Having trouble setting up 2nd DVB-T card.
My current system consists of GB-PVR 1.15 using Pinnacle DVB-T and all works just great (so why not leave it that way says the wife! )
but I am trying to add a second DVB-t card, this one being a Peak DVB-T Digital TV Hybrid PCI which incorporates DVB / Analogue / FM tuners.
My first steps were the normal steps - Config/Capture Sources/Add/Select source as BDA go into settings
At this point I usualy use the "Only show detected devices" however I was surprised to see a whole load of devices :confused: as follows -
Lifeview flyDVB-T
Pinnacle (my old card)
Kworld DVB-t
Ads Tech Cardbus DVB-t
Medion 880 BDA
Asus MyCinema
Confused I thought I would go down the list trying each until I gained success but non of them will work. All available options produce the same result, ie save and return to edit source and click mapp digital channels where I am presented with the "GB-PVR was unable to start the BDA device..."
Digging around the wiki I ventured into creating your own card bda.ini.
Using graphedit I can see receiver components
Pinnacle RoyalTS Capture
713x BDA Digital Capture
and source filters
Pinnacle RoyalTS Tuner
713x BDA DVB-T Tuner
so I created my new bda entry as -
[713x BDA DVBT]
TUNING_TYPE=DVB-T
FILTER_TUNER=713x BDA DVBT Tuner
FILTER_CAPTURE=713x BDA Digital Capture
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
But this is still producing the same response.
Any ideas?
Thanks ( and sorry for long message :o )
