Why can’t I record?
ComproPVR 2 needs to use components of Ulead PhotoExplorer 8.5. If your
computer doesn’t have PhotoExplorer, ComproPVR 2 will fail to record. Please
reinstall Ulead PhotoExplorer 8.5 from installation CD.
No audio in the recorded file. What's wrong?
This may be a result of choosing the wrong record audio source in the System
Device in ComproPVR Settings. If you are using an external audio patch cable,
verify that it is connected between the Audio-Out of TV tuner card and Line-In

If using the internal audio patch cable, check that it is connected between the
internal Audio-Out of the TV tuner card and AUX-In of your sound card and
that you selected the audio source to “AUX.” You may plug in to CD-In. If so,
please select the audio source to “CD-In.”
Check the recording volume levels in the ComproPVR Recording tab in the
Settings dialog.

of TV card. You have to buy a
converter (see the right) to transfer
Composite Audio cable (red one and
white one) into stereo jack.

recording. Press Ctrl + Alt + Del to check your CPU usage. If it reaches 100%,
then the lag is inevitable.
The usual reason for this problem is conflict with some CODEC software, such
as Nimo or K-Lite. This kind of software forces applications to use their
