Multiple Colossus cards on the same machine

[slappy2]

:confused:Situation: Running 2 Colossus on the same machine.
in settings/devices: the first card is activated and showing the present status
the second card is activated but is not showing the present status.

Live tv : Unable to find available card when selecting one of the applicable channel.

Can you zip and attach your npvr.db3 file?

[slappy2]

Here it is.
Thanks

I can only see one Colossus listed.

Can you visit the Settings -> Devices screen, then post the npvr.log?

[slappy2]

I can see both crossbar in the log but the second device still have the "present" status to NO in the devices.

See if this patch helps.

it is showing as "present" now. Thanks for your great support.

No i have to different stb to control via ir. My Colossus ir can control only one since hauppauge only rescognise the first pci card.
my commandir served me well under linux with my old hdpvr but i dont know how to link it to npvr. They release drivers and utility for windows and it work under command but when i try to put in npvr argument: commandir_send -d450 -e1 {channel}" it doesn't work. I created a separate batch files for individual buttons but i dont know how to link all this with npvr.

My usb-uirt is no longer working since the last release of irserver.

What do you suggest ?

Sorry, I dont really have any advice on that front. If you can find an executable that does what you want though, then NPVR should be able to run it.

Possibly a dumb question, but will npvr allow me to record analog direct to H.264 using a Colossus ?

Thanks

Yes, you feed it a composite/svideo/component analog video signal (or HDMI digital signal) and it'll output a H.264+AAC transport stream.
