[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1076725, member: 82144"] Hello and welcome Alex :) So, you're using an HDHR3-US, right? Not the CableCARD HDHR? Either way, please take a look here for a bit of information about scanning: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/02_TV_Servers/7b_Scan_ATSC[/url] For scanning with any HDHR, first ensure TVService.exe and SetupTv.exe have full access to your network (ie. firewall not blocking them from "seeing" the HDHR). For scanning cable with the HDHR3-US you should be selecting tuning mode "clear QAM cable". For QAM tuning frequencies, I can't say it any better than the wiki says it: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/02_TV_Servers/7b_Scan_ATSC#QAM_tuning_frequencies[/url] In other words, start with "QAM standard", then try the other options as directed if channels are not found. [B]Let the scans run all the way through[/B]. I know it takes time (about 20 minutes per full scan), but cancelling early is not advisable. You should not always expect TV Server to find all the channels straightaway. Remember that scanning goes by [I]physical[/I] channels. Example: channel 7-1 is not necessarily carried on physical channel 7; it could be physical channel 50 for all I know. If none of the options work, you can also try using the ATSC network provider instead of the generic one (generic normally recommended): [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/02_TV_Servers#Edit_Tuner_Settings[/url] In fact you might want to try the ATSC network provider first. I recall other people saying the HDHR only works with ATSC and not with generic. Finally, if you're totally stuck you can always post log files for us to take a look at: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/16_Support/3_Forums/2_Log_Files[/url] Use option 3 to dump your existing logs to a zip file for easy attach/upload. mm [/QUOTE]
