[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1163747, member: 82144"] Hello again Thank you for the answers. Not at all. Your goal is definitely possible. It's just that the setup processes you've been trying up until now aren't the right processes. As I said above: getting such a setup working is possible. Honestly, it's not going to be as easy as with WMC... but it is possible. It will take some time (like maybe a week of tinkering), but if you're willing to put in the time then I'm confident you will be successful. If you want to go ahead, the first step is to wipe the slate clean. Delete any and all of the channels in the "TV Channels" section of TV Server Configuration. Second step is to go to the scanning section for the analog side of your HVR-2255. I mean the section that looks like this: [URL]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/02_TV_Servers/7_Scan_Analog#Scanning[/URL] Click "add s-video channels". This will add one channel per external input (composite, component etc.) to the TV Channels list. Third step is to go back to the "TV Channels" section and use the preview function to figure out which input/channel is the one that is connected to the STB. Given what you said about how you've connected the STB, I'd expect it to be one of the channels named like "S-Video...". Fourth step is to sign up for an account at the SchedulesDirect website: [URL]http://schedulesdirect.org/[/URL] Note: the point of signing up is to enable you to easily import the Dish channel lineup. You can get rid of the account after the setup is done if you don't want to keep it. The free trial is enough to get the setup done. Fifth step is to install the SchedulesDirect plugin. You can do this via the MediaPortal Extension Installer (should be a link on your desktop, or in the Team MediaPortal section of your start menu). Once you get to this point, let me know and I'll give you the next instructions. [/QUOTE]
