Pinnacle 7010x support

[Dvid]

I know this is an old chestnut, but does anyone have any success with the DVB-S tuners on the Pinnacle 7010x card using SageTV on WHS?

I have searched the forum, as a result of which I installed the Blackgold BGT3540 drivers, but Sage will still only recognise the card's "7162 BDA Analogue Capture #1" and #2 tuners.

I installed DVBViewerPro and that recognises and uses the DVB-S tuners perfectly.

Any ideas?
Thanks.

The non-support is particularly annoying as this tuner works well in Windows Media Center as it was the particular tuner card that Microsoft used for all the beta testing of DVB-S support. I also have about 5 or 6 of these cards so would really appreciate support:-)

Have a try of this product LM DVB Smart Recorder
I had a go with DVBE4sage but it doesnt work well with WHS so im hoping that smart recorder does. I have just taken out my 7010 as i wasnt even using the DVB-T tuners on it as they were a bit unreliable too. I'll be putting it back in if this works.

Thanks for that link. It looks interesting & I rate Stephane's software & support very highly.
