ASUS Live Tuner Windows XP 2

[ZimZ]

I've switch to Windows XP. Everything works fine, except for Asus Live. I get the following message:
Video decoder detecting occurs error!
Possible reasons:
1. Your display card doesn't have a video decoder
2. Your monitor or monitor driver is not proper design for I2C Bus control

My card: Asus V7100 Deluxe Combo.
Motherboard: Socket 423 P4, 850 Chipset

Anyone with a solution?

Thanks!

I've also got an ASUS 3400 but running under Win98SE. Sadly, I'm not able to get the capture drivers to work, too.
Same error as above (Device cannot start, Code 10). I'd be gald for any help or suggestions...

2000P/S
I have had luck in the past installing the asus v7700 deluxe with xp and windows 2000. I installed newest drivers from asus website (the german one mentioned above in july). Grabbed 2980 and the asuswdm. In 2000 i installed digital vcr 2.0 right off the bat with no problem.
XP
In xp, i installed the latest vid driver and asuswdm driver but, u have to install 2.1 first cause that is the only version with an xp compatible asus asv2 codec (located under device manager, sound video game controllers, video codec, right click hit properties, resource tab). If it doesnt appear at the top of the list it aint installed. Asus dvcr 2.1 is bundled with it. Just upgrade the wdm and advcr without uninstalling.
Recently purchased a asus geforce ti4600 ultra deluxe card and have tried all of the above that worked with the 7700 card without any luck. All drivers install, but under sound and video game controllers in device manager i get "error code 10 device cannot start" with the asuswdm capture driver(universal).
Anyone got a clue cause I've talked to tech support 5 times and all i get is the same install i just did, we'll call u back, or they send me the same drivers i already had.

Thanx

Something to try?? (v3400 model users...)

I have the following setup:

ASUS P2B (1.02, BIOS 1014 BETA 001)
ASUS V3400TNT/16/TV (SDRAM model, BIOS 2.04.17)
Windows XP Professional
German ASUS Drivers v29.80

I have tried installing ASUS LIVE 4.6, 4.6b2, and 4.6b5 with no luck. I have tried using WDM drivers 1.08 (nVidia), 1.08 (ASUS PAL patch), and 1.11 with no luck. Originally ASUS LIVE gave me the "no I2C" support error, but as Netfinder posted earlier, there is an "i2cinst.exe" file included in the ASUS LIVE package that fixes that problem.

As others have encountered, my "nVidia WDM Capture Driver" always errors with Code 10 ("Device cannot start&quot.

I sent an email to ASUS, and actually got a reply back the next day (today). They indicated, and here is the catch...

ASUS LIVE does not yet support Windows XP! At least no released version.

ASUS suggested I try the ASUS Digital VCR for Windows XP. I have submitted a followup clarification request because the link to their DVR software does not indicate that it supports the V3400 card. I will post again when/if they reply, clarifying whether or not v3400 cards are supported with the DVR software.

I have not yet been home to try the DVR software, but I wanted to go ahead and post this information hoping that it may help some other frustrated customers. Below is a snippit of ASUS's email with the steps to follow.

Hope it helps!

-------------- ASUS Support Reply --------------

Dear Customer,
Thanks for choosing ASUSTeK.

We have not released ASUS Live Utility software for Windows XP OS. But we have new capture software, which is called ASUS Digital VCR software version 2.2 for our VGA card. Please download it from our website as following URL:

http://download.asus.com.tw/mm_dl_menu.asp?Status=51&l1=2&l2=2&l3=3&mid=20

ASUS Digital VCR 2.2 needs the nVidia WDM capture driver installed. It is available from:

http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?PAGE=drivers

Installation Process:
1. Windows XP OS installation
2. Install Motherboard AGP driver according to the motherboard chipset.
3. Install ASUS Windows XP driver.
4. Install ASUS Digital VCR software 2.2.
5. Due to those drivers are not certificated by Windows XP, please install them anyway. After reboot, it will auto detect the new hardware and install all of WDM driver and capture driver.
6. Please open Windows Device Manager, if you can find "nvidia capture device", "nvidia audio/video crossbar", etc in "Sound, Video and Game Controller" list and without any Unknown Device, then you can run our ASUS DVCR program for testing.

