In other words, you have 3 tuners. The channel you're trying to tune is only mapped to 1 out of 3 tuners. That 1 tuner appears to be in use [by other software].
...and so TV Server is unable to tune the channel.

Did you intend to only map your channels to 1 tuner?
Is it possible/likely that the tuner is being used by something else?

Thanks for the clues, I should try to read the log myself and maybe save myself from ignorant errors...
Indeed, WMC runs on other PCs and one may have been using the tuner, but I've also had problems with WMC releasing tuners at times...
On the other hand, I thought I read in the docs that if the tuners are identical (HDHomeRun), I'd only need to map one and all three would use the same map.
At any rate, I mapped the other tuners and preview is now working!
Goodnight

Happy to help any time.

I also got the license terms screen twice:

Also errors on startup with StreamingServer.dll which I traced to missing VS2013 x86 redist (disclaimer: I'm running the server on WHS 2011 which is an unsupported platform).
