I am running Windows XP with SageTV 4.1.5. I have 1 WinTV-PVR 150 tunner with the ir blaster and remote all working fine (not using ir blaster).

Now, I bought 2nd WinTV-PVR 150 tunner (from SageTV) and after installing it, Windows XP sees it and everything is fine - no conficts. But when I tell SageTV server to add the new 2nd tunner, it sees it, but no image is displayed in the configuration process. I have both tunners hooked up to cable.

I took out the original working tunner (software/hardware), and SageTV still sees no image on the new tunner. The tunner is there, just no picture.

Any ideas?

IIRC, I've seen that before, no image in the configuration preview. I just forced my way past it (don't remember how) and just went ahead and finished the wizard. Worked fine.

Yes-sometimes that hapeens on a new tuner that has never been tuned. Just click continue and finish the setup. Everything will be fine.

Ok, I did that and no cigar. I get "blank/dark" recordings :(

So one tunner works ok, the other one just shows blank. No signal says SageTV when I trie to watch live TV.

Should I re-install SageTV with the new WinTV card first?
