Just can't get any audio out of this device in NPVR.
Tried different he-aac decoders but nothing seems to work. The TVCenter app that came with the 290e does produce audio. Anyone got any ideas? Thanks

Logs attached. I used the monogram decoder but have tried ffdshow and the microsoft dtv decoder which is the one 7MC uses I think.
Info for other NPVR'ers thinking of getting one. Comes with the usual comedy aerial, a short (and I do mean short ~10") usb extension, a standard Coax to mini Coax converter and little remote. Sensitivity seems good, as good as any other dvb-t device I've seen, dvb-t2 signal is weaker but still quite good considering I'm in a fringe reception area and only have a standard aerial setup. Of course YMMV as UHF reception be one of the dark arts. The included software is as you might expect is a bit pants. Bit pricey but mine was a gift  , I dropped a few 50lb hints recently.

They may have changed something about the DVB-T2 broadcasts since the test I had a few months ago. Quote: but have tried ffdshow and the microsoft dtv decoder which is the one 7MC uses I think.These wont work. The Microsoft decoder will only do MPEG1 Layer II audio in 3rd party apps (MSDN says it's limited due to license restrictions). I've not seen a version of the ffshow decoder that can do HE-AAC v2. The only other decoder that does work is the ArcSoft Audio Decoder HD (comes with WinTV7).

I'm not getting audio with the monogram decoder, but I do get audio with the ArcSoft decoder. I couldnt tell you why though. Its likely there is something about the broadcaster's encoding that isnt liked by the Monogram decoder. The HE-AAC that is broadcast here in NZ works fine with the Monogram decoder.
