Pinnacle PCTV Rave Tuner not detected by MediaCenter
Hello.
The TV tuner of my card Pinnacle PCTV Rave is not detected by Windows Vista Media Center (both on Beta 2 and on Pre-RC1, both with Windows Update drivers and with drivers provided with the card). How could I have this tuner detected by Media Center ? Thanks Patrick Schevenels |

I doublt that you received Vista drivers for you card with the card they are
most likely Windows XP drivers. Are you saying that when you ran WinUpdate while running Vista that found new drivers for you and you installed them? Have you checked the Pinnacle WebSite for Vista drivers for your card since they may have some that have not yet been qualified by MS? "Schevenels Patrick" wrote in message ... Hello.

Yes, the drivers given with the card are for Windows XP.
On Windows Vista, it installs drivers from Windows Update by default but the tuner is not detected. On Pinnacle website, there's no driver for Windows Vista. "JW" wrote in message ...

In order for a tuner card to be supported by Media Center it must support
DX9 rendering and it must have a hardware encoder chip on board with MCE (BDA) drivers. Assording to the following link your card does not have theses features and Pinnalce makes no claim that it works with MCE. http://www.pinnaclesys.com/PublicSit...Specifications A "Schevenels Patrick" wrote in message ...
