    I've been using MP for some time now and I like it, thanks. I am running:
    Dedicated Windows 8 MP 1.7.1 hotfix server
    Hauppauge 2250 Dual TV tuner reported as Win TV 7164
    My cable service, Longview Kilgore, provides 40 channels of digital music.
    My Sony TV displays 89.60 for one of the music channels and it works up from there to 89.99.
    My cable provider website says they are 901 to 941.
    I can hear them clearly on the TV.
    On Wiki page North_American_cable_television_frequencies I find an entry for channel 89 and in the column "IRC Video Carrier" it displays 613.25.
    In the TV Server Configuration, TV Channels, Edit Channel id-name-provider-type-details displays a green circled T and 1248 - Unknown 89-60 - Cable - ATSC - 89 0:0. Edit Tuning detail lists
    Channel 89
    Frequency: 613250
    Major: 0
    Minor: 0
    Modulation: 256 QAM
    Transport ID: 1120
    Service ID: 60
    Source ID: 0
    PMT PID: 50
    Provider: Cable
    and the Free to Air box is checked.

    When I tune MP to this channel or select Preview in TV Server I get an error message that says no video/ no audio detected. I cleared my log files, created the error and posted.

    As much as I have read/searched I have not discovered an answer. It must be something simple but it has eluded me.
    I apologize if it is in the instructions and I missed it.
    Anyone out there have a suggestion for me to try.
    BTW TV, Moves (BluRay, HD, DVD, etc.), and Local Music Files all work fine.
    Thanks.[DOUBLEPOST=1404148570][/DOUBLEPOST]Additionally, I have an external antenna connected to the radio connector on the 2250 and I receive local over the air radio stations. They work fine.

    Hello David

    The issue seems to be that these channels have been scanned in as TV channels, so TV Server is expecting (and failing) to find a video stream with them.

    Could you please do a full rescan of your channels and provide the log files? I'd like to see if there is some way that we could make the scanning logic recognise these as radio channels.

    Regards,
    mm

    I did not delete all my channels first. Do you need me to delete, then scan. Also, is it possible to edit the DB and move the channel from TV to Radio?
    Thanks for your help.

    I may give that a try. It would be better to have it work as you want it to work. Again, thanks for looking into this matter.

    OK, I made the changes to the DB and it is all working. Thanks a ton.

    Now, if you want me to test anything, let me know. I would be happy to be part of the process.
