TV-Server 0003946: Scanning: channels with the same ONID + TSID + SID combination can overwrite eachother (1 Viewer)

[PARSEHTML]According to DVB guidelines, ONID + TSID + SID should be unique in all the world.

This can cause TV Server to think one channel is the same as others and overwrite the tuning details.[/PARSEHTML]

Any solution to this problem yet?

No... but then this is not a particularly common problem.
Are you 100% sure this is what you're experiencing?

unfortunately yes, i'm viewing satellite china of chinasat 6b and palapa d, most of their ONID and TSID is either 0-1 or 1-1. I've tested this when scanning single transponder, and when I scanned second transponder it did not create new channel, and overwrite the channel result from the first transponder scan result.

Right, okay. Yeah using 0 or 1 as ONID and/or TSID seems to be a very common practice. Currently there is no solution. The workaround is to add the channels manually. Sorry.

i've tried to add the channel manually, but have no luck on mapping the channel into the DVB-S card. How can I do that?
