How to get TV Walker Ultra works?

[jksmurf]

yes. I read it before but still can't figure out how to setup the frequency. Or any registry settings related to it? I am thinking whether the original Lifeview program conflicts with GBPVR or not. If yes, may be I need to uninstall the Lifeview one.

Hmmm ... well, as I noted above, you shouldn't actually need to set up the frequency any more (my system doesn't even have this key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\TV System Services\TVAutoTune\

any more). Sub describes this in THIS post

i.e. For analog devices, there usually aren'tany frequency settings stored anywhere. Instead GB-PVR does everything using channel numbers, and Microsoft takes care of the frequencies behind the scenes in Directshow.

However you could try to add it manually as described in that same post as a TEST i.e.

EITHER

(a) "you can enter a frequency in the capture source channel list instead of a channel number. For example, if you wanted a channel at 108MHz you would enter 108000000."

OR (b) Define this in the REGISTRY

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\TV System Services\TVAutoTune\TSXX-Y

where XX = Country Code (e.g. 0 for US, 44 for UK and Y=0 for Broadcast and 1 for Cable). (852 for Hong Kong).

Note that as per THIS post sub does not agree with Channel overrides as per (b).

For the frequencies themselves, refer the above refeences in Chinese or English OR (I removed the Spreadsheet from this post) but it is also copied here: http://www.tvxb.com/country/Hong%20Kong/...g-V1.0.zip

I had a problem with the orig. lifeveiw program causing a crash, but unless you are getting that you should at least see SOMETHING, and you need the mux, so suggest you leave it in.

Hope this help.
BTW, any other TV card/box recommended?

Hauppauge PVR-150 or PVR-500 Dual (Analaog) Tuner. They are simple, easy and works with GBPVR out of the box. There is a USB2? equivalent of that card, you'll have to search the forums and wiki for others, there are so many possibilities, but these two Hauppauge cards are solid, if not spectacular performers, with few hassles.
