[QUOTE="bsmedly, post: 253708, member: 17999"] I thought I might mention this in case it helps anyone else. The basic problem was: after a reboot, the analog channels on my Hauppauge WinTV PVR refused to work. Just static and no sound. I tried restarting the tvserver, a few more reboots, but no luck. After some fooling about, I discovered it was only the UHF (31, SBS) channels that had a problem, VHF worked fine. Both VHF and UHF channels were configured with just a channel number (no frequency). Turns out the solution was simple: in the tvserver configuration tool, explicitly set the frequency on UHF channels and reboot. Tv Channels -> (Channel #) -> Analog -> Frequency. Shazam - the channels show up again. You'll find some Australian frequencies listed on: [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australasian_TV_frequencies]wikipedia[/url] As an example: I set the channel 31 frequency to 548.25 instead of the default 0.0. The problem is only with UHF channels that have a channel number and no frequency, VHF works fine with just the channel number. Hooray - now I can watch [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santo]Santo[/url] this Friday! TVEngine3: 02-26-2008 rev 17535 [/QUOTE]
