      Dim tvtuner As TVTuner = capturectrl.TVTuner

      ' Check if TV tuner is valid
      If Not tvtuner Is Nothing Then
         ' get the input type
         Dim type As TunerInputType = tvtuner.GetInputType(0)

         ' set the result to what we expect
         _result = (type = TunerInputType.Cable)
      End If
   Catch e1 As Exception

   try
   {
      // try set the analog video capture device, use your device name here
      if (capturectrl.VideoDevices["Analog"] != null)
         capturectrl.VideoDevices["Analog"].Selected = true;

      // reference the TV tuner interface
      TVTuner tvtuner = capturectrl.TVTuner;

      // Check if TV tuner is valid
      if (tvtuner != null)
      {
         // get the input type
         TunerInputType type = tvtuner.GetInputType(0);

         // set the result to what we expect
         _result = (type == TunerInputType.Cable);
