So where from?

Probably you should try the new WDM driver für Hauppauge tv-cards. Yesterday I posted an article on our's homepage about the new available drivers. I'm sure you'll find out how to download even it's all in German http://www.3dwin.de/main/article.php?sid=1088 Greetings, Kevin

Hauppauge just 'inofficially' released a new driver for all WinTV-cards for Windows NT 4 and 2000. The Readme isn't updated, so don't know what has been changed. For those who have troubles might try it anyways. Get it here: ftp://ftp.hauppauge.com/hcws/Support/NTdrv308.exe Greetings, Kevin

Try to disable the NetMeeting-Remote-Desktop-Sharing in the Windows Services (sorry, don't know the exact name, because I'm not using an English version). Kevin

@ Sandoval: Look there: news://alt.icq Kevin

To remove that SMS logo, close ICQ and go to the ICQ\Partner folder and delete the Partner.xml file. Then make a new file named Partner.xml and set it as read only. Kevin [This message has been edited by kEViNoPolY (edited 11 February 2001).]

Well, thanks for your help guys. With SHS help I could at least get the sound working, however it's mono only. I still have the problem that the picture is moved on the first WinTV start - even with the new Detonator drivers v7.17 and DirectX 8. I hope this will be fixed when Detonator 4 (?) and the WDM driver goes final. So far it's working quite nice now. Kevin

If I start another TV application before WinTV (like MoreTV), then WinTV runs fine and with sound. Weird, isn't it? Doesn't Hauppauge support their own products? I have the WinTV Radio with BT878 chipset. I hope this will be fixed in the final version of the WDM driver. Kevin

Well, after uninstalling and installing the WDM drivers again (this time with DirectX 8 Final Version) I still have the same problems. But I found out that the "moved" TV picture thing can be fixed with restarting the WinTV software again. But still I've no sound. I'm sure that the audio-settings in WinTV and Windows are correct, also the "Audio driver" seems to be installed correctly in the Device Manager. Do you have any other ideas? Kevin

Yeah, I tried this earlier with a beta version. Don't think the final will help more since there aren't any applications or games which will fully support DirectX 8, will it? Kevin

These WDM drivers doesn't work for me . I always get a "moved" TV picture, besides the fullscreen quality is really poor and the sound is not working. SHS, they run perfect for you? Kevin

Hornet, you are right. Just look here... http://www.3dwin.de :-D Greetings, Kevin

I bought the Phillips Vesta Pro PCVC680K recently and am very happy about it. It offers you up to 640 x 480 with 30 fps in a fair good quality. Also it contains nice video-software made by ulead. You should keep this cam in your mind.

No, it's not fullsized, either not in Primary oder DIB Draw Mode. Anyways alternative TV applications like MoreTV or BorgTV work fine in fullscreen. Kevin

Okay, I did the following and now it's finally working again: 1. Uninstall the WinTV-Software and -Drivers COMPLETLY 2. Uninstall the nVidia-Display Drivers COMPLETLY, so Windows 2000 uses its own nVidia-Drivers after a reboot 3. Install the WinTV Drivers again 4. After a reboot install the WinTV-Software 5. Set "Display Mode" to Overlay 6. Search and programm all channels 7. At LAST (make sure WinTV was working successfully before) install the nVidia-Drivers again. Now I'm running the Detonator 3 and WinTV without problems. Hope it will also in the future. Kevin
