TV@nywhere master. video problem

hi. i got the tv@nywhere card for my wife for xmas & it was working fine until recently when all of a sudden when recording a clip from the dvd/vcr & she goes to add it to the project she's working on it opens only as a mpeg sound clip??? all was fine, now this. i tried the uninstall/reinstall deal, with no luck. i got the updated driver via an e-mail from intervideo and again, no luck. i know my system can handle it. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks. take care all

Patience Yuz this forum has no input from MSI so you have to wait until someone, somewhere else in the world is awake.
Regards to MSIPVS yes it is awful and there has been quite some discussion within this section of the forum and the survey section as to the problems with this software. It is not only MSIPVS that is at fault the drivers also need some work. On some PC`s MSIPVS causes crashes but by far the biggest complaint is the poor display. Also MSIPVS or the card/drivers not sure which, will not remember it`s locale, every time it is started it will go back to the default in my case it seams to be PAL_B and some times to NTSC my locale is the UK and the TV setting should be PAL_I but getting to stay on PAL_I is a big problem. It makes it hard to schedule a recording as it will probably start in the wrong format. I agrre with you that feeware software is better than MSIPVS.  
Thanks to your previous post I can confirm that you have sorted the remote`s missing functions.
Now all we need to get the drivers and MSIPVS sorted.

  • TV@nywhere Master Recording Problems

    The TV@nywhere Master works fine for viewing, but I can't record without problems.  There is a sound problem with all available versions of WinDVR.  The recorded sound regularly "warbles" or pulsates. It is detectable when a musical tone is playing, otherwise it may be hard to hear. It is very annoying once you pick up on it.  Other interVideo programs WinProducer and WinDVD Recorder exhibit the same problem.
    I tried PowerVCR and I get an error message when attempting to record in MPEG2:
    S0009 : Unable to render preview video stream.
    I have all the latest drivers and software versions. I even tried a clean install of Windows several times and a different sound card, but no luck. I'm getting nowhere with tech support. Very frustrating.

    Onboard nForce2 sound (also tried Soundblaster Audigy)
    AMD 2800+ Barton CPU

    Using PowerVCR II 3.0, and there is no Use Smart Tee option available.
    Here's all the options:
    Video -> Overlay Options -> Overlay/Non-Overlay  (Non-overlay causes a crash)
    Profiles
    Check boxes for MMX, SSE, 3DNow and Enhanced 3DNow.  All are checked.
    Recording / Advanced -> Advanced Options
    Video Smoothing (during recording) - unchecked
    Intelligent Noise Removal (during recording)  checked
    Enable Time-Shifting when recording  - unchecked
    Have tried changing most of these settings but always get error message, unless I use MPEG1 which is not acceptable quality.
    I did a search in Help for "Smart" and for "Tee" and there are no matches.

    K7D Master Video problem

    Quote from: Liquidman.com on 13-December-05, 09:40:12
    Well let's see, The k7D is a dual mobo and will work with only a limited number of cards, after trying a few I finally settled on an nvidia Direct X 9.something (there is no name on the card, and I have 6 video card box's) I put in a a Wildcat 5110 I had laying around, but the driver doesn't support Max 8, or even 7, can't use software/Heidi. You just see the desktop through the viewports. This mobo uses an AGP pro slot, I don't even know if anyone's makeing these anymore.
    Are you running linux ? If so i suggest a Nvidia card.

  • Numerous Problems with New TV@nywhere Master

    Greetings all.  A few days ago, I purchased a TV@nywhere Master card.  I own two MSI mainboards and an MSI video card that I think are great, but so far this product has been nothing but junk.  I am having numerous problems with it that I have not been able to resolve:
    1.  The remote control just plain doesn't work.
    2.  I am unable to adjust the TV volume within the MSIPVR tuner software.  Turning it up and down or muting it does nothing.  However, whenever I exit the program, it mutes the line-in jack on my sound card and doesn't unmute it when I run the program again!  I have to run the Creative Surround Mixer and unmute the jack before I get any TV audio.
    3.  Originally when I booted up, the radio tuner kicked in with a fuzzy feed, even though the software was not running.  I had to run the software and exit it to make this stop.  I believe this has resolved itself.
    4.  The MSIPVR software seems very unstable.
    I have tried updating all the software from the official MSI drivers page and I also tried the unofficial releases of both the drivers and the MSIPVR 3.0 beta from this forum.  The 3.0 beta build seems even more unstable (though it is a beta so this is understandable), but none of my other problems have been resolved either.  I've perused the forums looking for ideas, but haven't found anything that's worked.  I've also tried all these steps on two different systems that I have with the same results.
    I'm really shocked that MSI would release such a low-quality product as most of their other things are quite well made.  I am looking to see if anyone has suggestions I can try to resolve this.  I am interested in keeping this card if these can be fixed, but if not, I'll be returning this unit and picking up something from ATI instead.  There's absolutely no reason for a card to be runnign this poorly and be in a shipping state.
    Below are my system specifications should they be of any help:
    AthlonXP 2800+ FSB333
    MSI K7N2 Delta-L nForce 2
    1024MB PQI PC3700 LL
    Sound Blaster Audigy
    ATI RADEON 9600XT
    Promise FastTrak TX2000

