[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 926165, member: 82144"] Hello again poggin I'm a little confused when you mention the "-00" thing. First, MP does not support zapping X-Y or X.Y ATSC format channel numbers. This is a shortcoming that I've been aware of for some time. I'm slowly pulling the pieces together that will enable us to add support for this. Anyhow, in practice what this means is that you have to enter a regular number to zap. No asterix, hyphen or period. You have two choices: [LIST=1] [*]Zap by index. [*]Zap by channel #. [/LIST] I'm referring to the "select channel by index (non-US)" setting in MP configuration: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/MediaPortal_Configuration/22_TV[/url] In the context of ATSC and North American cable, the channel number is currently the physical channel number associated with the channel. If you open TV Server configuration, go to the "TV Channels" section, and then select either the "all channels" tab or one of the custom groups you've created you'll see the channel numbers that you need to enter there. Zap by index takes you to the Xth channel in the list. So by way of example, if you enter 100 and have "select channel by index (non-US)" unticked (ie. zap by channel #), you'll go to the channel that has channel number 100. If you enter 100 and have "select channel by index (non-US)" ticked (ie. zap by index), you'll go to the 100th channel in the channel group. Does that help? mm [/QUOTE]
