[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1163528, member: 82144"] Hello and welcome :) Yes, that is pretty much true. The best you could expect to get from a scan would be the one channel which represents the STB connection. Scanning cannot get you the full Dish channel lineup. I'd disagree with this. You can't import guide information unless you have channels first. As above: even if you managed to get the import errors to go away it wouldn't help you import your channels. Could you please answer the following questions. Getting answers for these is crucial if I'm to be able to help you. [LIST=1] [*]What type of connection have you used to connect the STB (set top box) - RF/coax, composite, s-video, or component? [*]Are you expecting to be able to fully integrate the Dish setup into MediaPortal (all channels in the guide, with EPG, scheduling recordings, MediaPortal controlling the STB with a blaster) or do you just want to be able to see whatever channel the STB is tuned to at the time?
