[QUOTE="nLEyETn, post: 244591, member: 69997"] 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]2008-03-14 21:47:28.118857 [12]: RemoteControl: Error getting server Instance - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host 2008-03-14 21:47:29.117857 [12]: card: unable to connect to slave controller at:Code-Arsenal 2008-03-14 21:47:30.147857 [15]: card: unable to connect to slave controller at:Code-Arsenal 2008-03-14 21:47:31.177857 [15]: card: unable to connect to slave controller at:Code-Arsenal 2008-03-14 21:47:32.207857 [12]: card: unable to connect to slave controller at:Code-Arsenal 2008-03-14 21:47:33.500857 [15]: card: unable to connect to slave controller at:Code-Arsenal 2008-03-14 21:47:34.547857 [15]: card: unable to connect to slave controller at:Code-Arsenal 2008-03-14 21:47:35.587857 [9]: card: unable to connect to slave controller at:Code-Arsenal 2008-03-14 21:47:36.628857 [9]: card: unable to connect to slave controller at:Code-Arsenal 2008-03-14 21:47:37.667857 [9]: card: unable to connect to slave controller at:Code-Arsenal 2008-03-14 21:47:38.957857 [9]: card: unable to connect to slave controller at:Code-Arsenal[/code] I also noticed in the tv.log it says: [code]2008-03-14 21:47:27.104857 [15]: card: Tuner locked: False 2008-03-14 21:47:27.105857 [15]: ************************************************** 2008-03-14 21:47:27.106857 [15]: ***** SIGNAL LEVEL: 0, SIGNAL QUALITY: 0 ***** 2008-03-14 21:47:27.107857 [15]: ************************************************** 2008-03-14 21:47:29.138857 [8]: ATSC tune: QAM checkbox not selected... using Modulation 8Vsb 2008-03-14 21:47:29.139857 [8]: ATSC tune: PhysicalChannel: 3 Frequency: -1 Modulation: Mod8Vsb 2008-03-14 21:47:30.166857 [8]: ATSC tune: QAM checkbox not selected... using Modulation 8Vsb 2008-03-14 21:47:30.167857 [8]: ATSC tune: PhysicalChannel: 4 Frequency: -1 Modulation: Mod8Vsb 2008-03-14 21:47:31.198857 [8]: ATSC tune: QAM checkbox not selected... using Modulation 8Vsb 2008-03-14 21:47:31.200857 [8]: ATSC tune: PhysicalChannel: 5 Frequency: -1 Modulation: Mod8Vsb 2008-03-14 21:47:32.481857 [8]: ATSC tune: QAM checkbox not selected... using Modulation 8Vsb 2008-03-14 21:47:32.482857 [8]: ATSC tune: PhysicalChannel: 6 Frequency: -1 Modulation: Mod8Vsb[/code] I thought where it said "card: Tuner locked: False" is interesting but I'm not sure it's actually relevant.
