C: Program Files or Program Files (x86). Also please go to this folder which is a hidden folder and delete the Hauppauge folder: C: ProgramData Information on how to show hidden folders in Windows: Show Hidden Files and Folders in Windows 7, 8.x, 10, or Vista. Once you do this you can reinstall Hauppauge WinTV with latest version from website.

Then click on the “ All Channels' tab and right click on the channel you wish to edit. Click Details. Change the Preset number to the number you want.

Where can I find my recorded files?

TV Signal strength. If the TV signal strength is on the edge of being too low, you might see either a black screen where the live TV picture should be, or your live TV picture might be choppy. Also, be sure that the incoming signal from your video source is working properly. Graphic display adapter related: The video graphics acceleration mode can cause choppy live video or possibly cause a black screen where the live TV picture should be. To optimize the video graphics mode, in the WinTV v7 application go to Settings and look under Video Renderer. EVR is the default setting.

Try VMR 7, VMR 9, or overlay for better results. You may also try placing a check mark in “Use hardware acceleration when possible”.

If there is still no improvement, enabling extended logging in WinTV and emailing the log files to tech support will help in troubleshooting the problem. (To obtain extended logs, first go to Settings/Advanced options.

Enable extended logging, exit WinTV and reopen it for the change to take effect). What video format will WinTV record in? When recording digital TV, all recordings are made in whatever format your digital TV is being transmitted in. For example, ATSC is transmitted as MPEG-2 and therefore WinTV recordings will be MPEG-2. The files will be.TS files. When recording from analog video or analog TV, WinTV will record MPEG-2 video using a.TS format.

To edit your videos, you can use any software editor that can work with.TS files or MPEG-2 files. Here are a few examples.

Ulead DVD MovieFactory Womble MPEG-VCR ArcSoft Total Media Extreme VideoReDo TVSuite What file size will the recorded videos be? Digital Broadcasts (ATSC or QAM) The file size of a digital signal capture depends on the bitrate of the digital signal. The bitrate is set by the broadcaster and cannot be user configured. Bitrates for digital signals can range anywhere from about 1.2 Mbits/sec up to 19.3 Mbits/sec.

Most of the time these bitrates are variable and not constant. Capture sizes for ATSC & QAM recordings range from approximately 1.7 Gigabytes per hour up to 8.3 Gigabytes per hour. Analog TV or analog video The WinTV application converts analog signals to digital in order to record. There are four recording profiles.

The following list shows recording file sizes for burning to 4.3Gb DVD: Best - Approx 1 Hour+ Better - Approx 1 1/2 Hours Good - Approx 2 Hours Fair - Approx 3 Hours How do I scan for FM radio channels? And once I have scanned for FM radio, how do I find these radio stations in WinTV v7? On those WinTV products with FM radio, you can scan for FM radio channels by clicking the Setup button (gear button) and then clicking on the Device tab. Choose your WinTV product, and then click Tuner setup. Click Analog FM radio and then Scan. Once you have scanned for and found FM radio stations, you can listen to FM radio in WinTV v7.

To select a channel, Right Click on the live WinTV v7 window to bring up the Option menu, and then click Find channel. Your FM radio channels can be found at the bottom of the channel list. How can I see the WinTV v7 channel list all the time? Making connections to your WinTV Here is a chart which shows some of the things you need to know about each type of connection. Here are some common models (please order by model number or product code): Antenna Cable or satellite TV set top box RF output Cable or satellite TV set top box A/V output Cable TV wire from the wall Which type of TV can this connection be used with?

Over-the-air TV Cable or satellite TV box Cable or satellite TV box Cable TV What types of video do I select when scanning for channels in the WinTV application (Device Setup Wizard)? Digital ATSC Analog TV External inputs (S-Video or Composite video) Digital QAM plus Analog TV (if available in your WinTV tuner) What remote control do I use to change channels? WinTV remote control Remote control from your set top box Remote control from your set top box WinTV remote control Notes You can use a roof top antenna for best reception. Most set top boxes allow you to switch to Channel 3 or 4. When you scan with WinTV, it will pick up the TV signal on the correct channel. Some satellite receivers use channels 60, 70 or 73. But when you scan for Analog TV channels, WinTV will pick up whatever channel is being used by your set top box.

Most set top boxes have A/V connections on the back, which can go into the WinTV's A/V input. Some cable TV networks transmit analog TV channels, so we recommend scanning for both Clear QAM and analog TV. Not all cable TV networks transmit clear QAM.

Check with your local cable TV operator for the availability of clear QAM in your area.

A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source.

Take a look after a few minutes if the drivers are installed automatically properly under Sound Video and Game Controllers.

If you've recently purchased a TV QAM tuner from Hauppauge and it came with a CD containing drivers and apps, do not throw it away thinking you can get the latest from their website. I recently had a mega clear out of all sorts of old CD's including about a dozen Hauppauge CD's for the various Hauppauge HW I have owned or still use. Hauppauge in their 'wisdom' now require you to have the original CD available if you wish to upgrade to latest apps. So I was caught out! If you don't have the CD they'll sell you a replacement:-( Along with others I posted my distaste at this policy on their UK support forum - but my post was deleted as were other peoples - seems Hauppauge doesn't want to listen or comment to their customers who pay their wages. This is a shame as I had recently been very impressed by their warranty service when one of my HVR-1600's started to fail. Any suggestions as to alternate vendors who don't have such a retarded policy re drivers and apps?

Any suggestions as to alternate vendors who don't have such a retarded policy re drivers and apps? If have a Hauppauge CD just point it to the CD as long is fair new one with ver 6 on it just beware there are two CD type one MCE ver which has no apps I all ready post this on shspvr forum. I just look on UK forum I see lot people other ask about it you may want look a round they may move it in to one of other post.

Just an FYI - Hauppauge goofballs still sticking with this stupid policy. However thanks to the post above everything still works great. Download the RARs and EXE self extractor. Extract to a folder. Build an ISO file with the contents of the folder OR Burn a CD with the contents of the folder. Either way make sure the label is HCW4826351PPH Then insert or mount the disk to your drive and voila you can install WINTV 7 automatically!!!!!!

And to the user above who dissed the Hauppauge units. These are perfect for extraction of rare video from a household PVR. Or just clips of anything standard TV. Spring 2013 everything works great and it still doesn't matter if you lost your silly Hauppauge CD. THANKS SHS THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST 10$ I HAVE EVER SAVED!!!!! Thanks for the ISO.

I already bought a CD and code, but can use it for the next computer for sure. I finally decided it was worth $10, since Windows 10 doesn't come with Media Center, and there were features in WinTV 8 that I found most useful (like streaming), not just a viewer and the driver.

Since I could get the driver for free, no hard feelings towards Hauppauge. Considering how much I paid for the card ($3.99) I'm quite content If you need help getting into your TV service menu or anything, I'll return the favor. I built an IR receiver / decoder / transmitter out of an Arduino, an IR photo sensor and LED.

Hooks up to the USB to a serial console, working on my remote program. I like this card, Windows 10 doesn't bitch as much as with my TV Wonder 650 (Got a USB, a PCI, and a PCIe), but it's got hardware encoding which is nice. They stopped supporting it at Vista, and you gotta 'Mickey-mouse' it to work with 10. Anyone have any ideas?
