I have done a clean installation of RC1 and combined channels from my DVB-S card with the same ones on my DVB-T card but there are still two in the all channels list and in the TV guide.
Does anyone know if I have done something wrong?

Cheers,
Rich

AW: combining channels

.. the important part of the picture is missing - after having combined (e.g. dvbs and dvbt) a channel in channellist should have both providers listed in the the corresponding row (that is not visible in your screenshot).

they appear as one channel in the channels list thats why I didn't post a pic. Heres one to show they have combined successfuly.

Follow up question as I have 2 tuners and 1 provider how do you know if they've combined properly?

AW: combining channels

afaik you don't need to combine them in this case. I have two tuners both scanned for same sattelite (thus same provider) and as long as any card is free, it will be used.
Combining is only necessary if you have different providers or different names for the same channel.

In this case do you not get 2 of the same channel in the channel list and guide?
