MediaPortal Version: 0.2.3_RC2
Windows Version: XP Pro SP2
1. TV Card: HVR-3000

Hi There,

Wondering if someone could give me a hand please? I have tried everything that i can find and its just not working. I have a fresh install of XP with SP2, with a Hauppauge HVR-3000 connected to my SKY Dish. I am trying to get MP working... I know the card/dish works because i have MCE 2005/freeview NZ all working with EPG etc (on another HD but in the same PC).

I have installed MP 0.2.3_RC2, created a file "Freeview.tpl" in the "D:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\TuningParameters" directory thus:

satname=FreeView on Optus D1 (160E)
12483,H,22500
12456,H,22500

Then i run the MP setup, go to TV/Capture Cards, Add new card, select "Hauppauge WinTV 88x TS Capture (Hauppauge HVR-3000 DVB-S) from the list, go to the Autotune tab, entered: LNB0 11300, Switch 0, LNB1 11300. I left C-Band and Circular as default (5150 and 10750). From the LNB setup i selected: DiSEqC: None, LNB: Ku-Band, Tone: 22KHz, Satteline: FreeView on Optus D1.

Then hit scan. It scans thru, on Freq 12546 i get a full Signal strength. Then it says "Scan finished".

No channels.

What to do now? Have i done something incorrect?

Thanks for any replies in advance!!

Simon

Thanks for all the replies

OK: I have sorted this out and it works a treat. I just used the standard Optus D1 tpl file that came with MP and used these settings:

With these i can get all the NZ freeview channels. It is now working!
