Re: PowerShell Enable/Disable DVB Card before starting DVB Program

.. and this lists only my onboard video chip. :-(

What's the return value of get-WmiObject?
Can I get this information from the device manager?

you can try to find out which object your card belongs to with this command.
Get-WmiObject -list | Where-Object {$_.name -match "SOMETHINGTOSEARCHFOR"}
i hope you`re successful. good luck

Allready tried that but you saw the output ?

Is imens, and if you look for BDA it returns nothing, and now i know why , it was late and i had WDM installed

cdr_pro try:

Get-WmiObject -list | Where-Object {$_.Name.Contains("BDA")}

and return the ouput

Not using match for now beaucause we don't know the exact name, i think is better with "contains "

Then it looks to me that will be imposible to use that script for BDA drivers.

You have to switch to old school methods :

Device Manager -> right click on BDA device Disable

Device Manager -> right click on BDA device Enable

It seems the only way at the moment when using BDA drivers
