Msi vox usb 2.0 remote/sound problems

please help! i just purchased a new MSI VOX USB 2.0 external tv tuner and i'm having lots of problems...
1. the dial on the side of the box that is supposed to turn the tuner on/off or change channels doesn't do a thing.
2. the remote doesn't work at all
3. sound - i'm using this on a notebook computer and i don't have a line in port. i assume i would be able to just go through the microphone port but it is not so. in the options under properties>device, i can only choose the audio input source to line in (which i don't have) or cd audio (?). it doesn't even work if i set my computer recording settings to 'microphone'... even though i CAN record the microphone input in a sound recording program, i can't hear in in real-time... right now the only way i can hear the TV is to connect the audio cable through my desktop's line in! i can't even hook my speakers directly into the box because the pin hole is too small to fit a normal audio jack...
is my only solution to buy some sort of audio pin converter so i can hook my speakers/headphones directly into the box??
i've downloaded the newest drivers and they don't help at all with any of my problems.
i'm using a notebook computer with windows xp...
please help! thanks very very much!!

I had/have the same problem, with a Dell Laptop running windows XP.
my first solution was to buy a male-male audio connector and hook it directly to my speakers, but having to switch from that and my computer wasn't much fun, I found another work around.
I bought snapstream's beyond TV, and everything has worked well, and I like the snapstream software better than the default software, anyway. The only problem is that you can't use the composite or S-video inputs, as far as I can tell. (and having to spend $50 on another piece of software, but use the trial version first to make sure it works)

Hi dear Dr Stu.
I can not change my operating system beacuse I need run SQL Server 2000 enterprise edition and some software that just run over system server editions, I thing that will be run beacause in the product features show "Windows 98/Me/2000/XP".
Intervideo said that the MSI VOX USB 2.0 is not listed into the support cards.
Do you have someting idea?, the problem is that the MSI Box has been a price over that this is.

Play video games with MSI VOX USB?

Hi,
I am interested in getting the MSI VOX USB 2.0 External TV Box and I am just wondering if I can play video games such as Playstation 2 with my laptop using this tv tuner. I heard some tv tuners have the "delay" make them useless to play video games. Does MSI VOX USB have this "dealy", and how is the the picture quality while playing video game with this tv tuner?
Thanks in advance.
Jim

Hiya,
I dont really understand the VoxBox but I've just inadvertadly managed to put the PS2 on my laptop by plugging the video/audio cables into the converter and then into a USB port, and although it did work, and there wasnt a delay or anything, the quality was poor compared to a TV and also it flickered a bit so I'm not sure it would work that well- but that may have just been my computer playing up. Definitely possible though. Sorry I cant offer much more advice!

Is MSI VOX USB PAL compliant?

Crosspost:
Hi all,
If someone can help me out with this. I bought the MSI VOX in the US on assurance by the vendor that the device supports both PAL and NTSC. However, I am tryign to use this device in the UK, and all I get is noise on the channels.
I opened the box and found the LG Innotek TALN-H200T tuner inside.
Can anyone help me with
1) Does the MSI VOX (the US version) support PAL?
2) Can I use a different driver to run PAL?
3) Is there any hardware settign I can change on the TALN to make it recognize PAL?
Thanks a in advance

Amazingly, and not surprisingly, they would not give me such an enlightened explanation before I made the purchase. Its only after the $$$ is spent, that all the clarifications and qualifications come through. Before the purchase its "Yes sir, it supports PAL. Dont worry about it!"
Sucks!
If any one who reads this has a PAL tuner, can you please let me know which model LG tuner is in the device. You can find out by shining a strong light (a table lamp) into the device casing near the coax TV connector. The box is semi-transparent and you can look inside to see the model number on the largish silver box inside the device connected to the coax connector. Any help is appreciated.
Many thanks

Sandeep,
This is vivek from India, i have exact same problem, mine is MS-8609-010. I need PAL support. Please let me know if you were able to change the tuner from NTSC to PAL, if yes then how.

