Rescan for TV channels
Windows 10 requires special drivers to avoid errors during the Hauppauge product installation. The latest versions of WinTV 8.5, WinTV v8 and Hauppauge Capture include these drivers. But if you are looking just for the Windows 10 driver, these are updated drivers which can be used with Windows 10.
How to find the product code of your Hauppauge product:
Hauppauge product codes on WinTV internal boards are normally found on the TV tuner. This is a five digit number normally followed by a revision (REV). You need to look at the first two numbers to determine the product type. The other numbers are related to the accessories which are on the product.
On the MediaMVP, WinTV-USB and other 'boxes', the product code is normally on a label on the bottom of the case.
Hauppauge has a new SDK available for .NET applications. The SDK simplifies the development of TV applications in .NET. The SDK makes it easy for applications to perform functions like querying the available channels, start watching a channel in an application supplied window, pause/play, adjust volume, display OSD graphics, record live tv to a file, etc.
