Title: G-rex+Tvcard+Visionary
Post by: lillPiP on November 17, 2005, 03:53:56 PM: I have A G-rex PCI 4000D and a Terratec TValue tvcard and Visionary-software. The problem is that the system hangs when starting the software. Do I must have a PCI GFX or will my CV64/3D+SD do fine?
The chipset on the Terratec TValue is a BT848.
I have Superlayers at ON.

I have downloaded Visionary from your website.

BUT, I can't get the tuner to work. Just the first cm's in top of the screen shows something like the tv does when not having a channel fixed. The composite do work actually.

Just matching chip and tuner don't seam to be enough, you even have to have a particular revision of that card.
