Sage Stopped working with LiveTV

jrog · #1 01-08-2008, 07:18 PM

My setup is Windows Server 2003 x64, HD Media Extender, HDHomerun.

I have had this all working beautifully, but as of late last night, I can't watch live TV with Sage. I can use the HDHomerun tools and play the channels with VLC, but when I go to sage and tune a channel, it just sits there with a black screen. In the channel setup, it says no signal, but the configuration is still the same. I have rebooted everything, and it's still a problem. I can playback anything that is recorded fine, but nothing new. What should I do first?

Thanks,

jrog

I think I have this issue now too... only on my OTA HD channels (even with the HD Extender). I'm not sure what's happened, it worked fine just a couple days ago...

Still records fine... and I can watch live TV if it's a scheduled recording - but I can't tune in live TV with the guide.

I had upgraded the HDHomerun software over the weekend, and the setup is a little different that it was before. Weird part is it worked a few days just fine. I ended up going in my channel lineup in HDHomerun Setup, and under advanced, I added the channel numbers that match my guide. For example, Fox WFXTDT for me, is channel 825 in the guide, and channel 44-84-7 as far as HDHomerun is concerned. Adding that 825 to HDHomerun, and leaving my previously setup channel guide in Sage ended up working out. It looked like the Sage was telling the HDHomerun what to do, and it didn't know anymore what that meant. Kind of annoying to have to put both numbers in both systems as a cross reference, but that's what triggered it to work for me.

I just upgraded to 6.3.5 today from 6.2 and am experiencing the same thing right now with my two tuners - AverMedia A180 and the Hauppauge 1600..... Any thoughts anyone?

Just more info.... I can select an HD show to record, that's on right now, and then can watch it.

Well, I've narrowed it down a little further. The A180 still works fine, however the HVR-1600 doesn't seem to. Hmmm..
