Hi
Have got Mediaportal and 4theRecord working really nicely together (and it has done so for couple of years), but recently found one small issue.
I recently had my dish knocked out of alignment, and in getting it realigned Ive tweaked its angle it a little so that I can (in NZ) get access to the SBS channels from Australia.
The SBS channels are in a Vertical Polarity, whereas the rest of our NZ Freeview are Horizontal. My Mediaportal setup has 2 cards. I appreciate that in this setup, and my single LNB, that I can only watch in a single polarity at a time ... and channel changing from the NZ Freeview channels then to the SBS ones is fine. Can veiw the SBS channels fine and have good quality on all channels.
Here is the catch tho'. I cant record anything on the 2 x SBS channels. If I schedule a recording nothing gets recorded and all I get in the logs is a whole of of:
"Failed to tune to channel SBS1""
If Im viewing an SBS channel and then click "record" the same happens.
If I go into the Manual Control section of the Mediaportal server and select the SBS channel and start time shifting then record ... all records fine.
Initially I thought maybe something on the server was locking the LNB in the Horizonatal during the recordings, but it wouldnt even record while viewing that channel. Then I thought it must be a mediaportal thing, but then the Manual Record worked fine.
Any ideas? Ive attached log files from Mediaportal for a section where I had the channel viewing and then attempted to dpo a recording.
Cheers
Craig
