First of all I'd like to congratulate the MediaPortal team on a great piece of software which I have been using for just over a week now on my new HTPC. What a fantastic piece of kit.
Where I live (UK) I am unable to use DTV-T due to geography so rely on DTV-S for TV reception. MediaPortal picked up my Hauppauge HVR3000 card without any problems and on scanning for new channels found all of those expected (over 400) except BBC THREE/CBBC and CITV. I have attempted to add these manually using the MP config tool in Television->Channels->Add and adding the PIDs, PCR and other info which I manage to obtain. However, on trying to select them for viewing in MP, a window pops up reporting that the tuner is unable to access the channel. I notice that no equivalent database file (binary) appears for the channel in MP's DB folder.
Am I doing something wrong? I'm pretty sure that I have the PIDs and PCR info correct. Why might MP not pick up TV channels on the same frequency as other streams it does find? Any help on this would be much appreciated.
