Nero Live (Nero 9) support for Sony Giga Pocket tuner?

I have a Sony VAIO desktop (Windows XP Home SP2), with Giga Pocket DVR and Tuner.
Prefer to use Nero instead of Giga Pocket.

After selecting "SMRT Capture" for the tuner scan, Source "Cable", Nero Live detects the correct channel fine.
But, I get "Channel cannot be viewed curently - the tuner is blocked." when I try to view.
I have tried shutting down all Giga Pocket services. So what can be blocking the tuner?

Anyone get Nero Live to work with a Sony Giga Pocket Tuner yet?

Just wanted to add that I can get it to work (i.e. view live TV) in Nero Vision [Capture Video] (Capture Device is "SMRT Capture"), but not Nero Live.

Hi Nate2,

As far as I know, the tuner is not supported by Nero Live.

Strange that it would work under Nero Vision but not Nero Live.
Different group of developers using non-shared routines between the 2 Nero products?

I think I'll buy a Hauppauge.

Hi Nate2,

It could be that the cards supported by Nero Vision are not the same ones as the ones supported by Nero Live. The same with Nero Media Home. I would attach to the list that Nero Support gave you, as this is the list of the cards supported by Nero Live. This cards have been tested, and work with Nero Live.

Regards,

Someone at Nero must be reading my mind.

I got a sales offer e-mail from Nero a couple of days ago to purchase Nero LiquidTV (by today!) for US$69.99 (incl. shipping!)
The LiquidTV package appears to include the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR950 (or 950Q ?) USB TV Tuner Card.

I don't see too much mention of Nero Live on the Nero website.
Can Nero Live do something Nero LiquidTV can't?
