    Default Dazzle 71E

    Hi All,

    I just purchased a Dazzle 71E (Pinnacle) USB FreeView tuner and I am having trouble getting Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 to recognise it.

    I have installed the drivers and the tuners software, and I can watch TV via its own software, but I want to use it with the Media Center interface.

    I have looked on the box and it says it is compatible with media center.

    If you have any ideas I would be very grateful.

    -- Matt

    Thank you for your help, everyone.

    I have, but just to be sure i'm re-downloading the TVCenterPro software and re-installing it.

    Hi,

    I have tried everything, if you still have ideas for my Media Center problem please tell me, but I now want to use a 3rd Party Program, similar to Media Center. I have tried MediaPortal (didn't work) and GB-PVR, which also did not work.

    Thank you
