ATI Theatre Pro 550 TV Tuner not Detected! Why?
After installing Windows Vista Home Premium Edition for my PC, my ATI Theatre
Pro 550 TV Tuner isn't being detected by the Windows Media Centre. I even installed the latest driver for Vista from ATI's website for it which is only 2 weeks old and it still won't detect it. When I try to run the Catalyst Update Manager when it tries to run itself, there is an error saying that its "side-by-side configuration is incorrect, please see the application event log for more detail." Can anyone tell me how to get my Tuner working again it would be much appreciated. |

Did you ever get an anwer on this? I have a machine with this card and a
Hauppauge usb tuner and can only get the Hauppauge to record anything. It doesn't seem to recognize the other tuner at all. "travman" wrote in message ...

The closest thing that I have come to is that Windows Media Center is the
only thing that doesn't detect it. I downloaded PowerCinema 5 and the tuner works perfectly fine with that program so I'm assuming this is a problem on Microsoft's end and unfortunately time will have pass before anything is resolved.

Well, I will call the manufacturer of my PC tomorrow to see if they know
anything about this. Good thing my Hauppauge works or I would be a lot more peeved than I am. Did you contact ATI about this? "travman" wrote in message ...

Yes they said that it's probably a driver issue with Windows Vista so not
much we can do. "Lynne" wrote: Well, I will call the manufacturer of my PC tomorrow to see if they know anything about this. Good thing my Hauppauge works or I would be a lot more peeved than I am.

ATI Theatre Pro 550 TV Tuner not Detected! Why?
I had slightly different but equally frustrating problem with my DVICO Fusion
HDTV Plus card. I down loaded the latest drivers (supposedly VISTA compatible) but VISTA could not find them. In the end I had save the drivers on my HDD and manually install the drivers by telling Vista exactly where to look for them. This did the trick for me. Finally, I had to set up the TV Tuner card in Media Centre to get it to work. I hope this will prove usefull to you! Best of luck!

Okay but there is one thing that doesn't make sense. My tuner is detected by
the software Power Cinema so that can detect the drivers perfectly fine. How would I go about manually telling Windows Media Center where to look for the drivers?

travman, I am curious about this. My tuner card isn't even detected by
PowerCinema. How does your tuner show up in device manager? Mine is in Sound, video and game controllers and says ATI Unified AVStream Driver. My external tuner says Hauppauge WinTV PVR2USB2 Encoder. So I wonder if the ATI is even showing up properly. The Hauppauge is the only tuner working. "travman" wrote in message ... Okay but there is one thing that doesn't make sense.

I have the ATI Unified AVStream Driver appearing but thats it. So I don't
understand exactly why yours is not being detected. Mine is detected by PowerCinema, but not Windows Media Center which makes no sense and I have the latest drivers directly off of AMD's website so I don't understand. I do know though Microsoft is having lots of tuner compatability issues with Windows Media Center. "Lynne" wrote: travman, I am curious about this. My tuner card isn't even detected by PowerCinema.

Well, that is pretty danged weird. Did you upgrade your operating system to
Vista? Mine is a brand new machine (and I'm wondering if they did such a good job on quality control). I had to download a trial version of the PowerCinema software as what was provided with my PC wouldn't install because it was for XP. Anyway, doesn't work in either program. I have a tech support request in to my manufacturer so will see what happens. I have installed the latest driver also and installed some Vista codecs but still no joy. Good thing I have that Hauppauge. "travman" wrote in message ... I have the ATI Unified AVStream Driver appearing but thats it. So I don't understand exactly why yours is not being detected.
