[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 713272, member: 82144"] Hmm, thanks for posting RyanShillington :) I have looked at the AMD/ATI website and I see that the 600 is a hybrid tuner. This means it can only tune either ATSC/QAM or NTSC (analog) at any given time. Usually such tuners come up as two separate tuners in TV Server configuration, exactly like what you see in your screenshot. I suspect from the names of the tuners in the screenshot that the ATSC/QAM side of the tuner has a BDA driver while the NTSC side of the tuner has a WDM driver. That is *highly* unusual!

Regarding EPG: take a look [URL="http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/15_Customization/001_TV-Server/Configuration/05_DVB_EPG"]here[/URL] for instructions for getting EPG from the tuner (over-the-air). Collecting EPG that way can take a little time to fill up the guide, and of course the data has to be available too. I suspect that the data might not be available and you'll have to use something like ScheduleDirect or WebEPG to get EPG data. By the way, looking back at the original post in this thread I now realise what scotty562 was referring to when he said the tuner came up as "unknown". That generally means that Windows has "lost" the device (this can happen after resuming from sleep/hibernate) or that drivers are not installed correctly. [/QUOTE]
