<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My system seems to be working fine now. I did have the problem but a combination of deleting all and re-adding the capture cards, then using the pop up menu to change tuner has got me to a working system.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>See specific answers to you questions below - pretty much the same as others who have replied.</DIV>

<DIV>Cheers</DIV>

<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial, helvetica, sans-serif"> </DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial, helvetica, sans-serif">One source.</DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><BR>2) Did you do a channel scan for each capture card in the first 'input<BR>connections' screen</DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial, helvetica, sans-serif"> </DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Yes I did.</DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><BR>2) What are the values for the input group 1 and input group 2 for<BR>each of your cards?<BR></DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial, helvetica, sans-serif">for first DVB tuner it is DVB0 in both group 1 and group 2, for second tuner it is DVB1 in both group 1 and group 2. Originally it was generic for both group 2 settings. I don't understand what this feature does, so not sure if changing from the default generic in group 2 will affect some other feature.</DIV>