    One more note (great stuff Stu:))... with regards to the remote... try to give it a slight extra push into the socket :D.
    As stupid as it sounds, it happens :p... at least with me it did. I kept on trying to get the remote to work in the beginning, only to find out in the end that I hadn't played it ALL the way into the input socket. After the click, it worked.
    I hope you can get the sound stuff working though. That's definitely a pain :(. I'm personally having issues with the original card and new software now... but yeah, I shall wait on your feedback first:).
    OK, I've finally had some time to try out the various other suggestions that have been made and unfortunately, have met with no success.  I tried changing my audio to CD In on my Audigy which still has the same sound problems.  I also checked out the connection with the remote and it is in all the way.  Still no go on that one.  My power supply ratings are:
    +5V:  35A Maximum/0A Minimum
    +12V:  24A Maximum/0.8A Minimum
    +3.3V:  28A Maximum/0A Minimum
    -5V:  0.5A Maximum/0A Minimum
    -12V:  1.0A Maximum/0A Minimum
    +5V SB:  2.0A Maximum/0A Minimum
    At this point, I'm pretty much at my wits end.  If anyone has other ideas, I can entertain them, but tomorrow if I don't have this up, I'll be taking it back.  This card is demonstrating itself as just poorly designed and built.  Thanks for your help all!

  • TV@nywhere Master problems

    I recently purchased TV@nywhere Master to use on my Dell Dimension 4550 which runs WinXP, and would like help with the following issues:
    •   The signal for the TV card is provided by an antenna however, it is not strong enough to reach the tuner’s threshold, so none of my channels show as available in SETUP. I have already downloaded and installed the three latest driver versions from the MSI website. Do you have any suggestions as to how I can remedy this situation? The same antenna provides the signal to our two TVs, and our reception is perfect.
    •   I have twice attempted to register this card on your website, and have been told both times that my sessions, which took about a minute, had timed out! Can you fix this, please?
    •   The radio comes on unbidden whenever I start my computer, and after it comes out of standby mode.

    I have a TV@nywhere master and I live in the UK.
    I do not have any problems with tuning the stations with MSIPVS. All 4 main channels work fine, it also tuned in to some weaker signals. The only terrestrial channel I can not get is channel 5 but that is because they is no channel 5 by aerial in my area.
    You could try fine tuning the channel that BBC2 is on, it may help, how to do it is in the manual.
    The drivers on MSI web site are not for the master (MS-8606) version they are for the original TV@nywhere and the TV@nywhere Master drivers are the same version number as the one on the website but have probably been tweaked to accommodate the new Microtune MT2050 tuner.
    The only gripe I have about the MS-8606 is the drivers for the tuner. They do work BUT if you want to use any other software that works with the new CX2883 and MT2050 chips, you have to run MSIPVS first to get the tuner to work. The display within MSIPVS also leaves a lot to be desired especially after using Dscaler (no tuner - video-in only). Video-in is not a problem and works with most well know freeware/shareware software. The capture quality (which is my main concern) is excellent when using the higher setting. I have captured some footage of an holiday video that was transfered to an very high quality VHS tape nearly 12 years ago, and converted it to an SVCD. The quality of the end results is as good as the original VHS tape. I have also capture from the Tuner in DVD quality and it is almost undistinguishable from a real DVD`s play back and certainly better than some cheapo DVDs.
    As the Tuner and encode/decoding chips are very new (product only released 3-4 weeks ago) support and new drivers will take time to appear, BUT even without the support etc. I can still see the quality that this card as to offer.

