Windows 2008 beta3 problem

[sub]

The names in the BDA.ini section need to match those shown when you run filtercheck.exe from the GBPVR directory.

Correction.. I'm want to start testing with hypervisor, not running 64bit yet. Current install is 32bit.

Would it make a possible difference running 64bit ? Terratec drivers are available :-)

I dont know. You know a lot more about Windows 2008 then me.

[snoebel]

yes ok, but gbpvr runs fine with 64bit ? (Vista or XP)

[sub]

Yes, there are people running GB-PVR on 64bit versions of both Vista and XP.

I got GBPVR running on Windows Server 2008 standard.
First enable Desktop Experience then copy the following AX files from a Vista installation (windows/system32) to the system32 directory on W2K8.
Cut and paste the commands in a batch file to register them.

regsvr32 /s bdaplgin.ax
regsvr32 /s kstvtune.ax
regsvr32 /s ksxbar.ax
regsvr32 /s Mpeg2Data.ax
regsvr32 /s mpg2splt.ax
regsvr32 /s MSDvbNP.ax
regsvr32 /s MSNP.ax
regsvr32 /s psisrndr.ax
regsvr32 /s VBICodec.ax
regsvr32 /s vbisurf.ax
regsvr32 /s WSTPager.ax

Fantastic, just one question..... 32bit or 64bit ?

(I just upgraded to 64bit to get hypervisor running)

Got Vista on my workstation, but still 32bit.. guess those files are not the same.

[snoebel]

ok.. still not running.. you won't believe how many hours I did put into this.

Tried the ax files, was a nightmare with 64 bit.. after a while I found out that Bill puts his 32bits dll's and ax files into syswow64 and his 64bits dll's and ax files into system32.
Do a google on dll and 64bits :-(

But ok, no luck with 64bit.. so back to a fresh install 2008.
ax files ok now, used them from my Vista ultimate install.

no errors with missing multiplezers or anything..

But.. next problem :

made this bda.ini :

[TerraTec Cinergy C PCI DVB-C]
TUNING_TYPE=DVB-C
FILTER_TUNER=Cinergy C PCI Digital Tuner
FILTER_CAPTURE=Cinergy C PCI Digital Capture
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport

Getting this result back from filtercheck :
21:48:50.939 INFO Checking KSCATEGORY_BDA_NETWORK_TUNER filters
21:48:50.939 INFO found: Cinergy C PCI Digital Tuner
21:48:50.970 INFO - (input) Input0

21:48:50.970 INFO Checking KSCATEGORY_BDA_RECEIVER_COMPONENT filters
21:48:50.970 INFO found: Cinergy C PCI Digital Capture
21:48:50.970 INFO - (output) MPEG2 Transport

card seems ok, drivers loaded, shows up in config just fine.

But when I try to map channels to EPG, I'm getting an error saying :
GB-PVR was unable to start the BDA device you have configured. Check the device is configured properly, and not already in use.

attached my logs

It looks like the BDA tuning spaces are not present on you machine. I'm not sure what you'd have to do to rectify that. They're normally present on all XP/Vista machines.

@ OrakelJos, any idea ?

Looking at your name.. Dutch ?
