I strongly suspect that MC can tell when your blog has been opened and technical issues are being discussed because since I sent my first comment on this latest thread, it has been working fine.
To tunes0710, I say thanks, and should the problem happen again, I shall try your suggestion (actually, I have deleted the device and re-installed it again from Device Manager and at the time, this did not help). Trying a different slot I agree would be a good idea. I’ve not tried DVB Dream but at $49, I’d prefer to get MC working!
To Yaobing, thanks again for your intervention. Yes, I can watch that channel but, of course, all seems to be working (at the moment!). As to the ‘crash’, ‘hang’ issue, I can only go on what Windows tells me and that was a ‘crash’. I also found it significant that the Status dialogue would say that both tuners were showing ‘Error’. Re-starting Windows would solve this. Why this has now stopped, goodness only knows! Fingers crossed.
I’m reluctant to touch anything just now, as all seems fine. One thing I will say though, is that since the new card, I am not capturing anywhere near as many channels (including some of the ‘core’ HD channels) but I keep forgetting to do a scan later in the evening when some channels come on line. I reserve judgement on that one until I can remember to get round to it!
Thanks again folks.
Tim
