[QUOTE="natrlhy, post: 109900, member: 23624"] This looks like spachti is attempting to have this plugin tune his DishNetwork receiver to these digital/HD channels on his receiver. I get these types of channels on my HTL-HD receiver (DirecTV subscriber) as well, but I have never been able to have this plugin tune to these types of channels. I use the Zap2it plugin to get my EPG data and when I created my zap2it account, there is no way to have it obtain these digital/HD channels. They have to be setup as an ATSC channel that are autoscanned with an ATSC card installed in my HTPC (I have the Vbox DTA-150 and the USB 3650 external tuners for this). As far as I know there is not a way to "autotune" any channels connected to an external STB (set-top box, AKA receiver). This is why the zap2it plugin is such a lifesaver due to the fact that it creates all the channels for my selections on my zap2it account. The only channels that are not created are the digital channels that can be received by the HTL-HD receiver. Unless there is a way to modify this plugin to change channels such as 3-2 or 9-1, the only way to do this is to get an ATSC card and autotune the digital channels that way. It would be very cool if somehow this plugin could be modified to be able to tune to these types of channels. :D [/QUOTE]
