[QUOTE="T^2, post: 1049686, member: 145022"] What I meant by most is that there were a handful of channels that were identified and shown as un-encrypted that didn't show up until after channel 11 had been scanned (WUTB-HD, Bounce, WETA UK, KIDS, TV26). I'm not certain exactly when they showed. I actually left and went to dinner after channel 10 or 11 was done and I saw the initial channel dump happen. I let the scan run while I was at dinner. When I came back it was up around channel 30 something and then I cancelled the scan. I've attached the lastscan.xml file produced by NextPVR. You can see in it how many un-encrypted and encrypted channels it's able to find. Of the un-encrypted channels, I keep 29 in my guide. The rest that I exclude in the guide are either SD versions of HD channels I already have, or stuff that I don't want. Some yes. You can see what it's able to glean from EPG in the lastscan.xml file. I did another scan with NextPVR to answer this. It took approximately 7 minutes to do a full scan. WMC 7 take a bit longer. I would say about 15 minutes - if memory serves - for WMC 7. That makes sense I guess. zap2it also shows 3 instances in it's guide (15 - WBFF, 213 - WBFFDT, 805 - WBFFDT). Edit: Taking a closer look at what you posted... WBFF2__WBFF_THIS_TV would refer to 206 - WBFFDT2 This TV in zap2it. WBFF3__WBFF_TCN would refer to 205 - WBFFDT3 TCN. In zap2it 15 - WBFF is likely the SD channel. 213 - WBFFDT is the HD channel. Why there is another listing for WBFFDT (805 - WBFFDT) I don't know but would presume it's also HD. My zip is 21155. When zap2it ask you to choose your provider, choose [URL='http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tvlistings/ZCGrid.do?method=decideFwdForLineup&zipcode=21155&setMyPreference=false&lineupId=MD19447:X&aid=zap2it']Comcast Baltimore County - Digital (Essex)[/URL] under cable. No. I have the time and I'm willing to work with you. I appreciate the effort that you are expending. Whatever you need just let me know and I will try to provide. That includes access to the server (you may need to assist in the technical details on how to do that).
