I started out with a 0.91.12 installation and a WinTV-PVR-150 (retail) tuner card. My GB-pvr has been working fine for about three weeks.
Wanting to record and watch multiple programs at one time, I aquired a WinTV-PVR-500MCE. I installed the card and connected a second antenna connection to it. The first card works fine, but no matter what I do, I can't seem to get the second card to work.
The 150 is installed in PCI slot 0. I have it configured as Capture Source "PVR150", Hauppauge PVR 150 driver, Capture Device #1. It seems to be working fine.
The trouble starts when I try to configure the 500. The 500 MCE is installed in PCI slot 3. My sound card is in PCI slot 2. I have tried to configure it as "PVR500-A" and "PVR500-B" using the Hauppauge 500 driver and Capture devices #2 through 6. I couldn't get it to record anything. Next I tried configuring it using the Hauppauge 150 and 150 MCE drivers and it still doesn't work.
When that didn't work, I saved my original installation and uninstalled GB-pvr. Wanting to use my original database, I installed a fresh installation of 0.91.12, and went through the same process. I still can't get the PVR to recognize the 500.
What am I missing here guys?
