Hauppauge drivers for TV card
« on: March 25, 2004, 05:55:41 am »

Why is there such a big difference between MC and http://www.iulabs.com/iuvcr/index.shtml or http://www.digtv.ws/ ?


I would first recomend adding a faq entery to mantian their BT878 drivers as well as the ones found on sourceforge.

I encountered some problems using MC in setting chanels - the chanel number didn't go above a certiain number.
But the worse problem was during recording. I could barely record to xvid, which iuVCR offers easy. sound didn't sync.
and there are less functions.

In fact I haven't used MC for TV lately.
Now I try to set it up with the source forge wdms, which work fine with 4 other programs.
In the country there are no options, so I get stock, and have to kill the MC task.

why? the free wdms give better quality then the Hauppauge ones.

Why don't you talk to Hauppauge about it?

I understand that is took some effort for you to code in the tv fearutes to MJ.  and having the same tagging features to my videos, would be great.
But.
I do think that a lot has already been accomplished in that field with existing software, like showshifter. and I would like to see the same features on MC. like your signature states, no need to make the same mistake others did.

As to the Hauppauge drivers - please try these drivers http://btwincap.sourceforge.net/
their quality is much better. Better frequency setting, radio support.
after you'll try them I think that you will agree with me that there is no need to have the original drivers.
