[QUOTE="enchant, post: 1246151, member: 72572"] Thanks for the info. I won't need that sort of setup, as I'm only going to be watching (and not recording) one channel at a time. Several months back, we switched from a full triple-play cable package (phone/400 channels tv/internet) to purely internet, but the cable company still delivers about 50 channels down the wire. We gave back the cable box and simply plug the wire into the tv and let its tuner decode them. However, we're only interested in about five of the 50 channels, and I'm assuming that I'll be able to configure Mediaportal to only display what I want in a nice package, rather than having to hit the up-channel button 30 times to get to channel 66-2. We primarily watch previously recorded TV ("Videos" on MediaPortal). Most of the rest of what we watch is streamed via Firestick. But from time to time we want to catch the weather on our local channels. [/QUOTE]