  • Problem with the TV@nywhere Master's sound

    Hi,

    dear Mike
    I have the same problem. to the best of my judgement, this is hardware problem and you  should contact the manufacturer for warranty coverage through your dealer.

  • TV@nywhere Master poor video quality with 6800 GT

    I have the TV@nywhere master (8606-020) and it was working fin with my NVIDIA Geforce 6800 GT OC (256MB) but when I updated the driver to their latest version, every time I would go full-screen in MSIPVR it would make lines all through the video.  I reinstalled drivers, MSIPVS and same thing.  I then rolled back the NVIDIA driver, and the issue disappeared.  Anyone have the same issue and know how to use the new driver from NVIDIA and get it working right?  Thanks!
                                              - Mike

    Hi:
    Thaniks for writing back. My comment really was directed at ellucidating how many others might have poorer quality using Nvidia 6800-based graphics cards as the originator of this thread implicated. Second, as to your comments, it would seem a good idea to stay with the old drivers. The new drivers were supposed to solve TitanTV directed recordings; this they do better, but still insufficiently at least in my hands. Maybe the only choice left is to stay with the originals. But before uninstalling the current version and installing the original, I had a third question that perhaps you could address.
    Perhaps you could comment on why the driver scan at http://driveragent.com
    reveals my currently up-to-date version MSI 8606 (TV@nywhere master) Audio Capture and MSI 8606 Video capture drivers are out of date? Based on the listings in Device Manager, they are currently Conexant version cx88aud.sys, 2.3.79.0 and C88Vid.SYS, 4.0.102.0. Did my drivers fail to update correctly, are there drivers for this available somewhere else, not listed on the MSI website, like Intervideo, etc, or is this website wrong? I hate to pay money to find out they are simply wrong. Do you get the same results?

  • Sound problems with CNBC and E4 with TV @nywhere Master

    Got the TV @nywhere Master card, had no problems with tuning in the cable stations picked up all the channels, but E4 and CNBC have no sound just a anoying clicking sound. Have updated the drivers and software, tried the card with Windows 2000 SP4, and XP pro SP1, tried both internal & external audio connections, nothing makes a difference. Anyone got any idea's?

    I bought and installed a TV@nywhere Master yesterday (18June03) and no sound problems at all. The Radio volume control definitely controls the line in volume, but check that the mixer Volume Control is not being muted. My Sound in via on-board sound 6 channel Realtek ACL650.
    I have been generally very pleased with the results but have yet to get the remote to do anything, I have WinXP SP1 with all updates installed. Not sure if it is my System set-up or faulty remote but it a minor concern for me.
    I would suggest that you take a look at VirtualVCR (freeware) for your capturing if you want more that Mpeg files. It works very well for me and allows me to capture using the frame size and codec of my choosing

    HI Guy's
    I recently got a MSI MS8606 TV@nywhere Master and had the same problem as the guy's above  with MSN messager sound and tv channels ect and It's seems that these problems I know it sounds crazy but if you have Power DVD 4 or older than uninstall that first then load up your MSI software using the latest apps and drivers on the MSI site and not the stuff on the CD ecexpt for MSI radio which works better than the latest one and All should be fine
    and oh Hyperthreading works just fine! if you haven't noticed than when you turn off Hyperthreading the CPU temp goes up by 4 to 5 C and YES PowerDVD 5 works but load that up after the MSI software.
    Hope that helps  

