I have MC13 installed on an AMD64 machine with Vista Ultimate 64 and a TV card Haupauge WinTV PVR PCI II
When I go to Devices and Drives\Television, then I can not scan for TV channels and when I open Configuration, MC13 finds my TV card but when I go to setting and I try to open configure, then MC 13 hangs or crasches. What could be the problem.
I want to view television with MC because it suits me better than windows MC

That is strange. I have an identical device in my computer. It works. I wonder if it has anything to do with Vista Ultimate 64. Please attach a log file here, or email it to me. I am yaobing at jriver dot com

Yaobing, you have another mail with the exaktly same issue

Thanks for the logs.
There are two issues, 1) your device failed to initialize for some reason; 2) MC crashed because of that.
I fixed the crash. But the cause of device failure have to be diagnosed separately. You have two different devices.
For the Hauppauge device, there was a failure to load "Hauppauge Color Format Converter 2".
auwema, is your device a "Hauppauge WinTV PVR 150" or "Hauppauge WinTV PVR 250" or something else? Check your system32 folder and see if you can find a file named hcwCCnv2.ax. If you can find it, try issuing the following command to register it:
regsvr32 "C:\Windows\system32\hcwCCnv2.ax"
Note that the above is based on XP. For Vista, the folder name may be different, and further more, you must enter the command on a command prompt that is started using an Administrator privilege.
Lasse_Lus, unfortunately I have not found a clue from your log about your specific device.

Yaobing,
The problem stays the same. I have a WinTV PVR PCI II 150 (25xxx) I located the file hcwCCnv2.ax in the system32 directory and added it to the regestry.
Started MC again and it crasches again. "Failed to add WinTV Color Format Converter 2 to graph hr=0x80040154"
