Tv tuner card doesnt capture tv turns on the camera on laptop

Forum Systems : Homebuilt Tv tuner card doesnt capture tv turns on the camera on laptop

Hello,
i have a odyssey tv tuner card. i lost the installation cd i got with it. so i downloaded ht tv plus 4.0 gold software from the net to run tv on my laptop. But every time i run the application, it just turns on the camera on my laptop and doesn't display any channels.
I am not sure where the fault is?

I've never used the program, but I would venture a guess that there's somewhere in the options that you can set the device that it uses to display the video. Currently, it's probably set to your onboard camera. You need to change the setting to the TV tuner card to get it to display the video coming in from it.

I'd Google around and see if you can find instructions on how to do that with the program you're using.
