S-Video input...
I have an AverTV 1500 MCE tuner card, and I'm trying to use the S-video input
for my PS2. I see from other questions on here that MCE makes it terribly difficult to switch inputs, and that it runs a 2-3 second delay, but I cannot even install the video software that came with the card, because shortly after I run the setup, it tells me that "Windows Media Center Edition does not require this software, aborting installation now.". Does anyone know of a way to bypass this, or am I pretty much out of luck? I tried running it in different compatibilty modes in some vain hope of it going through, but as I figured, it wouldn't work. |

S-Video input...
You need to connect your MCE remote and its IR blaster then configure MCE
for TV input using S-Video. You then need to pretent to run a TV program and have the PS2 S-Video input connected instead of that from a TV STB. If you are not going to use it to watch TV then do not install the MCE software and drivers for the card but install Hauppauge WinTV2K software from the Hauppauge Website under XP and use it and not MCE it will confiugre much easier for you and there will be no delays. On my Vista system I can use my Hauppauge 150 under MC with its antenna connection or WinTV2K under Vista. "gvii" wrote in message ...
