[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1070024, member: 82144"] Hello The_Keymaker I seem to be talking about this a lot recently. :( Exactly what problem are you referring to? People that have previously commented in this thread had misconfigured channels or MediaPortal. Once configuration was corrected they were able to zap as desired. So, have you read the whole thread carefully and done as suggested? As above and as earlier stated in the thread: [LIST=1] [*]Ensure channel numbers are set on channels correctly here: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/@api/deki/files/2585/=Edit_channel.png[/url] [*]Ensure "select channel by index" is unticked and "channel number max length" is set appropriately: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/MediaPortal_Configuration/22_TV/TV_Client#Channel_numbers[/url] [*]Ensure your zap delay gives enough time to enter the channel number: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/MediaPortal_Configuration/13_GUI/6_On-Screen_Display_*[/url] [/LIST] That's it. You have probably failed at points 1 and/or 2 above. Are you sure you're checking the correct location as indicated above? To be clear, the analog tuning detail channel number pictured here is [B]not relevant [/B]for your remote (though it is what gets sent to the STB): [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/@api/deki/files/2582/=Tuning_detail_1_Analog-TV.png[/url] Fine... though neither of those points make any particular difference. Yep, the blaster plugin is totally irrelevant. I note again that the analog tuning detail channel number which is likely used by your plugin is [B]not[/B] the channel number that you need to enter in MP. The reason is not obvious to me, so maybe you could help by stating the obvious. :) I note that it is not a problem to use zeroes as part of the channel number... though you obviously need to set the zap timeout appropriately so that MP gets all of the digits that you enter. I suggest you post log files so we can actually see what MP received and how it was interpretted. [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/16_Support/3_Forums/2_Log_Files[/url] As above - I don't see the problem with zero, and the fact that zero is used doesn't prevent you from entering channel numbers like "400". This function works for me and many other people. In other words, the fact that it is not working for you is more likely to imply that you have incorrect configuration rather than that the function is faulty. Lots of suggestions provided as above. :) mm [/QUOTE]
