Hauppauge Nova T-500 Dual Tuner

Hi
Could someone please tell me how to setup my second tuner in GBPVR


regards!

I'm assuming the second tuner on the card :confused:

Add another capture device, selecting BDA Recording Plugin

Then select Hauppauge Nova-500 DVB-T (2) (your first device you setup should have been Hauppauge Nova-500 DVB-T (1) )
Setup the EPG source the same as the first tuner

You will end up with two capture devices both with the same channels on it (hopefully)

Do a seach on the forum, I have the same card. There is a post that says exactly what to add.

This works fine for me also. Another point is both tuners should be set as card 1.

Thanks guys,
I'll give it a go and report back

so when you have a dual tuner like the 500, do you get a choice which one to use when selecting Live TV?

Believe it always tries to use the capture source at the bottom of the source list that has the required channel on it :confused:

Yes, I think live TV uses "bottom to top" and recordings use "top to bottom".

With my system of the 500 and pvr150 I set up a separate channel on each tuner that is unique so I can test things out.
