Dual HDTV tuner cards with DVB Viewer Pro?

[antdude]

Hi.

 

Can I have two old Broadband Technologies Air2PC-ATSC-PCI HDTV tuner card (r0.2) in a computer with an updated Windows XP Pro. SP3? If so, then are there any special requirements to do it like drivers, software, etc.?

 

Thank you in advance.

The Air2PC Driver should be not to old (at least 4.4.0 or 4.4.1).

Than should it work.

Hmm, I am still using driver 4.3.3.1. I will have to upgrade the bundled stuff from http://www.bbti.us/support.htm ...

 

Since I have one card already installed and working for years in my PC, I just add the other one, boot up my computer, XP detects the added card, and I am ready to go in DVBViewer?

I now have two of your HDTV tuner cards installed. Both seem to work. I can select which card to use. Now, how do I use both at the same time in DVBViewer Pro v4? I don't see any instructions on how to use both for viewing, recording, etc. I tried launching two DVBViewer Pro, but I only get one. I tried launching TE and Pro, but Pro couldn't find my card.

 

Thank you in advance.

Are both cards listed under Options > Hardware?

If yes it should work in one DVBViewer Pro.

 

Try to record one channel and watch one from a norther frequency at the seam time.

Oh. Can I do two recordings too, but not timeshift and doing something?

Recordings on two frequency at the seam time should be possible to or PiP.

Timeshift only works with the current playback in the main window. But you can watch Recordings while thy are still recording.

So I can't do two timeshifts. That's a bummer. I was hoping to ues timeshift as my recording so I can switch back and forth between two timeshifting channels.

 

I assume scheduled (Timer) can do two recordings at the same time (haven't tried it yet).

I have AverTV Duo Hybrid PCI-EII installed. With Aver Mediacenter I can watch three different channels same time. Is it possibe with DVBViewer what I like more than Aver Mediacenter?
