So I installed a new TV tuner card, hoping it would be great and reliable, as it’s designed for use with Plex. The one in question is the WinTV-quadHD. Looking at the log for the Plex Tuner Service, i get this:

. . . and it’s repeated a lot. To try to narrow down the problem, I installed WinTV, and it sees the tuner and plays TV just fine. But I really want to use Plex, I also use it for music, and it’s more functional and friendly than WinTV.
Here is more info from the beginning of the log file:
