[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 798709, member: 82144"] As I've said before: my only experience with SD is looking at the code. From that, I am certain that if you name the channels in MP by the *exact* call sign in SD and untick all the mapping by channel number options in SD then it should work. Once a channel is mapped though, SD won't change the mapping so nothing you do except deleting the channel and scanning it in and re-linking it again (except editing the DB manually) will fix it. You have *got* to use the name *as per SD* for it to work. Use "cict-dt". In this case it would not be about whether MP can do it but whether SD can do it. You have a few options: 1. Name the two channels the same temporarily when setting up the mapping. 2. Manually edit the DB to set the externalId (TV Server does not give direct access to the externalId field). 3. Merge the channels ([URL="http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/03_TV_Channels/1_Combinations"]details[/URL]). At the end of the day, if you don't merge the channels it would simply be a question of whether SD will allow you to assign two channels with the same xmlid. This works with other plugins like the built in XMLTV plugin. Not sure with SD... It depends. As I've said before, your CPU and GPU aren't particularly powerful so they *might* struggle with h.264 video. You haven't given me logs or told me what video format this is so it is a little hard to guess. Also, have you ensured that virus scanners are not monitoring your timeshifting and recording folders? I don't know whether this is good or bad. I find the ATSC and cable systems in Canada and the US *incredibly* confusing. You set it in the SD settings. The option is labeled "force guide update on next TvService startup" ("if this is checked then a guide update will be forced when the TvService next starts"). You tick that then restart the TV service either in the manual control section of TV Server configuration - "stop service"... wait... "start service" - or in the Windows service management area (screenshot -->[URL="http://wiki.remobjects.com/w/images/5/5a/Relativity_Service_Console.png"]here[/URL]<--). Is this a problem because: 1. You didn't expect the music share to be listed in the video section. If so, did you add the music share as a [URL="http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/MediaPortal_Configuration/2_Videos/1_Video_Folders"]video folder[/URL]? 2. You want all shares to be listed by default when you first enter the video section. If so, go to the video folders section in MP configuration and ensure all the folders/shares are unticked, and also untick "remember last used folder". I have no idea what this means - sorry. Best to ask the [URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/my-netflix-539/"]Netflix plugin[/URL] developer (WileECoyote). Remember we can't get Netflix in the rest of the world. mm [/QUOTE]
