Thanks for your reply.

I've managed to get it working, give or take a 2 / 3 reinstalls of the mediaportal application and database

I finally managed to master it using the DVB-C epg only. I had a few complete fails scanning the analog tuners on the Hauppauge PVR 500MCE (Not Hauppaugs fault, just the analog signal quality), both being on the same board and coax cable came back with different scan results and different channel names.

What I did was the following (bullet listing style):
* setup mediaportal to use the DVB-C card
* Scan the channels (dvb, always the correct scan) and epg
* manually add channels for analog
* Map the manually added channels to the correct analog tuners.
* combined the digital and analog channels by using the digital channels as primary.

After that I threw in the MediaPortal Web Interface (MediaPortal Web Interface) and logo's.. and finally I have my digital + analog combined in a single EPG.

Only downside is that my Digital EPG contains only 3 days of data.. and the analog webepg should be able to fetch 7. But that doesn't matter. My wife accepted the 3 day EPG, so I'm in the clear

[QUOTE="rroet, post: 289215, member: 80332"] Thanks for your reply. I've managed to get it working, give or take a 2 / 3 reinstalls of the mediaportal application and database :) I finally managed to master it using the DVB-C epg only.
