[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1091545, member: 82144"] The problem will almost certainly be the Windows firewall, not the Comcast router. Should be easy to check by temporarily disabling that firewall and seeing that it changes the scan results. There is a MediaPortal (MediaPortal.exe), MediaPortal configuration (Configuration.exe), TV Server service/background-process (TVService.exe) and TV Server configuration (SetupTv.exe). TVService.exe is the main one to get right for TV Server. SetupTv also needs [limited] access in order to communicate with TVService.exe (communication between MediaPortal/TV Server exes uses the network adaptor, even when they all run on the same PC). Still the firewall problem as mentioned above. Technically it is unnecessary to scan with more than one tuner, though I don't think it would do any harm. Once you've scanned one tuner you'll find it's actually faster to map/link those channels to the other two tuners than scan them individually. From a TV Server [I]scanning [/I]perspective it shouldn't matter that you're watching live TV in QuickTV... though live TV and recording are another story. You'd have to stop QuickTV that if you wanted to use live TV or record with MediaPortal. [/QUOTE]
