[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 751670, member: 82144"] I think you're pretty much on the right track for a start. :) Use the preview button with each channel in the list to find the right input (the one that has video and possibly audio). I suspect it will be one of the YRYBY channels. Once you've found the right channel, edit it and change the audio setting from "auto" to the correct setting. You many have to restart TV Server for the setting to take effect. Once you've figured that out then you're ready to get your channels. There are 3 options: 1. Use SchedulesDirect and have the channels created automatically with the associated EPG mappings sorted. 2. Use another source (XMLTV based) to get EPG and a DB script to create the channels. 3. Use another source (XMLTV based) to get EPG and add each channel manually. Those are probably in order of pain from lowest to highest. :D;) The net outcome of all of those approaches would be a DB with one channel record and one tuningdetail record for each channel supplied by your cable provider. The tuning detail would be a carbon copy of the tuning detail associated with the [tweaked] channel created by the "add s-video channels" button (except the channelID would be different). The channel records would be named and numbered as per the names of the channels. If that all seems too complex then I'd highly recommend you go with the first option. There is a chance that I could write some kind of script to automate this, however I'm not making a promise (because I may not be able to keep it) and you may find it just as difficult.
