Dear Member,

You have done what actually anyone would do after buying a new hardware.
1.See the resolution of your Laptop. if it is more than 1024*768 reduce it.
2.Did you buy the correct USB TV Box for Laptops?There are two categories.
3.Load the correct driver manually.
Do not use the Autorun Facility.
See if the System is set to PAL not NTSC or Secam.
I think it will work.

Thanks RAHUL
I checked the things as you said and able to obtain only cable tv
But my problem is now how to see Doordarshan's free TV Channels DD1 and DD news on the tvr 2.0 software
Whenever I connect cable tv CABLE to the tv box 2.0 I am able to see cable channels
But whenever I connect a simple antenna (Circuler one) to the TV box I am not able to see any free to air channels like dd 1 ddnews.
Can anybody guide me in this regard?

Dear Member,

To receive TV chanells from DD :
1.Use co-axial cable available in TV shops for TV(Bit xpensive)
2.Or buy a long feeder cable ,keep the antenna (Yagi type) on your roof.
connect a baloon jack(purchased from Chandni Rs.10/-) at the end of the feeder to your TV Card.
Open your software Honestech.
goto settings.
select antenna.
scan for channells.
finished. you will see all free channels working.

Hi

I am staying in Noida(Delhi)
I have the same TV tuner box , It is working with vista but my problem is it is not able to get all cahnnels , The cable here shows nearly 90 channels but the TV tuner is able to detect only 60 channels , also i am not able to see any finetune option in the TV software to tune channels manually .

Does anyone know the solution..

Dear Anup,

The driver which you have installed is the one made for XP.
The driver which is required for your system is different.
I am attaching a driver for your system, Download this & extract it to a folder then uninstall the earlier driver ,then restart the computer while prompted install fro the location where you saved this files.
Rahul
Any problem let me know.

Hi Rahul
Thanks for the reply ,
But I was able to solve the problem , the problem was I selected the option T.V insteda of CATV in the settings , When I selected option CATV & scanned the channels again I was able to get all the channels .
