Svideo input "channel"

[EmuZombie]

Okay, so my setup consists of two sources, one with a tuner with channels 2-99 and a second with the svideo input of my card. I have added it as a single channel (channel 1).

I am able to tune to it, and view it just fine. However, what I would like to do is create a default show called S-Video in the guide at every 30 minutes. Right now it's set up with No Data for every 2 hours. Does anyone know how I would go about doing this?

Did you ever figure this one out? I have the same problem recording shows off my S-Video input.

Ditto same boat here.

I am also in this same boat ("2 hr no data"). 30 min shows (for recording purposes, would be better).

Another question.... I am using a dual tuner PVR 500 card. I use the composite input of this card for my security cams (so they can be displayed in SageTV... say on channel #1).

The only way I have been able to do this (with my PVR 500 card) is to set one of the dual tuners to "composite in" rather than "TV Tuner". In other words, I lose one of my tuners. Is there another way to do this WITHOUT loosing the use of the tuner?

On my PVR 500s I do as you discribed but have both listed in the video sources.


I can tune 2 analog channels or 1 analog and the composite input.


There is no way around that, the baseband input needs an encoder. However it is only used when requested otherwise the analog tuner still works as normal.