  • MSI TV@nywhere MASTER PCI TV Tuner card FAQ

    So you’ve just decided to add a MSI TV@nywhere Master card to your PC, you’re gonna need some help installing it then!! Before you continue, I recommend you download the Unofficial New Drivers in the other sticky, to avoid any heart (and brain!) ache.
    For best results also, you should be running at least DirectX 8.1. This is included on the driver CD, or you can download the latest version from Microsoft's DirectX Page. If you have a P4 which supports Hyperthreading, you will also need at least Windows XP SP2, otherwise you will have to disable hyperthreading in BIOS.
    You should also be in the habit of having the latest drivers for your video card, audio card and motherboard chipset; this can also avoid any future TV software failure. And make sure you regularly run Windows Update (or use the Automatic Update feature) to keep your Windows clean and up-to-date. And also remember when installing new drivers or software, if the installer suggests you restart the computer then do so, before you install anything else! Drivers not installing correctly are common causes of problems, especially with this card!
    INSTALLING THE HARDWARE
    I’m presuming you’re familiar with the concepts of building and upgrading PCs, so I won’t go into too much detail on obvious stuff (like “remove the side panel of your case, locate a free PCI slot…”).
    Fit the TV@nywhere Master card into a free PCI slot. If you didn’t get one with it, you’ll need a CD-audio lead from somewhere (the thin grey lead). If you have one connected between your CD drive and your soundcard CD-Audio In connector, then use that, any version of Windows after 98 supports digital audio extraction, so it is not needed there now. Connect one end of the audio lead to the 4 pin header on the TV@nywhere card and the other to the AUX input on your soundcard (or motherboard if using onboard). If you are installing the Mega TV Tuner in a Mega series barebones, connect it to the TV audio input on the mainboard to the rear. Don’t worry about using the 3.5mm jack plug lead to connect tv card audio, we don’t need it now, doing it this way.
    CONNECTING YOUR TV SIGNAL
    Depending on your global location, this may vary. Either way you need to connect either a aerial (ANTENNA) or cable (CABLE) to the CATV connector on the card. Someone will no doubt clarify this for me, but cable is for US-type cable, which doesn’t need a decoder box. Most people will be using the Antenna I’m guessing. Your choice of CABLE or ANTENNA needs to be remembered, you’ll need this later.
    You will not be able (or have limited success) in connecting a video recorder or set-top box to the CATV connector. Instead you will need to use the Composite or S-Video connector, and connect the audio source either directly to the soundcard or to the Line-in on the TV card.
    INSTALLING THE DRIVER
    Don’t use the driver on the CD. Download the latest driver from the MSI download page. If you are a Mega series user, make sure that Windows has been installed onto the C: drive. If not you’ll have to reinstall, and disable the USB controller in BIOS to prevent the card readers becoming the C: and D: drives. This also causes problems later.
    I would advise temporarily disabling any anti-virus programs at this point, to avoid any complications.
    When you start up after first installing the card, cancel any Found New Hardware wizards that appear. OK, so extract the contents of the downloaded ZIP, and run the PVSSetup.exe file to install the drivers. Once this is complete, RESTART your PC and the drivers will be installed for the new hardware found.
    Check in Device Manager, there should be four new hardware listed under Sound, Video and Game Controllers related to MS8606. If you see any with the (?) next to them, you might need to try the card in another slot.
    INSTALLING THE MSIPVS TV SOFTWARE
    If you wish to use other TV recording software other than MSIPVS then please feel free to do so.
    MSI do not make their own software. At least not all the time. MSIPVS is a rebranded version of Intervideo’s WinDVR software, with extra features added such as network streaming for TV@nywhere. Some people love it. Lots of people hate it. Generally most people who have posted here hate it. People who love it tend not to post if they don't have problems.  The people that hate it generally mess initial settings up, which can cause problems when they try to change it. The more patient of us will always get it eventually right!
    Install the MSIPVS software. Easy as that. Its setting it up correctly that’s the tricky part. Listed below are the main things to look for when performing initial setup. If you are unsure about anything else then read the manual! Only a complete genius would dare install any unfamiliar hardware without having the manual handy for reference - how do you suppose I learnt anything? 
    Device
    Video Input:
    "Device" is always the Conexant Cx2388x Video Capture"
    "Source" - select TV if you are connecting your signal to the CATV connector (antenna or cable), select S-Video or Composite if using these instead
    "Standard" - set this to your local TV standard, eg if in UK set to "PAL-I". if unsure, do a Google search and find out!!
    If you don't set these correctly you won't receive any channels and/or they will appear incorrectly.
    Audio Input:
    "Device" will be your soundcard or onboard audio device
    "Source" will be the connector your TV card audio output is connected to, this will be "TV" on Mega series, otherwise check!! If you connected the internal lead to AUX on your soundcard or mobo, then set it to "AUX". If you used external lead to connect to Line-In, this will be "Line-in" etc etc.
    If you don't set these correctly you may or may not hear audio while watching live TV, and you will hear no audio on recorded TV.
    TV
    Tuner:
    "Input" will be Antenna if you have an aerial connected, or Cable if you are connected to unencoded cable TV.
    "Country or Region" - if need to explain this one then maybe you shouldn't have this card!
    Channel
    Now we will see if your settings and TV signal are good! Tick the Freescan box, and then click on Autoscan. This may take a while, and for a short time it may appear that the program is doing nothing. Patience! It will soon start, and then pick up any available channels it can find.
    Make sure you have a good strong signal if you are using an aerial, otherwise TV@nywhere won’t pick up as many channels. UK viewers – just using a simple set-top aerial and signal booster, I could even receive Channel Five (or “five” as it is known now!)
    So at this point now, if all has gone well, you should be able to watch and record TV on your PC!                                     If it hasn't...

