[QUOTE="breese, post: 988258, member: 114299"] I have worked for hours on gathering info I think might help. The last set of MP logs I uploaded are current. I have done nothing else on the server or client. Included in the WinTV zip are all the log files I could find, the database files, some XML files it seems to be using, and because I updated to the newest version of WinTV, I included some of the ini files. Also, the WinTV application scanned the entire cable and found 362 channels in 6 minutes. Way faster than MP. Also in here is a spreadsheet I have been working on. The top half I started has the WOW channels listing and the WinTV findings to all unencrypted QAM Channels. I was going to do a search of the MP scan files and add them to the spreadsheet but soon discovered a number of channels in MP are off by 1. I am sure you will see it.... The bottom half of the spreadsheet (Yellow seperator) is the Raw finding within the WinTV application. Becuse I could not locate what I think would have been a simular MP scan log, I typed each and every one in and included Y if it found it to be encrypted and all the Channel names. Needless to say, I have done everything I can think of to get as much info into your hands as possible. Want more... tell me where it is and I will get it for you OR someone IM me and I will look into them having direct access.
