USB TV Tuner - required remote sensor or not?

This destiny feel so much sense at the moment.  I did research on the USB TV tuner and online manuals indicate it comes with a remote sensor separated, but the "what's in the box" does not list these elements.  If I buy the dv7t laptop, I intend to integrate it with my TV and it spends the majority of his life sitting on the entertainment center, so I don't expect to use the remote control.

Can someone clarify the differences between the description of the product and the documentation available?  I don't have to get sucked into another bad buy as my TV (the manual online for this was completely false on one of the features I wanted specifically for).

Thank you!

Since it is clear that no HP or having useful information comes here, I thought that I'm answering my own questions now that I got it for the archives.

First, the documentation provided on this site is not accurate, or at least updated, from this date, so don't base is not your assumptions about everything you see while performing your research.  The literature suggests a slightly different distance and images and description of what is in the box is different from what you will receive.  The online user guide shows an IR (infrared) receiver and additional cables.  Everything is in the box is what is stated on the sales page USB TV Tuner.

Remote work in RF (in appearance), so one might think, there is no need "line of sight", but it does.  I've been using Windows Media Center and the remote active it is very good at a distance of about 10 feet.  I can't test it any further than that.

    1. What happens when you plug-in card TV Tuner? Your computer will detect the device? Do you have a code or a message when it fails to connect?
    2. Did you check connecting them via a different USB port?

    There may be a possibility that drivers for Gadmei TV sticks are not correctly installed on the computer. We will try these methods below and check if that helps.

    Method 1:

    First of all, I suggest you to run the following Microsoft Fixit to get the problem diagnosed and fixed automatically.

    Are you sure that you have the older D60 of NMS and not the much newer 60 d?  Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that the EF-S objectives can ride on the D60, the much older camera model.  This camera model was released prior to the initial version of EF-S-objectives, if I'm not mistaken.

    Yet you continue to say that you have the EOS D60, not the latest EOS 60 d?

  • USB foot pedal problem (Infinity IN-USB-2): recognized by Windows but does not work on VMware Workstation 10

    When I connect an Infinity IN-USB-2 pedal for my guest Windows 7 Professional (on Ubuntu 14.04 and VMware Workstation 10.0.2), the pedal gets recognized by Windows and different applications, but by pressing the pedal itself has no effect.

    I downloaded a USB foot pedal Tester (http://vec-infinity-in-usb-1-foot-pedal-tester.soft112.com/) on the client and he acknowledged that the device is connected, but when I pressed on any of the three pedals, the tester has not detected the presses.

    I tried the pedal on a real Windows computer, and it worked fine.

    When I connect the pedals, even with the guest in the foreground, VMware Workstation will appear a dialog box:

    The specified device is claimed by another (usbhid) driver on the host operating system. The device can be used. To continue, the appliance will be first disconnected from its current driver. [Cancel] [OK]

    When I click 'OK', we state above: Windows recognizes that the device is connected, but foot-presses are not detected. My other USB devices are not pop this dialog box. (Click Cancel maintains the device disconnected from the guest.) I don't know if the dialog box is significant or a red herring.

    Here's what/var/log/syslog says when I connect the pedal with the Windows client in the foreground:

    kernel: [281434.822751] usb 2 - 1.7: new low speed USB device number 28 using ehci-pci

    kernel: [281434.920667] usb 2 - 1.7: new USB key found, idVendor is 05f3, idProduct = 00ff

    And when I click on "OK" to the dialog, he said:

    kernel: [281480.900448] usb 2 - 1.7: reset low speed USB device number 28 using ehci-pci

    When I unplug the device, it is said:

    kernel: [281517.582472] usb 2 - 1.7: unplug USB, the device number 28

    Thanks for the ideas on solving this problem.

    Answering my own question: I spoke with a salesman who told this pedal does not work on virtual machines for the following reason:

    These pedals are all just Universal USB controllers that require programs or applications to be able to see and recognize them for use. Because they are installed by the base of Windows and Generic USB devices drivers, they can not be seen my remote computers via USB sharing etc.

    They recommended using a hotkey program to work around the problem. I have not tried this solution, but bought a different pedal that works out of the box with VM: a vP-1 vPedal. Lower build quality than infinity (in my opinion) but it works perfectly.

    This is the idea of the key of the seller:

    I have a solution that will allow you to use the pedal as expected if the remote program who need to use supports the use of shortcut keys. For example, these pedals are commonly used with NCH Software Express Scribe professional software. This software can use either a pedal, or you can assign the playback functions to access keys. In the scenario you are talking you re Express Scribe on the remote computer to use keyboard shortcuts, you then install Pedalware (http://www.altoedge.com/pedalware/index.html), a free Windows only the foot pedal utility made by NCH Software, you then use the Pedalware utility to assign the buttons on the pedal of a keyboard shortcut that coincides with those remote program.

    I can't receive all channels usb dvb tuner stick.
    However, my cable box at home works.

    I'm on XP sp2 and I have the latest drivers, I tried in Germany after the purchase, still no signal

    Hello

    I'm not professional, but as much as I know DVB is not available everywhere in Germany. First of all inform you about it. On the net, you can find information about the transmission area. Then, if you use some external device try visiting producer support site because they have much more experience with own products.

    You will be very happy if you find someone with the same problem.

    To use the program SimplePass, know that before, you can do if you need complete a few items:

    Implementation / assign a PIN code in settings PC as if you are going to use Windows Hello.  The PIN code is necessary, regardless of whether you actually 'Hello' - requirement for the PIN code is an additional security that Windows has put in place.

    Without taking into account Simplepass, you want to get the native Windows logon work of fingerprints - while the Windows logon provides access to Web sites, it does not support connecting to your computer.

    Once arrived at the point where you're ready for SimplePass, you want to use the latest version of the program in the respective series.

    There are two different flavors of SimplePass:

    • Windows 7 through Windows 10: series 6 HP SimplePass V6.0.100.276 (AuthenTec)
    • Windows 7-Windows 10: series 8 HP SimplePass V8.01.46A and upward (Softex)

    These "flavors" are programs separated; You cannot 'upgrade' of series 6 to 8 sets - you can change the program from one genre to the other, that is, remove one and install on the other.
