[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 830177, member: 82144"] Hi and welcome John :) That is quite a setup! Sometimes STBs modulate the signal onto a VHF-L, VHF-H and UHF channel. In any case, did one or all of the channels work? Meaning it is not listed in TV Server configuration, or something else? If my guess was correct did you try restarting the PC?
