Just got the Blackgold BGT3620 Analog/SD/HD card for use in the UK and having problems configuring it in NPVR.
1. DVB-T SD works fine out of the box
2. Analog input is found if I (correctly?) add this to the analogdevices.xml file.
<Device filter="7231 BDA Analog Capture">
<Name>Blackgold BGT3620</Name>
<Type>SOFT_ENCODE</Type>
</Device>
3. Can't find any HD channels in scanning though.
Device appears installed correctly in device manager as a "BlackGold DVB-T2/T/C Device (IR)" and using latest 8.1.0.0 drivers.
I can find HD channels fine on a Freeview HD STB connected to same aerial fly lead (at 570000kHz). I've also tried ScanChannelsBDA_UK.exe whick can lock (a good signal) at this frequency but does not find any channels (but I'm guessing it is not capable of identifying DVB-T2 channels).
I believe all DVB-T2 channels are seen as DVB-T with these cards so no separate device is required. However the devices found in NPVR are:
Analog 7231 BDA Analog capture
DVB-T 7231 BDA DVBT Tuner
DVB-T 7231 BDA DVBT Tuner (#2)
DVB-C 7231 BDA DVBC Tuner
DVB-C 7231 BDA DVBC Tuner (#2)
DVB-T 7231 BDA DVBC Tuner (MCE)
DVB-T 7231 BDA DVBC Tuner (MCE) (#2)
Only the first 2 DVB-T devices find any digital channels, no idea what the MCE ones are for.
Anybody any ideas please, I think at least one person on these forums has this card working with HD channels.
Thanks