MSI Vox USB TV Tuner

Hi everyone!
Please post topics related to this hardware in the TV@nywhere forum!!

First of all the vox usb tv tuner will operate on Xp home SP2.
If you open the device manager, then Sound, video and game controllers you will probably see that USB2820 has been installed.
You must have MSI MS8609 Video installed as MSI PVS or MSI PVS 3 will only talk to the drive of this name.
Both drivers are provided by eMPIA technology and maybe the vox identifies itself as USB2820.
You will notice I posted the same problem a few days ago.
A partial solution I found was to uninstall USB2820 drivers and install the MSI MS8609 Video driver. I have not been able to install the driver of 2005 as found on the
MSI site but can install the 2004 version that came with my vox CD. The partial solution is the schedule/record function of MSI PVS 3 does not work with this driver so
I must run MSP PVS for the schedule/record function.

MSI VOX USB TV tuner PAL/NTSC settings

Hi,
I've used the VOX USB tv-tuner for a couple of weeks now and am pretty happy with it. Actually it works rather good for my purpose except for that the WinDVR program always resets the Device mode to NTSC_M. I live in Sweden and have to go set it to PAL_G or PAL_B all the time. However every time I restart WinDVR or if I try to record a program it resets to NTSC_M.
Today I also wanted to record a program so I hit the record button on WinDVR thinking it would work. However later it turned out with just a green screen and distored sound. So I discovered I had to force it to PAL_G and PAL SVCD recording settings and then it would work.
This is a big hassle to fix everytime. Any fix for this planned soon?
I'm using the latest MS verified MSI driver and WinDVR software that I could find on your website.
My system is
P4 3.0GHz socket 775
EPoX EP-5EPA+ motherboard
Radeon X300 PCI-Ex16 graphics with dual screens with 1600x1200@75Hz
1.5GB RAM
Windows XP Pro SP2
TV-tuner is connected directly to a USB2 port. No USB hub used.
Driver date: 05.05.2004
Driver version: 1.1.505.0

your VCR may use some form of MAcrovision protection, which prevents video piracy (or even legitimate uses!)
try another VCR and see what happens. have you got a DVD player or Xbox / PS2 you could hook up to test composite input. tried another composite lead in case that one is bad?

MSI VOX USB driver problem (XP PRO SP2)

When I plug in the VOX to the USB Windows looks for the MSI MS8609 driver, but does not find it (even if it is installed). Then after a while it finds a driver called USB2800. I've tried to uninstall this an reinstall VOX SW but I can not change it into MS8609 !

Have you tried installing the drivers from the MSI website?
The drivers are available >>here<<.
Also, make sure your motherboard drivers are installed properly and that there are no yellow exclamation marks in device manager as that would also explain why the sound card drivers won't install.

MSI VOX Audio / Video Sinc problem

Hi All.
Last week i bought a VOX TV Tuner. Nice device works well except for what i want it for.
When I try to cpature at Full PAL DVD resolution I get audio / video sinc problems. The audio is usually ahead of the video. Half PAL DVD or below it's fine.
I suspect it is the basic design of the box that is the trouble. Having the audio feed to the sound card rather than than in the USB2 feed has been a no no ever since the problem was discovered back in the USB 1 days. USB2 is capable of 400Megbits..
However I contacted another user who has no problems and says there is a patch for Direct x PAL video capture. Does any one know of this patch or has any one had the same problem as I have??
This device seems so new that there is no info on the net about it..
TIA.

I would chase that up as it sounds promising.