    "I've lost my CDs and MSIPVS needs a serial number to install!"
    MSI in their wisdom printed the serial key for MSIPVS on the actual CD. This serial key is the same printed on EVERY CD. Which kind of defeats the object in my humble opinion. Anyways, the answer can be found in this post: MSIPVS requires serial number!
    "When installing MSIPVS, the program hangs then shows a message saying "remote procedure call failed" "
    If you are a Mega user, you have installed Windows onto a partition other than C:. You will need to reinstall Windows, making sure you disable USB controller in BIOS, so that the card readers do not take up C: and D: drives. Upon first restart (after Windows has created partition), you may re-enter BIOS and enable USB controller before Windows continues installing itself.
    "MSIPVS installs, but when I start the application I get an error message "WinDVR has caused a problem and needs to shutdown" "
    hpkuo credits this to sizzle in his hints and tips thread, but I'll elaborate a little. The problem is caused by QuickTime codecs installed by Nero 6.3.1.15. It is unclear whether later versions of Nero were fixed, but earlier versions should be okay. "A "quick fix" is to rename the files "NeQTADec.ax" and "NeQTVDec.ax" in "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Ahead\DSFilter\"."
    Another alternative suggestion is to uninstall the codecs from the registry. I found this solution in another forum for another TV card with same problem:
    Go to Start > Run (or press Windows key + R) and enter:
    regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Ahead\DSFilter\NeQTADec.ax"
    regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Ahead\DSFilter\NeQTVDec.ax"
    The only consequence seems to be that Nero Vision can’t decode Apple Quick time format after this (something I can live with)
    If you do require QuickTime codecs to be installed, there is the Quicktime alternative available from here: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/QuickTime_Alternative.htm . Or you could just use an earlier version of Nero.
    PS if you are using a non-english setup of Windows, then the above paths will relate to how windows translates on your PC - ie subsitute Program Files etc for your local translation 
    "I have connected the external audio lead to the Line-In (blue) jack on my mobo, and set it correctly in MSIPVS, but I hear no TV sound"
    If your mobo supports 5.1 speakers but only has three jacks on rear, the Line-in and Mic jacks have been configured to act as Rear Speaker and Center/Sub outputs. If you have only two speakers, they should be connected to the green Front Speaker jack. You will need to go into your audio hardware's configuration panel / Windows Audio Device Properties to correctly configure the rear jacks.
    The other alternative is to use the internal audio connector - simply use a CD-audio lead to connect it to the AUX or CD internal connector on your mobo or soundcard. CD audio leads (the analog grey lead from your CD drive to the soundcard / mobo CD audio connector) are redundant now, as Windows now uses digital audio extraction through IDE channel. Make sure you set the audio signal correctly in MSIPVS to match this.
    "When I start up Windows I can hear a hissing like "static" / the radio is playing"
    One issue that was fixed in the latest Drivers; if that still doesn't work then the Radio volume is not muted at Windows startup. I'll let hschroed take over here:
    "Both MSI Radio and MSI PVS, unmute the TV card at program start, and mute the TV card at SUCCESSFUL program exit (remember we are not talking about the soundcard mixer state here). What this means is as long as a single program start and a single SUCCESSFUL program exit takes place, the TV card tuner will be muted, regardless of what the soundcard mixer audio source states are. If the PC is rebooted (without a PC power-off), for whatever reason, while the MSI Radio or MSI PVS program is executing (a successful exit has not been performed), the TV card will remain in an unmuted state until the next startup and successful exit of either of the two programs.
    The TV card mute/unmute status is carried over a reboot without PC power off. What this means is that after a PC power on, once the TV card has been properly muted by a start and successful exit of the MSI program, the TV card mute/unmute status should be in proper synchronization with the applications (regardless of the soundcard mixer status), as long as the PC is not powered off. (Romulus mentions computer coming out of standby. I did not test that scenario but I would expect that if going into standby means power is stopped to TV card, the effect would be similar to a PC power off)."
    "My regular TV receives all 5 channels (even Channel Five!), but when I connect aerial to TV@nywhere I only get 3"
    Common to all TV tuner hardware (not just MSI's!) is the need for a good strong signal. A moderate signal might appear okay on a regular domestic TV, but might not be strong enough for the TV tuner hardware. Consider investing in a good signal booster, or getting your aerial changed.
    Consequently, I have also learned today that TOO strong a signal is bad for TV tuner cards, as soon as I know more I'll let you know...
    "I have connected my VCR to the CATV connector, but it does not appear when autoscanning."
    "I cannot receive any channels when I connect my Sky box to the RF (CATV) connector."
    Thanks to a wonderful technology called "Macrovision" protection, many VCRs and satellite/cable boxes won't work in this way by connecting them using their RF output. Anyone who gets a result is very lucky. There's always the Composite and S-Video In connectors to try. But either way, the TV@nywhere card won't scan all their channels, you'll still have to change them manually.
    "Windows XP Media Center says that my "tuner hardware is malfunctioning or not installed" but I have installed the latest TV@nywhere drivers from MSI"
    Neither the Vox or the TV@nywhere cards are compatible with MCE2005. MCE2005 requires an analogue TV card capable of hardware MPEG2 encoding, or a software DVB-T (digital) card that already receives an MPEG2 video stream over-the-air.
    You can however still use the Vox or the TV@nywhere using the MSIPVS software outside of the MCE2005 application.
    "MSIPVS keeps defaulting my location back to Afghanistan, even though I set it to US / UK/ Sweden / Latvia / Kazahkstan"
    You will need to reinstall the drivers and software due to a glitch. Uninstall MSIPVS and the tuner drivers (with its PVSSetup.exe setup program) then restart your PC, and ignore the Found New Hardware wizard. Install the tuner drivers with the PVSSetup.exe program, then restart your PC. Then install MSIPVS, restart your PC and you're good to go again!
    "Where can I find these "Unofficial New Drivers" that people keep referring to here?"
    The "Unofficial New (BETA) Drivers" became obsolete when MSI officially released them. You can find them on the Product Support page for this card, as they are now the latest drivers. MSI TV@nywhere Master product page

