[QUOTE="ijourneaux, post: 789482, member: 114024"] I figured out the problem wiht the preview not working. As you mentioned it was an issue with the merit of the prefered codec. As I was debugging the problem this afternoon, I found the text you quoted and that got me on the right track. Now regarding the mapping to schedules direct. This could be it. I was was trying to be careful and adding the channels one tuner at a time and make sure it worked.
