From: Martin on
Hi everyone,
I develop the driver for a USB Digital TV Tuner Card. I exactly followed the
instruction of DTM to do the test on Vista. But after creating the
submission, I found I am not "offered" the TV Tuner Test and the USB Test.

But if I select "View By Driver" in Device Console and select my device in
the list, the right tests disappear.

Is this a bug for DTM? And anybody knows how to deal with this? I am
appreciated to your reply.

Martin,

as of yesterday there's a new specific newsgroup for DTM,
microsoft.public.development.device.drivers.dtm

Hope it helps
GV

Hi GV,
Thank you for your reply.

But I can't find the news group
microsoft.public.development.device.drivers.dtm.
Could you give me a link for that?

Thanks.

It is there in the primary newsgroup server. Why would anyone use any
server other than msnews.microsoft.com for these newsgroups?

Yes it is an acknowledged bug (to be fixed in next release of DTM). The
workaround is to also have a non-BDA tuner card present in the system - I
use an old Pinnacle PC-TV PCI card.
Note also that the Tuner tests are not required (i.e. won't be offered) on
XP.
