[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 921219, member: 82144"] Update as promised. :) I've grabbed some stream dump files from bc0508's Prime and lehighbri's InfiniTV 4. In addition, I've investigated how I might get channel information. I was able to receive the virtual channel table data from the Prime, which means I'll be able to grab virtual channel numbers and names. I didn't manage to get the VCT data from the Ceton. Not sure why at this stage. I'm convinced it should be possible. I'll work on the Prime for the moment... @[URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/members/lehighbri.124245/']lehighbri[/URL]: it looks like MythTV uses libhdhomerun for the Prime, and some other hardware specific code for the InfiniTV.