  • Tv@nywhere Master Blue Screaning

    Ok, got the Tv@nywhere Master a couple of weeks ago ad have had a blue screen error with it ever since. When shutting down/restarting/hibernating Windows just goes into a blue screen. The error says:
    "IRQ_NOT_EQUAL_TOO_OR_LESS" or some sort. The error is pinpointed at the file: "cx88aud.sys". This problem is being caused by the TvAnywhere card. I have downloaded and installed the newest drivers and on my first restart it worked fine but when I went to restart or shut down this box it just started to blue screen again with the error.
    I have searched through the Microsoft site and have came back with nothing that could fix the problem with a windows patch. The newest drivers dont seem to make a differance at all either. Has anyone else got this problem and/or know of a way to fix it.
    Im running 2200xp, MSI K6 Delta, 1 gig Ram aand Audigy and CMedia [onboard] sound cards on a Windows XP Pro box. If it helps.

    I am also getting BSD when I run a program called Video Studio version 8.0.  I didn't have this problem when I was running the onboard sound card, but when I upgraded to the Audigy 2 card, I get a BSD saying the CC88XBAR.sys has produced a page fault.  I think it may be a conflict with the soundblaster drivers.  Try removing you sound card and its drivers and try the TV@nywhere without it, just for troubleshooting.  Good Luck

  • Tv@nywhere Master - Cant capture higher than 352X288

    Hi
    I have a Tv@nywhere Master and i cant capture any higher that 352x288 resolution.
    I tryed VirtualDub and Adobe Premier . They both say : Unsuported Video Format when i try to select 640x480 or 720x576 . (PAL mode)
    The original software (MSIPVS) lets me choose the format and resolution but i dont want to use it because it offers poor quality.
    I am capturing from VHS at maximum quality possible and storing it in AVI uncompressed and then use TMPEGenc to SVCD.
    Can anyone comment on this ?
    Doesnt this board capture higher than 352x288 ???
    Thank you
    Filipe

    I use it in 768x576 without any problems
    you just have to look for a   Use Smart Tee Filter  setting because the card can`t both capture and preview over 288 so you`ll need to split the data on the Capture pin in order to provide preview over 288 lines.

