Leadtek Winfast DTV 1000T (HELP PLEASE!)


Recommended Posts

Currently pulling my hair out over this issue. I've just purchased said card, it was working and now suddenly it asked me to reinstall the driver, it didn't find the driver on the disk and didn't like it when I forced an install.

I then did a widnows restore back before I installed it, and did it exactly as I had before and whenever I run the install utility it throws out the message in the attatchment. I've tried all the updated software on the site and I've had no joy. What on earth can it all mean!?

That's how it came across to me too. Why would it work and then suddenly stop working? It just doesnt make sense. I cannot find this error message anywhere on the internet in relation to this card either. I'm absolutely stumped.

Turns out that the jumper was set to the wrong position on the card!

Now I'm having media center issues, it works in the provided software but media center tells me that there is a decoder error... even tho it manages to scan for channels! Any ideas?

Hi,

You can find some helpful tips for Microsoft Media Center from this link :

MCE2005 MPEG-2 Decoder

- Recommended MPEG-2 Decoders :

NVIDIA PureVideo Decoder 1.02-185 or later

- Use the Windows XP Video Decoder Checkup Utility to verify and set the decoder for Microsoft Media Center

JP2 should be set to "1-2 Disable".

If the "active DVB-T antenna" is used;

and the "active DVB-T antenna" is the one without an extra external power supply,

the 5V power supply for "active DVB-T antenna" can be provided by DTV1000 card by setting the JP2 to "2-3 Enable".

..... Be careful if the JP2 is set to 2-3.
