[MediaPortal-Bot]

[PARSEHTML]Clear QAM channels are scanned using the QAM Standard, QAM HRC, QAM IRC, QAM HRC + 3 and QAM Std Alternative tuning detail files.<br /> <br /> The frequencies listed in those files should match the details here:<br /> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_cable_television_frequencies">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_cable_television_frequencies</a> [<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_cable_television_frequencies" target="_blank">^</a>]<br /> <a href="http://www.jneuhaus.com/fccindex/cablech.html">http://www.jneuhaus.com/fccindex/cablech.html</a> [<a href="http://www.jneuhaus.com/fccindex/cablech.html" target="_blank">^</a>]<br /> <br /> The "odd" (exceptional) frequencies are documented here:<br /> <a href="http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/CFR-2011-title47-vol4/xml/CFR-2011-title47-vol4-sec76-612.xml">http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/CFR-2011-title47-vol4/xml/CFR-2011-title47-vol4-sec76-612.xml</a> [<a href="http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/CFR-2011-title47-vol4/xml/CFR-2011-title47-vol4-sec76-612.xml" target="_blank">^</a>]<br /> <br /> Physical channel number is taken from the index of the frequency in the file. So for example, the first frequency is channel 1, second is channel 2 etc.<br /> <br /> Extra frequencies in the files is leading to incorrect physical channel number assignment.<br /> Also, some of the exceptions in the link noted above are not accounted for.[/PARSEHTML]
