If you've recently purchased a TV QAM tuner from Hauppauge and it came with a CD containing drivers and apps, do not throw it away thinking you can get the latest from their website.
I recently had a mega clear out of all sorts of old CD's including about a dozen Hauppauge CD's for the various Hauppauge HW I have owned or still use.
Hauppauge in their 'wisdom' now require you to have the original CD available if you wish to upgrade to latest apps.
So I was caught out !
If you don't have the CD they'll sell you a replacement :-(
Along with others I posted my distaste at this policy on their UK support forum - but my post was deleted as were other peoples - seems Hauppauge doesn't want to listen or comment to their customers who pay their wages.
This is a shame as I had recently been very impressed by their warranty service when one of my HVR-1600's started to fail.
Any suggestions as to alternate vendors who don't have such a retarded policy re drivers and apps ?

Hi Mike,
True.....
I've been running Win 7 MCE under Win 7 beta, then RC and now bought a copy and it works great - no need for any Win TV [email protected]
However the issue I have is with my other PC which runs XP for some legacy apps and from time to time I like to watch live TV on it using Win TV.
I must have spent well over $1000 with Hauppauge on a bunch of their cards including a HD-PVR which is hooked up to my HTPC - now only to find I can't up grade my XP box unless I buy a new CD.

If you can find the WinTV v7 version 1.2a ... you can install that and then 1.2b.
Luckily I still had 1.2a when I installed Win 7 and wanted WinTV installed (to help me figure out why I wasn't getting QAM)

yep - that's what I had to do - found a version available on the web then upgraded to 1.2b.
Going beyond 1.2b doesn't seem possible without an original disk.
Just seems odd as the SW is so tied to the HW why would they need to enforce this original disk nonsense ?
Maybe some to do with patents / licensing.

Not to mention that WinTV 7 is an entirely different animal from previous versions.

If all they're doing is making it more difficult to install WinTV, they're doing the people a favor.

Just an FYI -- Hauppauge goofballs still sticking with this stupid policy. However thanks to the post above everything still works great. Download the RARs and EXE self extractor. Extract to a folder. Build an ISO file with the contents of the folder OR Burn a CD with the contents of the folder. Either way make sure the label is HCW4_8_26351PPH
Then insert or mount the disk to your drive and voila you can install WINTV 7 automatically!!!!!!
And to the user above who dissed the Hauppauge units. These are perfect for extraction of rare video from a household PVR. Or just clips of anything standard TV....
Spring 2013 everything works great and it still doesn't matter if you lost your silly Hauppauge CD...
THANKS SHS THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST 10$ I HAVE EVER SAVED!!!!!

3 cheers to SHS! It appears that wintv is the only program that will allow me to recognize the s-video input on my hauppauge. I could not install Wintv because I was missing the disc, but you my friend have saved me time and money. Thanks very much!

This link is dead. Can someone send me a new link? Not one of those 'complete a survey' or 'download a virus' please. Just tried one on my machine that runs on a RAM drive (like a reinstall every time it boots). I have an FTP to upload it to, drop box or onedrive works too. I'd sure appreciate it. Thanks!

Ah well, I'll keep looking. $10 isn't a lot... it's the principal of it. Now a day, it's not enough to sell you a product, they have to try to screw you into paying for what you already have. This should be illegal. I mean, how would someone feel if they were sold a car, after a year they put sugar in their gas tank so they would buy a new one? How is this right?

Thanks for the ISO. I already bought a CD and code, but can use it for the next computer for sure. I finally decided it was worth $10, since Windows 10 doesn't come with Media Center, and there were features in WinTV 8 that I found most useful (like streaming), not just a viewer and the driver. Since I could get the driver for free, no hard feelings towards Hauppauge. Considering how much I paid for the card ($3.99) I'm quite content
If you need help getting into your TV service menu or anything, I'll return the favor. I built an IR receiver / decoder / transmitter out of an Arduino, an IR photo sensor and LED. Hooks up to the USB to a serial console, working on my remote program.
I like this card, Windows 10 doesn't bitch as much as with my TV Wonder 650 (Got a USB, a PCI, and a PCIe), but it's got hardware encoding which is nice. They stopped supporting it at Vista, and you gotta 'Mickey-mouse' it to work with 10. Anyone have any ideas?
