Infinitv Tuner Network Sharing with Static IP

#1

Post by emann » Thu Nov 22, 2012 12:55 am

I have my Infinitv working on a Windows 7 PC.

Now, I want to share one of the tuners with another Windows 7 PC.

But, my Host PC (with the Infinitv) needs to stay as a STATIC IP address (192.168.1.211).

My steps:

Go into the Infinitv Web Page, Network Settings, unclick Standard (DHCP), set IP address to 192.168.1.11.

Bridge the NIC card and the Infinitv

Set the Bridge to static IP 192.168.1.211

Run Ceton Diagnostics, clear tuners, discover tuners.

In WMC, run tv signal setup.

WMC and Ceton DIagnositcs both find the 4 tuners, and say they tune to TV channels.

BUT, WMC says there is no tv signal when I tune to any channels.

If I go back to not using the Network sharing, all works fine.

Help.

TIA for any help.

solved.

since I didn't run the Ceton Network Tuners setup, the Infinitv did not have Bridging enabled.

Once I enabled bridging on the infinitv, I can tune channels on the host pc
