Software Installation

 There is a "readme.pdf" in the Minitioune software package that gives the latest information and a step by step guide

For a step by step guide on how to do this, see the paper written by W6HHC - http://www.w6ze.org/DATV/InstallingMiniTiouner_onWin10.pdf

• Install the D2XX drivers 2.12.24 found at http://ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm. There's a link in the right column for a setup executable. This stage is missing from W6HHC notes.
• Install the FT2232H USB driver for the MiniTiouner board
• Inspect the FT2232H USB-controller module (preprogramed by BATC for NIMtuner) for correct internal memory programming
• Install LAVfilters CODECs and test the HW board and test the DirectShow filters
• Look in the Minitiouner folder that you've just copied to C:\ for the small program "Install_usrc_ax_winXP" and run this to install the link with the decoder.
• Run the MiniTiouner_v0.6d executable & perhaps adjust the decoder filters being used.