I have an ASUS v3400 running under WinXP. I am getting Device cannot start, Code 10 with Detonator Drivers 29.42 and Nvidia WDM 1.08 and also 1.13.

Has anybody figured out what to do yet?

 

[Guest_imported]

On one of my machines, I'm also running Windows XP, ASUS v3400 (TNT with TV in/out). I get the Code 10 when I try to install ANY of the different versions of the WDM drivers. I haven't spent more than an hour messing with it yet, but if anyone finds the solution PLEASE post it here, it would save me (and others here) a lot of time...

 

[Guest_imported]

I think you can fix this if you run your machine in "Standard Mode" instead of "ACPI Mode" - unfortunately the machine I'm using is a dualprocessor box, so I am forced to keep it running the ACPI MultiProc Hardware Abstraction Layer... you guys with single CPU systems can probably change to Standard PC mode and get the WDM driver running. Do a complete backup before you make this change however.

 

[Guest_imported]

subhuman,

how do you change between ACPI and Standard modes?

thanks,
dane

i have a 7700 deluxe on a XP system, i cant get to the properties window to configure the display (t.v display).
any ideas?

 

[matchman]

I've now tried ASUS DigitalVCR instead of ASUS Live on my Win98Se system (with V3400). The prog doesn't find the capture drivers. I suppose it's because of the code 10 (device cannot start). Has someone found an approach to that problem??? I'd be very glad to here some solutions...

Thx, MatchMan

I finally worked it out (for the V3400) to get it going under XP. You need to install ASUS Live Version 4.6B2 (with capture driver Version 1.1.0.0) It works up to 704X576. No full screen TV overlay though. If you can,t find this version on the net, I can mail it to you. (gbeu@ozemail.com.au)

Cheers,

Jerry

did anyone find a fix for the july 19,2002 post from berserker, I have pretty much the same problem. My computer is in a dual boot mode winxp/win98se. both operating systems have the same symptoms. Dvcr will load but in TV Tuner mode there are white/grey horizontal lines running through the picture. However if I set the channel then go into composite video mode I can watch the picture. In order to change channels I have to go back into TV Tuner mode then back to Composite again. The sound only works intermittantly. Also sometimes I cannot get any channels above 13 even though the setting is on antenna mode.

Running WinXP and Win98SE
Athlon 2100+
512DDR
Asus V8200

Please Help

Asus DVCR 2.2 not workin in PAL-N. Drivers amd software works fie for me in XP; the error message i get is "can't decode signal as video standard"; so tv signal is Black and White (it's working in NTSC).

Ps: I'm from Argentina.

Well, i returned my brand new asus v8460 for rma service cause of the code 10 error. Well, they rudely called me early one morning asking me what was wrong with it. I was so mad!! They called me back cause they still couldnt find a problem with it a half hour later. I explained that they gave me a case number for a reason and that i shouldnt have to explain the problem over and over to 12 different tech guys who give me the same answer:
"MAKE SURE U DISABLE ANTI VIRUS SOFTWARE!"
Anways, they sent be a copy of the log from their testing software and it said it came up with no errors. This also included 3 hrs of video loop time (probably with a keygen copy of 3d mark 2001 se).

I'm not a stupid moron, i know how to install hardware and software(well except their software cause some 90 year old nearsighted fool wrote it!).

Well, the only solution for anyone elses problem is to install asus digital vcr 2.1 beta cause there is a video codec (under sound and video game controllers video codecs in 2000/xp) that only beta 2.1 installs! Gotta upgrade to anything else. Watch carefully when it auto uninstalls before u can install; i.e. make sure when it says "file no longer use by system would u like to remove it?" that u say NO to removeing "asus asv2 codec.*. Everything else u can say yes to.

