I am having a whole lot of issues trying to get this working via the SQL server, mostly at the point where you set up channels.

It correctly found that there is a digital tuner, analog, and radio on the USB stick. Since I'm really only interested in using QAM SD and clearQAM HD channels, I performed a scan using the digital tuner only.

It found over 100+ channels, including the clearQAM HD channels I was looking for. Most of them display perfectly when I click "Preview" in the server setup.

However...

Once I go into "My TV", things get ugly. I find that I am still able to access the SD QAM channels, however when i select an HD clearQAM one, I get "unable to timeshift / no card available" or somesuch. It will not allow me to tune into my local HD channels that worked just fine under "Preview".

Can someone help me get this working correctly?

Also important, ultimately: how do you acquire channel name/schedule data? While it detected the channels ok, they are all "Unknown" and their numeric code. How do you get the schedule/name dat, other than typing it in manually?

I appreciate anyone's help on both issues, thanks! :D
