I did alot of research and read many forums (mostly here) and decided to depart on my journey to freeview on MCE2005.
Long story short, all went very well and I got everything working with a single hauppauge HVR-3000 card (DVB-S) from my sky dish and all was hunky dorey. Decided it was time to put the second HVR-3000 into the machine (2 record while watching another channel) and thats when it all went pear-shaped. Essentially, with the two cards in I cannot get a signal on MCE via either cards. I have re-run the "setup you TV signal" wizard about a million times, but nothing can make it work. If I do a channel scan, delete all the exisiting channels and start again - it will find the channels I need. But then, a large message on the sceen saying I have no signal.
I have confirmed the signal from my splitter is ok via my Freeview decoder. If I revert everything back to one card again I seem to be able to get it all going.
My gut feelings is it might be driver related. I have fired up WinTV which DOES get a picture, but I cant figure out a way to choose which card is being displayed - so it only proves that one card works. The signal is strong though.
I've been fiddling with this for while now and Im getting nowhere. Has anyone else got this config working? Any special tricks?
Cheers
