I recently bought myself a USB WinTV external TV converter. While I
can get good tuner reception, I cannot get it to recognise a composite
input.

It has an S-Video connector on one side, and a composite to s-video
adaptor supplied. Only in the WinTV 2K software, the S-Video option
remains greyed out. In the software there are an ext 1 and ext 2
source - if I select these, I sometimes get a single frame from the
video source, which is not then updated - and is very blurry and
sometimes mono or mostly I get a blank screen. I have tested the video
source elsewhere - it is fine.

I have it plugged into a motherboard USB port on a box running Windows
XP (SP2), with 512 Mb Ram, a Socket 754 AMD Sempron 2800+ processor,
NForce 250 chipset on Gigabyte motherboard.

I am running the most recent Hauppage drivers (which are annoyingly
not signed) and WinTV software.

If you could do with any more info, feel free to ask.

Does anyone here have any ideas on getting it working?
