Hiya decadude

the wiki may go some way to help you out?

http://www.nextpvr.com/nwiki/pmwiki.php

Particularly on configuring any aspect of analog device capture.

logs in a zip file always very warmly welcomed here that may show up some issues when configuring stuff

Hi again decadude,

let's have a look then at your logs.

zip them up and also make any constructive comment about how the wiki did not work for you.

Promise. When you have NextPVR working you will wonder why you didn't before!

cheers

Ok more progress I now have sound working but video i have nothing and all decoders are disabled for video and when i hit the drop down list box i get nothing for video rendering at the to i have been through the entire list and nothing works screen is black with sound

What MPEG2 video decoder options are available to you? If none are listed, then there is probably not an MPEG-2 decoder installed, and you'll need to add one.

Decadue, no dis-respect here, but from the speed of your posts I think you are just jumping the gun. Slow is the key. You have just stumbled on the best PVR software available for free. Read the wiki. Read the forum posts. We are all here to help you. You will get it working, totally. But it may take more than 1 hour

It is exciting though, when it works, which NextPVR does
