I have two dvb-t 100 cards running in my system, if i disable one of them i
am able to pick up channels in xp media centre 2005, but if both are enabled
it will not pick up any channels (Freeview) as it will not support analogue
tv.

any ideas??

MCE does not support both tuners on any hybrid tuner cards (those with both
an analog and a digital tuner on them). Also if you have two DVB-T cards
they both must use the same EPG as you have no control over which one it
will use when you select a channel it will use whichever card is not in use.
There is a registry change yu can make to determine which one it uses first
but I do not have the details on it.
One of the European members of this Newsgroup can probably provide you more
details concering your particular cards.

I know that, it will not find any channels at all when it is selected to two
tuners instead of only the one, and therefore will not use the two tuners,
these tuners only use freeview and are not hybrid cards. although i have seen
freeview and analogue hybrid cards working fine.

I have a twin digital DVB card (terratec 2400i) and it's driving me
mad. Was working fine when I first got it, and now the bl00dy thing
keeps telling me it has no tv signal, it's crap. The mce is useless...
the aerial is fine, and the thing is intermittent.. anyone know of a
known fault with mce 2005 ? I upgraded have the roll up etc etc..
drivers are the latest from terratec's site (the drivers shipped with
it wouldn't even work!). Both digital tuners use the same EPG.. i've
tried deleting the EPG as I know it can get corrupted, I reinstalled
the drivers, I don't want to rebuild the whole thing, so if anyone has
any ideas I would be more than grateful !!!!

Aaaaaaaaarggggghhhh !
