Are they wavy lines throughout the picture or are they just wavy on the side? Waving picture is usually caused by poor power supply filtering. Wavy lines throughout the picture are caused by interference. Try moving the device away from the computer with an extension USB cable it may be picking up interference from the surrounding electronic devices. It could also be defective.

OK Guys - i fixed it. it s a known problem:
------------------------- Absturz von WinTV in Modul ntdll.dll im Sat-Suchlauf Laden Sie ntfix2.exe herunter, führen Sie diese aus und gehen Sie nach folgender Anleitung vor:
Stellen Sie sicher, dass WinTV beendet ist.
Stellen Sie sicher dass der EPG-Dienst beendet ist, falls Sie diesen installiert haben
(rechts unten in der Startleiste, klicken Sie mit der rechten Maustaste auf das blaue Symbol und auf "Exit").

Führen Sie die Datei ntfix.cmd aus.
Die Dateien werden nach C:\Hauppauge\ntfix entpackt.
Falls gemeldet wird, dass 0 Dateien kopiert wurden, starten Sie Ihr Betriebssystem im Abgesicherten Modus (F8 vor dem Start drücken) und führen Sie die Datei ntfix.cmd erneut aus.
Alternativ können Sie die aktualisierte Transponderliste satellites.exe herunterladen, und diese exe-Datei ausführen, um das Problem zu beheben.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

it works :-)

SOURCE: No color from VHS on DVD/VHS player

There may be an input selection between Composite and S-Video that needs to be toggled in your Hauppauge software.

Your Hauppauge card may also be in the wrong signal format mode (NTSC or PAL). Your source device and your Hauppauge card need to be in the same mode (both NTSC or both PAL) for the capture to work properly.

If your NV-VP33 is a SCART output, then you may need to check your SCART adapter and your device as not all devices output both S-Video (Y/C - two signals) and Composite (CVBS - one signal) type signals.

If your SCART adapter has both Composite and S-Video outputs, try the other one.

And finally... if you're playing an NTSC tape/DVD in a PAL player, it doesn't mean the output is true NTSC 3.58. Most times it's NTSC 4.43 which is OK for TVs, but NOT okay for video capture devices. Video capture devices need true NTSC 3.58 to sync the color carrier properly.

I have a Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1600. I have a comcast digital box hooked up to my PC. Signal is bad and black and white media. I installed the "current" driver two weeks ago (mid October) Work great! We had to perform a PC recovery. I downloaded the "current" driver. Got weak signal and black and white only.

SOURCE: WinTV-HVR-1600 Tuner card to DishNetwork receiver

Yes, but what it can connect to depends on what Dish DVR you have. The newer, HD ones only have HDMI, S-Video, and that 5-split coax as outputs for the main TV since you only get these box's if you have and HDTV.

This is because regular old coaxial is no longer good enough for them. This means you must connect the newer DVR's to the S-Video input on the Hauppauge1600 since it is the only input to the card the Dish DVR supports.

If your DVR is older and has the coax out, you can use that and connect it to the Hauppauge analog input.

I need the drivers for windows7 for my wintv-hvr950q

Hi.
Here is the link to the hauppauge website for your model of wintv.

It has all the drivers and software that goes to it, just select which ones you want, and download and install it, and then restart the computer.

When it reboots, it should automatically install the device the resst of the way, and then you should be good to go.

I hope this helps, and good luck !

Wintv 2000

From the Hauppauge website:

Error Messages when attempting to run WinTV32 or WinTV2000:
Error messages such as: "Error. Cannot locate capture filter", "Cannot build filtergraph", "Error connecting Vcap and HCWCap filters", "Error connecting preview pin" can be caused by bad driver installations. Run the latest driver on the Hauppauge WinTV-USB technical support page to fix this. This new driver runs HCWCLEAR first, and then automatically reinstalls the driver.
Aternatively you may receive an 'Initialization error HTV=## '. Please look in the Device manager to see if the Hauppauge WinTV USB is listed correctly in the Device Manager. If it is not listed properly or if it has a Yellow mark on it, the drivers should be reinstalled.
Also, look under Universal Serial Bus controllers in Device Manager and be sure that the "Universal serial bus controller" is listed correctly(not disabled) as well as the USB root hub. If disabled, re-enable, and reboot.
