If I had a nickle for every time my fingers don't obey my brain.......

I'm still hoping to find a good multipurpose video input device: Digital TV, Analog TV, Baseband video (S-VHS and/or RCA plugs); all with recording scheduler.

I've had good luck with this tuner. I'm sure there may be newer hardware that is better, but it has served me quite well.

What version program did you install and what driver to get it to work in win 8? The only thing I got to install was ver 3.2.0.4. It installs, but the channel manager is greyed out so I can't scan for channels. It will only start in File source and will not allow to go to Digital TV source.

Anyone have any ideas? Anyone else have any luck making Onair GT tuner work in Win 8?

04If you install the driver and program (3204_Beta) using this method:

it will work. I have my Windows 8 media center working just fine with the autumn wave tuner.

I've got Windows 8 64bit installed with the 3.2.0.4 driver installed, but Windows Media Player only seems to want to set up the analog cable no option for QAM channels (which are available). It's like Windows Media Center only sees the analog tuner?

Anyone else run across this?

Thanks!

QAM channels work fine for me in windows 8 x64 media center using the autumn wave tuner. Have you tried the native on air GT program .. and set the tuner to scan for Digital Channels?

When I run the native program everything works great, I have both analog and digital QAM channels. The screenshot shows the picture as all black, but there is actually real TV going on there.


After exiting the native program, I bring up Windows Media Center (which I have never used before unfortunately and don't know very well) and do a channel scan it doesn't find any channels I get the following screen:


So I try to set things up manually and it asks me to select my Analog Cable provider (even though my provider in the list shows digital)



I also tried to go thru the Add Missing Channels menu. I've seen other people's screenshots that have a "Add QAM Channel" option, but mine looks like this:


which leads to Media Center trying to add Digital OTA channels:


So I don't know if I have something wrong where Media Center doesn't think I have a digital/QAM tuner, or I just don't know how to use Media Center.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
