I'm considering more than one version of FireDTV (a DVB-C, DVB-T and DVB-S). But does anyone know how many FireDTV you can chain on one FireWire?

Hi Trax,
I tested already two FireDTVs at the same time with mediaportal at everything works perfectly.

Combining different version of FireDTV or FloppyDTV is never a problem. From FireWire point of view you can connect about 5-6FireDTV at the same time and watching at HDTV with each of them without any problem.

You can join the digital everywhere forum and ask there about the multi-tuner capability of FireDTV/FloppyDTV

If you can read German you can try asking this other guys about their result in testing multituner capability of FireDTV/FloppyDTV

It's getting weirder..... If I remove all the IP cards in the TVServer setup and then add them back I can scan the M3u and tune the stations but if I rescan it on the same card it just keeps updating the 1 channel. My brain is melting.........

Perhaps... Only way to confirm would be for me to invest in a different USB DVB-S2 tuner (like the Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-S2), which I might do if the issue persists.

According to Wikipedia, Windows only uses code pages other than UTF-8 to support legacy (mostly 32 bit) applications and supports two code pages in addition to UTF-8 (OEM and ANSI). According to Microsoft, UTF-8 has been the preferred character set since 2019. If TV Server (or its import routine) were using UTF-8, then umlauts...

Well, I had already recognized your problem, but I still wanted to point out the basic connections once again. Unfortunately, I don't have a fundamentally different solution for you, but with this approach you should achieve your goal. ;) The idea of first setting the current genre colors with the defines is certainly a good one, as...
