[QUOTE="denisp, post: 777442, member: 114898"] Wow, this is, by far, the best summary of the different type of video and audio sources. Thank you so much, this will certainly be a reference for a lot of end users. Just a few details, if I may ask. 1) In order to complete your amazing list, a word or two of the type of cable would be useful since Composite and Component and RGB could be easily misunderstood by the non-technical end users. 2) Is there a way to massively change the audio source (video source is easy, you delete all the channels in the TV Channel section, and you set it up to the proper source in the ScheduleDirect plugin/Advanced options while forcing a regeneration on service startup). What is the trick for the audio source (can of important since I understood that you must change [B]all[/B] the video and audio source if you want it to work. 3) When you mention the source in your comments, I assume you are talking about the cable or satellite box (if the box is not setup to use SDPIF, I will never work on SDIPF #2 obviously). 4) How do you know, in which log and which specific term you were able to determine that some channels were working, it is kind of useful when you trying to setup the TV Services and you have to start MediaPortal to check if it work everytime (you must wait for the timeout and message that there is no signal when you are trying to try multiple combination of video and audio source, you are loosing a lot of time.
