I just installed MediaPortal for the first time earlier today. At first I was able to find all my channels. I then messed with Schedules Direct setup for a while but finally found out a way to get that working as well. When I was trying out some things after I had gotten Schedules Direct to work, I noticed it wouldn't let me tune to any of the channels any more. I then tried previewing it in the TVServer Setup but that failed as well. I then reset my machine and tried doing a clean scan for all the channels but it failed on every single one. I tested out my Tuner in Media Center for Vista and it is still able to receive broadcasts very well. MediaPortal would fail every time though. I then completely uninstalled everything (TV-Engine, MediaPortal, and Client Plugin) and tried a fresh install for it. I'm following the same instructions I went through the first time but I still cannot get my TV Tuner card to work now. I checked the error.log and it is saying:

Code:

I also noticed in the tv.log it says:

I thought where it said "card: Tuner locked: False" is interesting but I'm not sure it's actually relevant. Can somebody help me please.

Well, I got mine to work again :) I simply forgot to change the server address in the first window of the TVServer configuration. It had a different address in IPv6 format, not sure which adapter it was for, but I just changed it to an IPv4 address that my computer uses and now it works again.
