[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 989906, member: 82144"] Just a quick post as it is 4:30am here... Attached are solutions for issues 2, 4 and 7. Solution to two is set name as "Unknown <physical>-<service ID>" as requested. Solution to four is set LCN = (<physical> x 1000) + service ID. It is the best we can do at this stage. If/when we add support for 5 then we would obviously update this. [url]http://mantis.team-mediaportal.com/view.php?id=4406[/url] Solution to seven was errors in tuning detail files. The errors would only have caused the offset for channels 23..95 (or something like that)... which is why it had me so confused. ;) [url]http://mantis.team-mediaportal.com/view.php?id=4405[/url] Instructions for installing and testing: [LIST=1] [*]Open TV Server configuration. [*]Go to the "manual control" section and click "stop service". [*]Close TV Server configuration. [*]Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the folder you installed TV Server in. Default is C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server on a 32 bit version of Windows or C:\Program Files [B](x86)[/B]\Team ... on a 64 bit version of Windows. [*]Take a backup of the TVLibrary.dll. [*]Download and extract the attached TVLibrary.dll into the same folder. [*]Copy and paste "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\TuningParameters\atsc\" into the address bar and press enter. [*]Replace the tuning detail XML files with the attached versions. [/LIST] After this, please test scanning again. You'll need to delete the cable channels before scanning as MP intentionally does not update the names or LCNs of existing channels. Assuming you've done a significant amount of renaming etc. already, you can save your exising channel list using the import/export section of TV Server configuration. [B]Please use the QAM Standard tuning detail file if at all possible.[/B]I know you said you prefer the IRC one, but most people use the QAM Standard one. I can't get these changes into the next release unless they're tested... so QAM Standard really needs to be tested if at all possible. Still to look at the duplicate channel issue... @[URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/members/rond.117536/']RonD[/URL] @[URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/members/2bitsculptor.65661/']2BitSculptor[/URL] Any chance either of you can help with the testing? Ron, I note that I've used [something like] your convention for assigning the LCN [B]for both ATSC and cable[/B]. Where available: (<major channel> x 1000) + <minor channel> ...otherwise... (<physical channel> x 1000) + <service ID> I know you'd possibly prefer shorter numbers, but apparently for for cable the minor channel can run up to 999. I see @[URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/members/breese.114299/']breese[/URL] has examples that are definitely over 100 in his log files. Hence the need for multiplying by 1000 instead of 100.
