Need help with Avermedia HC82 Hybrid NanoExpress notebook card

[mabloom]

I've been trying to configure my Avermedia HC82 card without success. Help with this would be greatly appreciated.

The device is reported in device manager as:
AverMedia HC82 Express-Card Hybrid Analog/ATSC

and the output from filtercheck is:

Thanks,

The analog side of this device will not work because it does not have the requisite hardware encoder. For the digital ide, add the following to your bda.ini:

Code:

[AVerTV Hybrid NanoExpress]
TUNING_TYPE=ATSC
FILTER_TUNER=AVerMedia 716x BDA ATSC Tuner
FILTER_CAPTURE=AVerMedia 716x BDA Digital Capture ATSC
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport

The following MIGHT work for QAM:

Code:

[AVerTV Hybrid NanoExpress (QAM)]
TUNING_TYPE=ATSC
TUNING_SPECIAL=2
FILTER_TUNER=AVerMedia 716x BDA ATSC Tuner
FILTER_CAPTURE=AVerMedia 716x BDA Digital Capture ATSC
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport

Thanks for the config file. I've gotten just a bit farther now, but I'm getting the message:

"Failed to locate configured BDA capture device"

What might I still be missing? How is it trying to locate the capture device?

(I double-checked and there aren't any spelling or capitalization errors)

[whurlston]

Zip and post the actual filtercheck.log file.

[mabloom]

OK, filtercheck.zip is attached.

[whurlston]

I thought there might be a space at the end of one of the filter names but there is not. Zip and post your log files after reproducing the error.

[mabloom]

OK. Here is a zip of the logs directory.

In that log your capture source has the "AVerMedia Hybrid Speedy PCI-e" device selected, which is a DVB-T, and not the device you have. You need to select either "AVerTV Hybrid NanoExpress" or "AVerTV Hybrid NanoExpress (QAM)" that Whurlston posted above.

[mabloom]

oops. sorry. I was experimenting after sending the previous message. I got the same message with either entry.

I found a process from MediaPortal running in the background a short while ago. After killing it, config seems to have gone farther.

I cleaned out the logs directory, so there should be nothing left of my previous error in the attached logs

[sub]

Can you zip and attach your bda.ini file? There is something wrong with your entry.
