2. Installing the WinTV-HVR board
To install, switch off the computer and remove the computer cover.
The manufacturer of your PC supplies instructions on removing the PC
cover.
N ote: Your PC could be damaged by electrostatic discharge.
Avoid this by contacting the earthed chassis of your PC,
before you open it or touch the PCI card.
● Locate a free PCI slot (a short white slot). Unscrew and remove the
meta cover plate which covers the back of the empty slot.
●
Plug the WinTV-HVR board into the PCI slot, and screw the WinTV-
HVR metal cover plate to the PC.
3. Connections of the WinTV-HVR-3000 board
With the HVR you can watch and record analog TV, DVB-Terrestrial and
DVB-Satellite channels. You can also connect sources via the composi-
te and S-Video inputs and listen to FM Radio as well.
You can now connect the leads provided to the WinTV-HVR-3000 in
the following order.
FM FM Radio-Antenna
TV TV-Antenna
SAT SAT-Cable from the LNB of your satellite dish
S-VIDEO IN S-Video-Input *
LINE IN Stereo-Audio-Input, from the output of your source
IR Input for the Infra-red-Sensor
N ote: for using a RCA Yellow Phono composite input you
must use the supplied S-Video to composite adapter.
4. WinTV-HVR-3000 DVB reception advice
DVB-T
Please ensure that you have a suitable TV aerial connected to the
WinTV card. You should then ensure you are located in a area that
supports Digital Terrestrial TV by visiting:
www.dtg.org.uk/retailer/coverage.html and entering your post code.
If your area does have digital Terrestrial TV coverage, please check
your TV antenna as most antenna's that are over 8 years old may not
support the Digital Terrestrial TV broadcasts and you may need to
update yours to a 'Wideband or Highgain' antenna.
DVB-S
Please ensure that your satellite dish is correctly aligned and the Sat
cable is connectly directly from the LNB and not via a set top box.

Pause Buffer
The Pause buffer is space on your hard disk where video is stored
during the Pause mode. The maximum amount of time which your TV
program can be delayed is dependent upon how much storage space
you have set for the Pause buffer.
Pause
Clicking the Pause button or OTP button causes WinTV2000 to
start recording into WinTV's Replay Buffer. It takes about 10 seconds for
the Replay Buffer to be initialized and for Pause to become effective.
Unclicking the Pause button will cause the audio/video program to start
playing from the point where the button was originally clicked.
Most WinTV2000 functions are active while in the Pause or Pause Live
mode. For example, you can change volume, resize the TV window, go
into "no-title mode", etc.
While in Pause mode, the Video Position bar shows the amount of the
Replay Buffer which is filled with video. For example, if the Video
Position indicator shows halfway, it means that half of the Replay
Buffer is filled. If you find you cannot Pause as many minutes as you
would like, increase the size of the Replay Buffer.
While in Pause mode, the A/V stream is always saved in the Replay
Buffer. To stop saving the A/V stream in the Replay Buffer, you must
exit the Pause mode by clicking TV mode.
Replay button
While in the Pause mode, hitting the Replay button acts like the
Instant Replay you see on TV broadcast sporting events: the
audio/video goes back in time and you repeat what you have previous-
ly seen. Each click of the Replay button causes audio/video to go back
10 seconds. For example, if you want to repeat the audio/video you
saw 10 seconds ago, you would click the Replay button once. If you
want to see the video you saw one minute ago, you would need to
click the Replay button six times.
For extended replay times, you might find it more convenient to grab
the Video Position indicator control bar and move it to the left. Once
you let the control bar go, audio/video starts to play (it might take a
few seconds for the WinTV2000 application to start playing).
You might have to move the Video Position indicator to the left and
right to find the desired spot to start replaying audio/video.
While Replaying, your audio/video program continues to be recorded
in the Replay Buffer. Therefore, if you have clicked the Replay button 3
times (so that you are replaying the audio/video seen 30 seconds ago),
the video you see in the WinTV window will be 30 seconds behind the
"live" audio/video program.
Skip ahead button
Clicking the Skip button will skip the video ahead 10 seconds.
Rewind button
Clicking the Rewind button while playing video will rewind the
recorded video. Clicking the Rewind button again will continue the
playing.

ple: 27) and WinTV2000 will tune to that channel. If the entered chan-
nel does not exist, you will see a black window.

9. Using a external source
If you are using a external source like a Hi-8 Camcorder, Video recor-
der etc, then you will need to connect via the S-Video/Composite for
the Video picture and Line-Input for the sound.
If you are using a Scart to composite (RCA Yellow phono) lead, please
ensure that the signal is being sent in the correct direction from the
Scart lead to the phono connection. A scart to S-Video lead, in most
cases, will not work correctly and will only give you a black and white
picture.
Configuring a external source in WinTV2000
In the WinTV2000 application click the Menu, suite manager and sour-
ces. To add the S-Video or Composite channel highlight the entry and
then select the Video Format from the drop down list.
N ote: Pal BGHIDK is the commonly used format in Europe.
Type in a channel "Name" e.g. Video and a Description and then click
on "Save" the channel will now be added and if you click on Close you
will be returned back to the main TV viewing window.

on will "wake up" at the desired time and tuned to the desired channel.
After installation, WinTV-Scheduler can be found by going to Start /
Program Files / Hauppauge WinTV.
WinTV-Scheduler works by using the Windows Task Scheduler to
launch WinTV at the chosen time. WinTV-Scheduler sets up a com-
mand line in Task Scheduler to run WinTV2000, specifying a TV chan-
nel and a length of time to record.
To set up an event for timed watching or recording, run WinTV-
Scheduler and click on the Add Program.
