[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1283409, member: 141969"] This morning I installed MP2 for the very first time. :eek: It was installed on a virgin Windows 7, and proceeded without a single problem. (y) :) From the names listed, it looks as though you selected the "Create digital terrestrial group" setting when you scanned for channels in "TV Server Config". I don't bother with that, as you always get an "All Channels" group. If you have only DVB-T/T2 tuners, there is no point in having a separate "Digital Terrestrial"group. That setting is useful if you [i]also[/i] have a satellite tuner (DVB-S/S2) or a cable tuner (DVB-C). In the screen shots below, the "Channels" tab is simply a list of everything that TV Server found during the scan; the "Channels" tab is not a group. The tabs to the right show the channel groups. The default "All Channels" group includes [i]only[/i] those channels that you have selected on the "Channels" tab. I have created two additional groups that contain a subset of "All Channels", namely "Film Channels" and "News Channels". For radio, I have also created two additional groups -- "BBC Radio" and "Independent Radio". [ATTACH]208281[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]208282[/ATTACH] When you click the left-most box-button in the EPG, you see the group-selection popup that lists the TV channel groups and the radio channel groups. The one quirk is that there are two groups called "All Channels". However, one should be the TV all-channels group, and the other should be the radio all-channels group. I tried changing the name of the "All Channels" group in "TV Server Config", but the action is greyed-out for the "All Channels" group, so I guess that means that its name cannot be changed. The second screen shot below shows the EPG for the BBC radio group, and the third screen shot shows the radio-playing screen: [ATTACH]208283[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]208284[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]208285[/ATTACH] -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