  • TV@nywhere Master sound but only black picture.

    Hi
    I bought an TV@nywhere Master and i have a serios problem whit it. I can get sound out of it. Both on radio and the tv part. But i just get a black picture when trying to watch tv. But the tv channels sound good. Can you give my any pointers? I curently running the latest drivers for it. My comp has windows xp sp1 installed. My comp is an P4 2,4ghz 512 ram ati radeon 9600pro whit 3.6 catalyst drivers änd directx 9.0b.
    How long does it take for MSI to anwesr an e-mail?

    mazk0,
    Are you by chance running a dual-screen system (2 monitors)? I noticed that with my setup only my primary monitor would display the TV video. In the secondary screen - I would get a black screen and no sound.
    Just a thought. Also, this might sound obvious, but make sure that your TV source is set to TV and not Composite or other. (not sure you would get any sound in this scenario, but since sound is piped through you line-in it may just be the case).
    Let me know.

  • [TV@Master] TV@nywhere master and DScaler 4.1.11

    hi there,
    over the weekend i thought i would try out a program that claims to be able to run my TV@nywhere master. that program is DScaler 4.1.11
    The program says it supports the CX2388x chipset so i thought i would play it safe and uninstalled MSIPVS and drivers and start with a cold boot, the program installed without problems, auto detecting my card, and starting up just fine. once running i had video but could not get sound, after playing with it for awhile i still could not get sound so i decided to uninstall the program and reinstall MSIPVS and drivers. I did this the same as i did before, uninstalled, powered off, powered on, shut down anything running in the background, reinstalled drivers from the cd, reinstalled MSIPVS and radio, after install, rebooted, then set up MSIPVS as i had done before (before DScaler everything worked just fine including the remote) when i had the program set up i noticed i had no sound so i checked my settings (nothing different than before), checked the device manager to make sure windows knew the card was there and no conflicts or problems and found nothing out of sorts. at this point i began to worry so i uninstalled and reinstalled with the same results, i also tried the beta drivers and the newer MSIPVS with the same results, video with no sound (when you turn the volume way up you can hear a crackling sound) at this point i was getting pretty    so i spent the next few hours trying to find out what had happened. i posted on there site asking for help but no response so far.
    from what i've read on there forum an early version of DScaler trashes the EPROM on the TV@nywhere master (i hope this is not the problem!) but that issue was supposed to be fixed with later versions of the program.
     I am at my wits end at this point.    Not sure what to try next except filling the card in the circular file
    can anyone give me some ideas on what to do? does MSI have a utillity availible to fix things like this?
    one thing is for sure DScaler will never see any rig i build from now on!     

     
    IT LIVES AGAIN!!!!!!!!
     Hi there!
    I just wanted to post an update! i got my card working again with much better results than before!! Stu you should see the picture i get and hear the sound quality!!
    alright! i'll write this down before i forget what i did. first thing i did was to uninstall MSI drivers and MSIPVS and Radio, then i downloaded DScaler 4.1.8 and the reflasher utility, then i installed DScaler, then i unpacked the reflasher to DScalers program folder and ran the tool, after that i uninstalled DScaler and powered off my rig, next i powered up and after closing anything running in the background i installed the drivers Stu posted then i powered down again. after powering up and closing everything i installed MSIPVS from the original CD that came with the card and the radio that Stu posted, powered down again, restarted and set up MSIPVS great vidio but no sound    then i started looking for a work around, i decided to run composite cables from my dish setup. vidieo to the tuner and audio to the sound card with the spliter that came with the card. got picture but no sound    then i started checking other things, "line in" is in my volume control and wasn't muted so i opened up my "sound manager" (my board has the Realtec ALC850 chipset) and started messing around with the settings there, after going thru 2 or 3 different configurations i let it auto detect and sudenly i got sound!!  (i tried auto detect first with no results) so at this point i thought i might push my luck, removed the composite cables and hooked the cable back up then restarted MSIPVS, went to setup and set it up choosing cable and line in, i ran the channel search and got vidio and sound!!!!!!     
    i'm not sure what happened because before DScaler everything worked fine (sound and video not as good as i wanted) after all this i get a great picture and great sound!! no noise in either!!
    so far so good! now that's behind me i won't be messing with alternative programs and the TV@nywhere master again!!
    i really hope this helps someone else find a way to get there card back up and running!!
