[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1042919, member: 82144"] Hello and welcome AncientYoof :) The HD-PVR can't "scan" like a regular tuner, so you'd have to find a way of importing or creating the channels. Many people in the US and Canada use the SchedulesDirect plugin for this. You could also use the import/export functionality in TV Server configuration. The exported file is an XML file... which is to say that you can edit it in any text editor. With a bit of copy and paste, you can create the channels that way much quicker than you probably could through the user interface. People do this. They feed the STB output into their HTPC with an HD-PVR or similar, and use an IR blaster or some other means to have MP control the STB. The STB becomes like an external tuner card. Complex to setup, but it can be done. mm [/QUOTE]
