Hi~
I tried the drivers, but all to no avail…Windows Media Center cannot find the tuner…
I’m running Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit SP1 with a AMD Turion64 x2 Mobile Technology processor along with 2 gbs of ram…
Any help?
Thanks!

Sorry to keep bugging you man. But I just got off of a live chat with pinnacle regarding the new BETA drivers. Basically, they said that the new drivers wont work with their own software and you’d have to use Media Center. Also, when you do this, you wont be able to get Analog channels through the air or through your cable line. I thought that was pretty funny, and Im really interested in getting your drivers working with everything in vista.

Ok, Thanks. Just so I know, what viewer are you/other users using? I have tried beyondTV and MediaPortal, I havent had any luck with either. Thanks again!

if you were getting .net framework errors it’s more of a function of the viewer than my drivers.

FYI, Pinnacle has beta x64 drivers now. Check them out, they’re bundled with the latest version of their viewer.

Good luck!

Hey,
I followed everything you said and I rechecked my device manager and it shows “USB ATSC Hybrid Device” as I believe it should, but I still cant get the software that came with the Pro Stick to work. I just keep getting the .Net framework error. Should I be using a different viewer? Thanks.

Hey, I fixed the download. tks for bringing that to my attention. I recently moved servers and now the files are case sensitive.

Peace.

Do you think you could re-upload the driver pack, it seems to be missing from the server. I just bought this tuner and, having Vista x64, am SOL. Thanks for writing these.

When trying these instructions, all my system (winXP) tells me is this: “The specified location does not contain information about your hardware”. This occurs when clicking on EMBDA.INF in the 32-bit directory. Any thoughts, ideas?
