[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1146384, member: 82144"] Hello again That's an SDV thing too. With CableCARD tuners, the tuner itself can talk to the tuning adaptor/resolver and get the full/proper lineup details. We can only talk to the tuner, and not the tuning adaptor/resolver. That means we're forced to rely on the tuner passing along the lineup details. It seems that both Ceton and Silicondust haven't thought this through, and we're not actually able to get a proper lineup. :( As with the previous non-working channels: there's a workaround... which isn't so pleasant. You can create channels manually. [LIST=1] [*]Open TV Server Configuration. [*]Go to the TV Channels section. [*]Click "add" in the channels area. [*]Enter the channel name and number. [*]Click "add". [*]Select ATSC and click OK. [*]You should now see this dialog: [URL]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/@api/deki/files/3992/=TV-Server_Configuration_-_TV_Channels_-_Add_Edit_ATSC_Tuningdetail.png[/URL] [LIST=1] [*]By definition physical channel number is not fixed for SDV. I'd just use the channels virtual channel number (eg. OWN was 119). [*]Frequency is also not fixed, so just put in the channel number. [*]Major channel number should be the channel's virtual channel number. [*]Minor channel number should be zero. [*]Modulation should be 256 QAM. [*]Put in zero for source ID and transport stream ID. You're not going to be able to find these values, and they don't matter too much. [*]Get service ID from the tuner web page, same as you have done with other SDV channels. [*]PMT PID needs to be zero. [*]Provider can be anything you like. [*]Free to air should be unticked, since the channels are encrypted. [/LIST] [*]Click OK and OK. [/LIST] After creating all the channels you need to create: [LIST=1] [*]Expand the TV Channels section and click on TV Mapping. [*]Select your first tuner up the top. [*]Select all channels on the left. [*]Click > to map (tells TV Server that it can use the tuner to tune the channel). [*]Repeat (2) to (4) for all other tuners. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
