[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1085474, member: 82144"] That's up to you really. That would be equivalent to saying "the tuner can't tune these channels". If you want to have the SD channels not show up in the guide then I think a better way would be to map all the channels and untick the SD channels in the TV channels section. That is the equivalent of saying "the tuner can tune these channels, but I'm not interested in seeing them in the guide". MP is not the same as WMC. In MP you could merge the channels, however if you do that there is no way to prioritise the HD feed... so I wouldn't recommend that. You can change/fix the channel numbers if you want in the TV channels section of TV Server configuration: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/03_TV_Channels/Add_or_Edit_a_Channel#Editing_an_existing_channel[/url] Select channel, click edit; then the channel number (and name) are there for you to change. I'd advise not to mess with the tuning details though. The channel numbers on all the channels [I]should [/I]already be correct. If they're not I'd be interested to investigate... but I'll need a bit more detail. If you go to the TV Channels section in TV Server configuration and increase the width of the window a bit you should be able to see channel number and name together for all your channels. Please take note of 5 or so channels that have incorrect channel numbers, and post the details here along with your log files: [LIST=1] [*]In TV Server configuration click "open log directory" in the top left corner. [*]Zip up all the files in there. [*]Post the zip file here. [/LIST] Yes, multiple systems can use the tuners - we call that a multi-seat setup. You install TV Server on one PC and MediaPortal on the [other] PCs that want access to TV. TV Server and MediaPortal can and very often do coexist on the same PC - we call that a single-seat setup. MP doesn't allow you to link tuners to specific systems/PCs. Rather, the tuners are available to be used by any system or for recording at any time. You can set the priority for access to the tuners in TV Server configuration here: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/10a_User_Priorities[/url] Enter the name (hostname) of the computer and assign it a priority. Higher numbers = higher priority. If you get into a situation where all 6 tuners are in use and a recording [assumption: recordings are highest priority] needs to use a tuner, the system with lowest priority will be kicked off a tuner to enable the recording to happen.
