PVR250 TvTuner Filter Not Found

[rjaeger1]

Hi,

I thought I had all of my problems fixed but my PVR250 is acting up now. When I try to record or watch tv with the PVR250, it does not work. The logs say that GBPVR failed to find the tvtuner filter. Unfortunately I have no idea how to fix that.

I have verified that the order of the capture devices is correct and that the drivers are installed (using the latest on the hauppauge website). I have cleared all of the drivers in my system and reinstalled them with no luck. I also ran the re-register filters.bat with no luck.

I have zipped and attached all logs including the filtercheck log too.

Thanks for your time and help.

Important information:
GBPVR 1.2.13
Tuners: PVR150MCE (#2 analog), PVR250 (#1 analog), HVR1600 (#1 digital)

What capture sources do you have setup on that machine, and what are device numbers you've set in each of these?

Hi sub,

the capture sources and device numbers are as follows:
PVR250 - analog capture source (Device #1)
PVR150MCE - analog capture source (Device #2)
HVR1600 - digital (qam) capture source (Device #1)

Have you tried swapping the device numbers on the PVR150/250?

I just tried it and the recording service goes to 100% and pvrx2 locks up when I try live tv.

Just to give you some background on my system before:
I had 2 PVR150 and 1 PVR250 in this order: PVR250, PVR150MCE, PVR150 (Devices 1,2,3).

Now I replaced the PVR150 (same PCI slot) with the HVR1600. Wouldn't the device numbers on the PVR250 and PVR150MCE stay 1 and 2, respectively?

I didnt notice it when I had my first look at the filtercheck.log. There is something wrong with the TvTuner on one of the devices. It has no pins. Something must have gone wrong with the driver install. Looks like you'll have to uninstall and reinstall them.

(also put those device numbers back to where you had them)

I tried reinstalling the driver several times and I'm getting the same thing each time (no pins). It seems there is something left over that hcwclear.exe isn't getting to. I hope I don't have to reinstall windows to get this going again.

Sorry, I'm not sure what you'd have to do to resolve that.

I appreciate your help and speed of your responses. I'll keep trying and post back here when I resolve the problem. Thanks.
