[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1175440, member: 82144"] Hello and welcome! :) You've done really well to get to this point. Blaster setups certainly aren't easy. (y) My guess is that you're running a 64 bit version of Windows, and therefore you're getting hit by this known bug: [URL]https://issues.team-mediaportal.com/browse/MP1-2959[/URL] To work around this you will need to modify the channel-to-frequency lookup table in the Windows registry. Attached is a registry update script that makes the required modifications, according to the details provided by Microsoft -->[URL='http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd375809%28v=vs.85%29.aspx']here[/URL]<--. The script creates overrides for channels 1 through 999 that will cause the tuner to tune to 67.25 MHz (ie. channel 4, which is what you said the output channel for the set top box is) instead of the normal frequency. To apply the registry script: unzip it, then right click on the "Fix Frequency Overrides.reg" file and click "merge". You'll need to do that with administrative privileges, so expect a user account control dialog to popup and ask your permission to run the script. Note: I always recommend extreme caution when applying registry changes. This script should only make the change described above, however despite my best intentions it is always possible that I have made mistakes (...because I'm human!). For that reason I encourage you to check the script for yourself (*.reg files can be opened in any text editor - notepad, wordpad etc.). Ultimately it is your choice as to whether you decide to run the script or not. I will not take responsibility for the possible consequences of that choice, but I will be here to assist if something goes wrong. For anybody else that's reading this thread in future... In case it wasn't clear, if your set top box RF/coax output does not use channel 4 then this script will not work for you. Let me know and I'll be happy to provide scripts for other channel numbers.
