I have installed MP 1.12 on my HTPC that previously was running WMC and I am unable to find channels through the MP Server config app.

My current setup is a W7 64Bit Pro with a HDHomerun Prime. I have a multi stream cable card from my carrier Verizon FIOS.

I have removed the firewalls on the HTPC and can see the 3 turners for the Cable Card. When I do a digital cable search on those tuners it tells me that no channels are found (However I can view them in HDHomerun software).

    The setup tv logs would tell everyone more...
    This shows there are errors but not how the TV side is setup or errors associated with it.

    From the looks of it so far, it is locating a lot of channels.
    You can click on channels while the scan is happening to see the list.

    then all the channels are red in the channels tab.
    ...and that's a problem because?

    Red just means the channels are encrypted (which they actually are). As the wiki and walkthrough say: enable "CAM" and set decrypt limit to 1. That will tell TV Server that your tuners can tune encrypted channels.

    So yeah, if you follow the information we've provided there shouldn't be any need to get hung up on things like that.
    ...and if you have questions/issues, we're here to help. :)
