[QUOTE="ijourneaux, post: 791210, member: 114024"] I am on the same page. I am just not expressing my self very well. I am refering to the HDPVR as a tuner when it isn't. THe HDPVR via the attached cable box can tune in any of the channels in the SD line up. If I just configure up the HD-PVR only, SD creates a guide entry for every channel in SD line up. WHen you use the HDPVR within MP MP blasts the channel to the cablebox. The HDPVR records the output and MP can watch the channel. IN this case it creates an entry for channel 600 WRHMDT. In this last go around, I scanned all of the channels on all of the tuners and allocated the channels to the tuners. When I restarted the TVServer, SD mapped all of the the channels in the SD lineup to channels on the tuners. It failed in two places 1. HDHomeRun HD Channel 81-1 WAOWDT was mapped to the SD guide channel channel 81 G4 likely because it match on channel number 2. SD successfully mapped the other HDHomeRun channels to the correct SD program guide channels. BUT for each channel it mapped to the HDHomeRun, it did not create an equivalent entry for the HD-PVR when it should have. For instance both the HDHomeRUn (by itself as it is a tuner) and the HDPVR (via the cablebox) can tune in channel 600. ON the HDHomeRUn, I renamed the channel from WRHM-HD to WHRMDT to match the entry for channel 600 WHRMDT in SD. After SD mapped the channel, WHRMDT became 90-3 WHRMDT associated with the correct channel on the HDHomeRun. But SD should have also created an entry for the HDPVR (which isn't really a tuner) corresponding to 600 WHRMDT. It didn't so I can not watch channel 600 using the HDPVR. So I have to add an entry to channel 600 (and the 15 other channels that are missing) for the HDPVR. [/QUOTE]
