[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1203977, member: 82144"] I think I see the problem. Does your code still do this: [URL]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/programatic-way-to-change-channels-on-mp-1-15-client.135299/#post-1202786[/URL] [code] Dim selectChannel As TvDatabase.Channel = myitem.Tag Dim tuningDetail As TvDatabase.TuningDetail = selectChannel.ReferringTuningDetail(0) Dim myChannel As TvLibrary.Channels.ATSCChannel = New TvLibrary.Channels.ATSCChannel() myChannel.FreeToAir = tuningDetail.FreeToAir myChannel.Frequency = tuningDetail.Frequency myChannel.IsRadio = tuningDetail.IsRadio myChannel.IsTv = tuningDetail.IsTv myChannel.MajorChannel = tuningDetail.MajorChannel myChannel.MinorChannel = tuningDetail.MinorChannel myChannel.Name = tuningDetail.Name myChannel.NetworkId = tuningDetail.NetworkId myChannel.PmtPid = tuningDetail.PmtPid myChannel.Provider = tuningDetail.Provider myChannel.ServiceId = tuningDetail.ServiceId myChannel.TransportId = tuningDetail.TransportId[/code] If yes, that's where the problem is.
