Hey guys. I just got my Hauppauge 500 today and put it in my system. However, the card I bought was used and didn't include the cd with the drivers or anything.
I went to Hauppauge's website and went to the PVR-500 support site and downloaded drivers... but it doesn't seem to have any drivers for the 500, just the 150.
Also... when I go to GBPVR and go to config... what do I choose? I go to capture sources and click Add.
There is a "Recording Source" "EPG Source" and "Channel Changer"
For now, I won't be using a channel changer. However. I am curious about the other 2. When I click settings for Recording Source I'm given a list of cards... but when I click the box that says to only view tuners in my system... it tells me no cards are found.
Also, I'm clueless to the EPG. I'm assuming there's just some file I need to grab so I can get all the programming information and set up my channels and what not.
Sorry that these questions are so basic, but I'm just a newb without any documentation to go on. The fact I opened my PC case and got this blasted card into a PCI slot was an accomplishment for me!
