PVR 500 MCE Setup Tuner PVR-500MCE
« on: April 17, 2006, 09:39:49 am »
Trying to get the PVR-500MCE setup on Pluto .39
Everything seems good to go, except the tuner only has snow
when trying to tune in the channels of cable TV.

Error:
cx25840 1-0044: 0x0000 is not a valid video input!
tuner 1-0061: tuner type not set

How do I resolve this ?

PVR-500MCE Dual Tuner
NTSC 23552
CX25843
MPEG Encoder=- CX23416

Hi itaki

I think you may find interesting this thread:

I also had this "tuner type not set" issue with a PVR 350, and following that link you will find how I managed to solve it.
