Hi All
A little back ground to the issues Im having and what I have worked out from reading the posts here, and watching videos.
Background info
My main system runs windows 7 Media Center, I have a older Hauppauge Tv tunner that records my TV through the composite, I live in an area where we don't have over the air frequencies, So i use a Cable TV set box that MCE with the use of the IR blaster changes the channels. works great except that my TV tuner card only works in a system with less then 4 Gigs, and Microsoft will be shutting down the service in 2020.
So now Im building a a new system here are the specs, I7 windows 10, hauppauge hd-pvr 1212, (no IR blaster) using the windows MCE IR blaster, and cable Box Im using the front Composite on the hauppauge hd-pvr 1212 that goes to the cable box, the Ir blaster on the cablebox goes back the MCE IR blaster.
After lots of hrs and hrs and a few subscriptions (schedule direct) I got a picture to show up on live video with audio, one of the things i did was add the below lines into AnalogDevices.XML as i thought you need this for Analog (but nope)
<Device filter="Hauppauge HD PVR Capture Device">
<Name>Hauppauge HD PVR Capture Device</Name>
<Type>HARD_ENCODE</Type>
<FilterEncoder>Hauppauge HD PVR Capture Device</FilterEncoder>
</Device>
under devices in the settings i have HDPVR Hauppauge HD PVR and Analog Hauppauge HD PVR Capture Device I set up the Analog Hauppage HD PVR Capture Device, and nothing showed under live TV, I then went to use HDPVR Hauppauge and in worked.
This is were Im not sure why the IR blaster does not change the channels
In my devices tab i go to the import channel list tab import source is composite Video and RCA front and import EPG Source Schedules Direct, Channel Changer is blank.
Im not sure what to do next to get the IR blaster to change channels, the remote does work with going from live video and showing the guide. i hope there is enough info for someone to help me out.
thanks...
