I have a PC pieced together with salvaged parts from a couple other builds. XP Professional SP3 installed.
Just installed a PCI-E Dual Hybrid TV card, Asus My Cinema-EHD3-100, Windows finds it OK, drivers install OK, Cyberlink 'TV Enhance' installed from CD. Disconnected coax from TV and connected to jack on card, scans for channels and doesn't find a single one (TV finds a few dozen with antenna at current position).
Am I missing something obvious? Do I need MCE for this card to function?

When you say coax what do you mean? Do you have cable? Antenna? If cable what provider? You don't need WMC for that tuner...just the right software and settings. If you have cable it's possible the TV is picking up QAM stations that are not supported in the Cyberlink software. Since you're on XP you can't use MCE unless you buy Win7 or wait till the 29th and try the Win8 beta if it includes Media Center. Other software programs that support QAM and run on XP are MediaPortal,GBPvr and BeyondTV. I'm sure there are a few others that will work.

Actually dobyken, XP had a addon for MCE, Vista has MCE, so no need to jump to 7 if they do not want to. 8 I would not touch it with a ten foot pole.
No, the OP left out some critical info on what this coax is hooked up to, and if they went through the settings for the software.

To my knowledge there's no 'Addon' XP Media Center..you had to get the XP media center with the purchase of a PC. Perhaps towards the end they let you buy the XP MCE package but I don't remember it ever being available as an separate program. I don't think you can still buy Vista so unless he has a copy laying around Win 7 or Win 8 beta are the only MCE choices. Even though I use Linux, Myth and XBMC on my main media center...it's not for everyone. I'll reserve judgment on 8 until after I play with it in a dual boot environment.

Since the original poster said that the coax was connected and that the tv found several stations with the antenna in the current position, I guess he is trying to get over the air signals from local stations. If that is the case, it is possible that his software settings are incorrect. If he is set to scan for cable channels when connected to an antenna he would not get anything (and vice versa).
Check the software you are using and insure that you are scanning for the right type of signal.
Good luck.

How did I miss that? I must have gotten up too early this morning or he must have added that after I replied then he hacked the forum to remove the edit tag..yeah that's it. Since it's a card that supports NTSC,ATSC and QAM and if it's on the antenna then the scan needs to be for ATSC. There are very few NTSC stations left in the U.S. - Mostly low power independents and translators. I think we have 3-4 in the Tampa area.

dobyken, actually you could buy the OEM by purchasing a computer part, not by buying the whole computer.

Windows XP MCE will only work with certain BIOSes. There is a hack to flash your BIOS to contain the codes to make XP MCE work. It won't work on just any computer, like 7 does.
6 TV's in the house on FiOS and we only pay $4.99/month to connect them all!!! Power to the CableCard and WMC7!!!

Not true. XP MCE had no BIOS dependency at all, however, it was not publicly available, and was only available as an OEM purchase. The BIOS dependancy was introduced with Vista MC and only came into play when a CableCARD tuner was introduced to the equation.

Sorry for the vague meanings. Yes I am scanning for OTA stations, there should be a few dozen. The coax is connected to an antenna only.
The software has selections for 'Analog', Cable / QAM, and digital. I have tried several avenues, like the 'wizard' that walks you through as well as 'manual' methods. I even tried the 'analog' setting just to see if it found an NTSC broadcaster out there (I believe we still have a couple, but they are weak signals). We have some ATSC channels you can get with rabbit ears, and my coax is connected to an amplified deep-fringe directional antenna. I get great reception most of the time on other tuners.
Is there a 3rd party or share-ware tuner out there I can try in place of Cyberlink PowerCinenma TV Enhance? I can't find any patches or upgrades on their website, I can't even find a reference to 'TV Enhance'.

I found Cyberlink's trial version & downloaded. Same result. Tried the coax in another TV and the channels all came in fine. Completely powered down the rig (turned off rocker switch on power supply) and opened up, re-seated the card. Powered back on and started PowerCinema again, this time the scan is working. The picture looks OK for late afternoon soap operas, using HDMI out of mobo-resident graphics.
Not getting nearly as many channels as other tuners - it may be the gale force winds here. The Samsung on the same antenna is getting 8 of 10 bars on channels this one doesn't even see. The software doesn't have any option to add channels - every time it scans it starts from scratch.
Well at least now I can decide 1) Do I want to shell out $50 for the PowerCinema, 2) Are my 1st gen SATA drives likely to suffice for recording . . .

I would pay $100 for Win 7 before paying $50 for Power Cinema but that's just my opinion. You can wait a few days and see if the Win8 beta includes Media Center which would give you a free option to test things out.
If you want to stay with XP try out the BeyondTV trial. Although no longer actively supported it still works well. MediaPortal is good but the TV setup can be daunting for some. All of the above allow you to scan for additional stations and add to what you already have. My Vizeo TV tuner replaces previous scans and it was crazy trying to turn the antenna during a scan in an attempt to get all the stations. As for your drives...they should work fine for recording as long as they're big enough...HD takes about 8gb and hour.

Downloaded the BeyondTV trial and it works remarkably better than the Cyberlink software. I was about ready to RMA the Asus tuner card. I am not having as much luck with the addidng channels - maybe this isn't part of the free version? I did find the HTML interface.
I seem to be getting the '-1' stations but software is labeling the '-2' and higher as 'duplicate'. They are not - e.g. my local ABC is '35-1' and CBS is '35-2'. Does it automatically pick e.g. the 'strongest' network affiliate and disable the others?
Update: Checking the recording quality to the old 1.5 Ghz-sec SATA drive & it is excellent.
So is MCE or Windows 7 the only way to get the IR remotes to function? The IR receiver that shipped with the Asus tuner card is a PN OVU412000/00 which does generate some hits on a google search, but no drivers for XP. Nothing on the CD that shipped with the card.

Went to their forums & figured it out. Not as easy as TV (you have to create a new lineup & re-scan, so far as I can tell).
