HP USB Digital/Analog TV Tuner (Adding analog support) Windows 8.1

[Awol]

I've recently updated from windows 7 to windows 8.1 where i had NextPvr as a backend for xbmc.
Since I've updated I cant get NextPvr to recognize my HP analog tuner..

I have followed the instructions as best i can for adding a analog tuner, I have run the batch SoftPVR as administrator, all files extract successfully.
I have also created a AnalogDevices.xml and placed it in the root of the NPVR folder.

Under Devices i have currently listed.
ATSC HP ATSC tuner
QAM HP ATSC tuner

I am missing the Analog Devise and not sure what I'm missing or if its a windows 8.1 thing..
Thanks for any help in advance..

My AnalogDevices.xml

<Device filter="HP Analog Capture">
<Name>HP Analog Capture</Name>

I just noticed in my NPVR.log file, It says skipping 'HP Analog Capture' (not in AnalogDevices.xml)
Could some one please explain this to me, I have AnalogDevices.xml and its now in my user/public/NPVR folder..

Any reason why it might be skipping?

Can't help much, but maybe a problem with the xml formatting of the analogdevices.xml file. I compared only your entry to one of mine, and it looks OK, but did not look at the header, if any. It's probably something simple, but I don't see it. Always worked for me.

Don't replace the file, instead try adding your analogdevices.xml entry to the existing file. If that doesn't do it, then post your AnalogDevices.xml so we can check for typo's. Don't post the content of the file in your message like you've done so far though, instead click "Go Advanced" and then click the paperclip icon to attach the file.
