Hi all

i have spent the last week trying to get this to work with no luck.

I bought Wintv 900 HVR - 65018

I am trying to stream a channel (private of course!) But i am hitting a brick wall. Heres what i have done so far.
  • Using windows 7 I Installed wintv from disk - did not work so downloaded wintv 7
    that worked fine but would not work with Flash Media encoder (FME)
    The encoder just showed static, i opened wintv, choose the channel, closed it, opened FME ---- You get the point!
  • I read and read about this and figured XP service pack 3 was my best bet. This worked great! I was able to see and stream the channels in FME "BUT" i could not get the digital channels. I thought that maybe it was down to the drivers so i went back to Windows 7, removed everything, installed the newer drivers but kept the old player, no luck.
  • The next thing i tried was installing wintv on vista, again the disk installation did not work so i downloaded the up to date drivers and ran the wintv v6 player, all i got was static again.


This is driving me MAD! I can get wintv to work but not with FME
I think the closest i got was with XP as i was streaming the analog but it would freeze when looking for digital. I even tried copying the complete database from w orking installation to the xp one to try manualy input the channels. Didnt work


PLEASE PLEASE Help me!! i dont care what OS i need tho xp would be great and my first choice.

My CPU details are:

I have an Acer Aspire x3300
AMD Athlon II (x4) 630 Prosser 2.80 GHz
4GB RAM

The OS i tried on this are:
Windows 7 Home Prem 64bit
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
Windows Vista Home Prem 32bit
Windows XP Pro SP 2 and 3