1001 VOX USB 2.0 problems

Hello, my name is Dushan, i am from Belgrade, Serbia; and i apologise for my lousy english.
I have several problems with my VOX card, or more precisely with software shipped with it, MSIPVS (WinDVR).
1. Channel viewing
With the original version which came from VOX cd, due to the software error on WinDVR, settings very often revert from PAL-B to NTSC leading from time to time to the COMPLETE loss of the channel list. To put it simply if i want to watch TV i must spend more then three hours every other day typing in the channel names.... With the newest MSIPVS 3 downloaded, i have even more problems.... Sure I can export the channel list, but autoscan stops after 125 channels, finds approximately 10 tv channels of 100+ available and then i am presented with the briliant option to input frequencies manualy.....
Oh, i almost forgot > modify & delete buttons look very nice shaded out and unselectable.....
2. Teletext
What teletext?
MSIPVS just doesnt like it. After all the combinations I have tried with bundled software, i finaly managed to find 3rd party (more like 10th) software which actualy works from time to time ...
3. Recording
This is the point where I just gave up...
I tried almost everything, dont know how many mpeg 2 encoders i have tried out with all the settings i could think of before i managed to get rid of (don't know how to put it) "white noise straps in the bottom of the recording"
mpeg 4 recording? HOW? There isnt a single option leading to it....
4. Power suply
Well, this is more a question, when i plug it in VOX just stops working, i presume that its getting all the power it needs from USB ?
5. Money
Average monthly wages in Serbia are around 200 euros. Price of VOX is 80 e, + cost of software to make it work = more then one month salary
And still I can not watch TV...
And in Belgrade it isnt possible to return something to store because it "doesnt work for you". If you bought it, and it is technically faultless then you're stuck with it.
6. Help!!!!

I know this is a little bit offtopic, but I always thought that VOX don't allows teletext and I am interested in that software that suports teletext. Can you tell me wath software you are using?
BTW I had a lot of problems too with the VOX (audio/video out of sync, dropped frames, etc), and since I use ChrisTV all of them disappeared.

MSI vox usb2.0 framerate problem

Hi.
I'm having a problem with my external USB2.0 tuner box.
Right after i have installed the driver, it works nicely, and i get ~25fps on the tv (the CPU load is 40%), but when i do anything (like change the video input), the framerate goes down to ~12fps (and the CPUload down to 20%). Now the fps stays there, and its not nice to look at tv with 12fps. If i use the built-in video-recording function in InterVideo MSIPVS, and start recording, the framerate goes back up to 25 again!! But that's only while recording, cos when i stop recording, it drops down to 12.
What the heck?
Can someone help me?

Msi Vox Usb Tv

Not very happy with this product now, would have been OK BUT:-
UK Tech Support sent me this reply when I asked where I could get the 'optional' power adapter for this product;

Dear Sir
Thank you for your query. Unfortunately we do not have this component for
the UK market and currently have no plans to introduce it. If you require
more power for the device you may find a powered USB hub will greatly
improve matters. If you are experiencing problems please let us know the
symptoms and we will do our best to assist you
Best Regards,

Why advertise an adapter at all, I feel like I've been conned

you can buy a self powered usb hub online now for a fiver
if they had this adaptor it would cost you more
or you could get a universal one from maplins

Reso probs with MSI VOX USB2.0 BOX

Well well...
Basicly my problem is that I cant record well with the vox box. I try to record my pc desktop with it thru a s-video cable but I cant change the resolution higher from 480*576 with the only propper Color format/compression YUY2. When i try to set a higher reso iuVCR gives the following error; Unable to set selected format! and other recording progs give a samekind error.
I've reinstalled the drivers over 20 times(latest version), tried different recording proggies and etc I have also tried it in my other computer but same prob.
I am also using the external powersupply which came with the vox to make sure its getting enough power...
Still I cant record with a decent resolution/quality...I'd appriciate any tips&tricks to make this work
PS. sorry for my poor english
/Thanks in advance

because your tuner is "software driven" and your computer is handling the encoding and rendering of the video output, and to do that it requires suitable codecs. if the software is trying to use an incompatible or corrupted codec, then you won't get any video output
unfortunately thats the only place to start. add them one by one, until you find out the one thats causing the problem. from my experience, too many codecs spoil the video viewing, K-Lite has pretty much all the codecs you'll ever need
Well that wasnt the problem I tried the capture on another computer that doesnt have any codec packs installed.
sjfm might be right...This doesnt appear to be a software problem...
Oh well I think I have to buy a new tv-card :/
