    I have a question..

    I'm thinking of splitting out my configuration and building a new client for the living room. The server in the living room I will make into a TV Server (Master) and hide it out of site in the kitchen. (Will have to reroute 6 coax cables tho!)

    If I do this, then do I only need to apply DJBlu plugins to the TV Server? i.e. the clients don't need the patches applied?

    If so, then that means I can then use the native Bluray plugin in the living room for Bluray playback :)

    You need the patch files for all clients as the code for series link is in there.
    You can merge the branches and build your own unique version.
    Take a look on the internet and get hold of git tortoise.
    Any situation is possible now the code is up on github.

    DJBlu - not sure if this is a bug or not, but my Nick Jr has stopped working - I just get a blank screen - all other channels appear to be working ok...

    When I go into the TV Channels, I can see 2 Nick Jr's - one is enabled and in the kids group, the other disabled and not in any group - if I swap then around it works - but then the grabber takes out the working one on the next run.

    All my other sub channels work ok, as does the other Nick Jr, so its either bodged the settings for the one it wants to include, or is picking up the wrong channel.

    My Region is BBC South

    Is this something anyone else is getting or is there anything I can do to stop this breaking on each run - my kids need their Peppa Pig fix each morning so I have to get this back up and running!

    I can grab logs, but just wondered if this was common for others too or not?

    Thanks

    bob

    Can you delete both channels and scan again please.

    I don't know if sky are changing things slightly as I am missing EPG entries.

    Oh yes, I overlooked that!

    It's not a massive issue to have native Bluray (I also own TMT5)

    I'd have to compile on my Mediaportal box presumably (my main machine that I am typing this on is a Mac Pro)

    Thanks for the reply :)

    Hi DJBlue, yes I too have noticed that some epg data was missing from a few channels, just started fully using your plugin and it's a godsend.

    Hi, I just discovered I have another issue. I am using a Technotrend S2-3200 and doing a scan but once finished I have 61 channels which are 'Channel not mapped to a card' in the mapped card types, BBC One HD, Channel 5 HD, nickelodian HD, in fact loads of HD channels.
    I have tried doing a scan with 'Set modulation to Not Set' for SD and HD, and it doesnt seem to make a difference.
    Anyone have any suggestions as to what settings I should use when scanning with this card please?

    Kind regards.

    Go into the card setting and ensure the DVB-S2 is ticked.

    Hi DJBlu, which card setting is this, which page please?

    Kind regards.

    In the Cards List, it isn't in the plugin config. It is part of the TV Setup configuration. The place where you do a normal scan.
