MEDIABOX-300 AND AVERMEDIA MEDIATV NO LONGER WORKS

[westbourneswansea]

We bought a mediaBOX-300 with the Avermedia Hybrid USB but are having issues getting it to work. When we load the TV into the signage player it loads the full Avermedia HD program fullscreen rather than just TV in the screen division.

Have spoken to support who basically blaming an update of AVer MEdiacenter for the problems version 1.7.9

Wondering if anyone else is having similar problems or if they have an order install file for mediacenter

Any help or suggestions in the meantime would be great

WinTV is what I am now using as an alternative.

When this happens it is usually an issue with the TV resolution and campaign resolution. So please make sure these 2 match.

Saner Media, I am curious. Does that WinTV also work with the Avermedia Hybrid Q? Since it is software from haupage if i'm correct. Or do you use live tv sticks from haupage? To be clear, I use the USB solution, because my players are very small and do not have pcie.

I could not get the aver media to work as I wanted to (start composite video playing immediately without having to click start), so I bought the hauppauge usb tuner with the WinTV software. It does exactly what I want, when I want... Very nice.
Aver Media said they do not support auto play anymore. Surprising!

Hello Saner Media,
could you share the name of the hauppauge usb tuner Model? I have to accomplish a campaign with live tv. I´m trying with Aver Media and no results.

We are working with windows 7 NUC i3 machines, do you think could work?

Thanks in advance

[Saner Media]

I am using the Intel NUC i3 with the Hauppauge! Hybrid TV Stick 950Q. These are working in 5 of my Harvey's/Swiss Chalet locations right now. All versions of WINTV software seem to work, including the latest release. You just have to set up the external app to point to WINTV obviously.

Hello - I purchased a couple of these WinTV-HVR-950 -- and I got them to open by calling the WinTV7.exe application, but they are not staying in the designated channel.

Any ideas?

I've tried setting to full screen, but that goes full screen
On restart, same experience.

[admin]

we are you using the WinTV-HVR-950? you must use AverMedia...

[justadsguy]

We were trying an alternative.
According to this forum topic, the other was used with some success.

ADMIN: Did you update the API to support Avermedia's latest version?

[admin]

actually we are in the process of developing a new SignagePlayer with an embedded exe using the AverMedia SDK, so no external app will be needed, soon....

[ANOOP]

I hope this exe will work in all the windows systems and not only on the mediasignage boxes

[JMH]

I'm hoping with you ANOOP! That will encourage me to buy even more AverMedia sticks from MediaSignage! 

[admin]

yes it will....

[JMH]

Great, this will greatly improve the reliability of live-tv players!
