    The short answer to your question is: you can't do an auto scan. TV Server currently does not provide any auto-scanning function. Implementing such a function in a plugin would also be challenging because most of the scanning logic is embedded in SetupTV.exe (TV Server Configuration). Therefore you'd either have to modify TV Server Configuration or completely reimplement scanning in order to create an auto scan capability.

    Users running OpenPli on STB can activate a plugin called Auto Bouquet Maker.
    This plugin can be configured to extract the channellist from the transport stream, just as a standard STB does.

    If this plugin only was available for Media Portal, then we could have an updated channellist every morning ;-)

    Well, the log doesn't show any problems. I can see correctly tuned channels in the log. It seems to me that the tuner works fine. Can you copy the created ts file(located in your timeshift folder) somewhere else while in channel preview and try to play it in VLC or MPC-HC? PS: You can also try to make short record

I can only do it sometimes, after many tries, and it’s not clear what I am doing that makes it work on those occasions when it does. Cannot find guidance on the site. Thanks, N.
