not getting anywhere!

Dear Friends,

I have had MediaPortal for a while and have never been able to obtain a full spectrum of Freeview DAT Channels. I know my aerial is OK as TV receives OK on set top box.

I have today uninstalled MP and done a clean re-install of the latest stable version but am still only getting a portion of channels.

No BBC channels in brief!

I have tried a number of transmitters on "Config" and the signal seems good.

Using otherwise faultless Medion PC and have received BBC channoels before but not sure how....

Just wondered if anyone has a short cut idea of how I proceed?

Many thanks if you have.

Can you tell us which tuner you are using, as there are great reception differences between the various card makes.

I take it you also mean Freeview (DVB-T), what really is your local transmitter, because if you are in a area of multiple reception, this may screw things up.

Regards