DVCR 2.1 beta xp/2k comes with its own asus wdm install which is 1.08 (u can upgrade to 1.11 later).

For those having a problem with vertical lines in and mode (composit tv tuner etc) ur probably using the nvidia drivers. These were written for detonator drivers only. U need asus modified wdm drivers!

Anyone have a clue about the code 10 error? I looked it up and windows help said something about it being a device failure error. I am pretty sure that its ok since asus rma told me they installed wdm and capture a dvd with it. I have replaced everything in my system (motherboard, video card, monitor) and noticed i have a agp voltage problem. AGP x4 uses vddq 1.5 and 3.3 voltage for agp voltage. I have been having problems keeping the 3.3 voltage above 3.0. I have purchased a new powersupply but its not here yet. I'm sure i will repost by then and hopefully with good news.

Hey btw mr. yo-helados make sure the jumper on the card is also set to pal. You have to take it out and look for ntsc/pal and 3 pins with a plastic jumper on two of them.

 

[Guest_imported]

A ray of hope: I *did* have the Code 10 error, but it disappeared after one of the following things happened:

1) I reinstalled Windows XP after accidentally removing the boot flag from my C drive.

2) I installed the correct drivers for my internal Netcomm Lucent 56k modem. When the incorrect driver was installed, the modem was unable to hear the dial tone. After installing the non Microsoft driver, the modem worked, and I had a few new system devices, including one called "Unimodem Half-duplex Audio Device". When I noticed this, I also noticed that there was no longer a question mark icon over the Asus WDM driver.

I suspect the Code 10 appeared because the modem and video card were sharing the same IRQ, and by fixing the modem, the Code 10 resolved itself.

 

[Guest_imported]

Well, i found an irq sharing my vid card and i had the capture driver in without a hitch. I rebooted and i got error code 10 once more. I rebooted and xp decided that it wasnt gonna boot anymore. I had a config file go corrupt on me for the 45 times i installed/uninstalled wdm drivers.

I reinstalled xp over the same partition to save my personal files in about 20 minutes. Thank god all my files were still there. I just have to reinstall every program again. I reinstalled all asus package and it wouldnt work again. I checked for any conflicts or sharing irqs and nothing. Finally i was moving all my drivers from my backup on c:\program files\icq\received files video to my d: backup hd. I then tried one more time and it worked.

I was trying to install drivers from a dir that windows doesnt let hidden files into any system folders(ya ntfs, not really).

Thanx for all the help. Forums really work for u sometimes.

 

[Guest_imported]

Ok, I've tried different things but I cant get it to work. I have a Geforce 2 GTS Deluxe (v7700) and a Tv-Box. With the last driver of Asus for the video card and the WDM 1.08 from nvidia + DVCR 2.2 I can see what I plug in my S-video, but I cant see the TV(horizontal white/black bar on all channels). Also I cant capture, I always have a white block in the center.

Someone have an idea ? I didnt do the ini trick .. should I ?

[Guest_imported]

I thought I had the problem solved with all the knowledgable tips being offered here but to no avail! Here are the specs:

Athlon 700/Win XP Pro/256MB SDRAM/Asus v7100 Deluxe Combo

Clean installed (with antivirus disabled) the following as suggested by DerZyniker (see Jun 24, 2002):
1. Asus 29.80 video driver
2. Asus 1.11 WDM driver; with modifications by hcir (see Jan 24, 2002)
3. Asus Digital VCR 2.2; using the video codec from DVCR2.1 as suggested by SirShaggSalot (see Aug 8, 2002)

I cannot see a thing from my VCR source, which is connected to the breakout box, within DVCR (or VirtualDub either, for that matter) but it does perform a "capture" at 6 fps. Dropped frames? Oh, several. The resultant file is the same result as Luvien (see Aug 12, 2002), nothing but a horizontal black bar on top, a horizontal white bar in the middle, and a horizontal black bar on the bottom.

Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated as I cannot afford to lose any more hair over this [granted, if I didn't pull so hard that would help ].

Thanks!
