    The major thing missing for me in Mediaportal is USALS support - I know it can be fudged by using another prog to move the dish and storing the positions, but it is a right royal pain..

    It doesn't look like something that will be added either which is a shame.

    At present I don't have my motorised dish connected up to my HTPC otherwise I would try out Sky Italia for you!

    I've had this running for a day now, and it's spot on, thanks DJBlu :)

    It's just the wind thats the trouble at the minute. My dish is getting blown around like a good en, Once it has calmed down I will be able to run it with no problems.

    Just run the scanner so you get your channels.

    Then go into the Radio EPG grabber and enable the Freesat Grabber channel. Then you will have all the EPG

    I've tested the sky italy grabber. All channels seems to be imported but the problem is many of them are not correctly sorted or inserted in the correct group.

    For instance MAN-GA , Sky Sport 3 HD, cinema max HD and many others. Let me know if you need logs.

    Thanks

    Can I ask this,

    In Italy are you able to connect your Sky Digi box to DTT also? I am getting a few channels that do not have Tuning details and I beleive it is because they are DVB-T channels.

    been using the latest series link version for a couple days now and all seems to be working just as it should do - series link works great, everything appears to be stable and updating properly - very good work DJ Blu!
