Hi,

I live in western Sydney (Australia) and used to use a shared antenna, but recently purchased a new antenna. This new antenna points at a different transmitter (Kurrajong) than the old one (Sydney CBD), but this new antenna can still pick up the channels from the previous transmitter.

My problem is that MediaPortal still prefers the channels from the old transmitter. I did a channel scan and it seems that for all but one of the FTA channels it chose the Sydney transmitter. I did find a website (http://ozdigitaltv.com/transmitters/NSW/608-Kurrajong-Heights) which shows the frequencies I should enter, but MediaPortal asks for a lot more info, such as channel ID's and other info which wouldn't be easy to find.

Can anyone advise or assist?

Thanks!

    Hello wakkawakka

    I'm not sure exactly what you mean when you say MediaPortal still prefers the channels from the old transmitter. Recommended best practice when switching transmitter would be to delete any old channels and rescan with the correct frequencies for the new transmitter. If MediaPortal doesn't have the tuning details for that transmitter then please submit them here:

    Thanks,
