[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1028274, member: 82144"] Yes. This is also the underlying cause of all the problems that you're seeing. Yes and no. The SDT and NIT PIDs also help you to get full channel information (name, encrypted/free, number, type) in the scan. I don't quite agree. To be clear, the fact that the channel is in the PAT and SDT means that it would be found even if the PMT PID is blocked. If you were to allow only the PAT and correct PMT PID then you would get one channel... but it would have no name and EPG might not work. Yes, I agree. Yes, I understand this example too.
