately on your setup the pin numbers are all one higher than they should be (3,4,5 instead of 2,3,4). I'm not sure why this has happened, but I do remember one other user having this year or so ago, but I cant for the life of me remember what they did to fix it.

Have you noticed that my drivers are the latest from the Hauppauge Site.
Could it be the newest drivers have the pin numbers described differently?

I donwloaded the latest drivers as I thought they would be more stable than previous ones and fix a sound issue I was having.

No, I dont think thats the case. Your log also shows it with the Twinhan card.

I keep thinking it was psisdecd.dll or something like that which is responsible for creating the pins. I could be wrong though.

Went to the microsoft update site and installed the update rollup for MCE 2005.

During this the version of the file psisdecd.dll was changed. Tuning now seems to work.

Hopefully the update wont have broken anything else.

Great.
