[QUOTE="patrick, post: 126189, member: 12502"] elektrik, OK, couple of things. 1) IIRC, Mediaportal is not setup to allow external channels from a STB to come in over the coax to the PVR-150. Would be nice if it did. (I think someone got it working but had to manually hack the database to make it work). This is probably why you say you only get the one channel. Reason is, this type of setup requires 2 steps, 1-tuning the PVR-150 to a channel (maybe 4) to receive the signal, and then 2-tuning the STB to the channel you want to view. You will have to switch back to svideo. 2) Your log indicates the external channel for the STB is not valid [code]DirecTV TUNE Message Recieved: woai[/code] It needs to be the channel number on the STB you want to view, either numeric like "2" or "24" (w/o quotes) or 2-1 if you are tuning a major/minor channel.
