Problem with Girder and WinTV-PlugIn

[handyman1000]

Hi!

I have got a huge problem with Girder 2.3.9 and the WinTV-PlugIn from this download-site...

The WinTV Premio (PCI) card is correctly installed. Also Girder and the plugIn. But by starting Girder I get the following error message:


Winfast 2000 Girder PlugIn Error
This function requires a video capture device based on the Brooktree (conexant) BT848 [...] chip. None could be found. Are you sure you have one?

Does anyone know what that means? I have no idea what could be wrong... :(

Thanks for help!

I also have a WinTV PCI card and i get the same message, tested with uICE and it have no problems finding and using the card.

Is your card an "Primio" or "FM"?

Perhaps that's the reason?! My card is a "Primio"...

Ok, I've got the solution! :)

I just had to install the "winfast 2000 xp"-plugin, too...

Do you have to use "winfast 2000 xp" and WINTV plugin at the same time to make it find the card?

My card is a WINTV-radio by the way.

Tried the workaround to edit the irremote.ini to generate keystrokes that girder could detect with the keyboard-plugin. But i only get the code 00000000 on all buttons on the remote.

So now i send the keystrokes directly to Zoom player and wait for some better working girderplugin for WINTV cards to appear.

Yes - exactly this way!

I have tried the same thing for an hour now, and I'm about to trash the IR part and just use the card. I've got the Hauppauge WinTV Primio TV+FM, which I know is based on the 878 chip. So why the #&%#¤" won't it work? :x

Also I have tried to install the tweaked 878 drivers, but can't get anywhere! Grrrr....

Can you tell me the DeviceID of you card?

I have expand the DeviceID search. (DeviceID 0x0369, DeviceID 0x036C)

Perhaps the plugin will find your card now.

Could i send you the new plugin to test it?

I have the same error with the 2.0 version of plugin, but it doesn't happen always, just once or twice a day... The old 1.0a worked perfectly, but i've deleted it :-?
I also have some problems with my system randomly reseting while watching tv usually, but I'm not sure if this is girder related, or just some gremlins in my system...

Hi!

On monday or tuesday I can tell you the DeviceID. Currently I'm not at home... ;)
