I just needed to move the Hauppauge tuner card in my Windows 7 computer to another slot and now my interface with Schedules Direct has disappeared. I can't find any way to get it to work. How do I do this?

    AFAIK, SchedulesDirect shouldn't have anything to do with the placement of your tuner card, it interfaces with the channels listed in your TV Server to gather EPG. The TV Server determines which channels are free to switch to or record from. Did you try to rescan your channels in TV Config and make sure your channels were assigned properly to the card? When I added and removed HDHR tuners from TV Server, I didn't have to deal with the SchedulesDirect plugin at all.

    I didn't think it would either yet it did. I can watch live TV and record TV shows so I know that the tuner card has been properly scanned and configured. Nonetheless, the Schedules Direct problem exists.

    Further complicating things is that recorded programs can be played back in Media Portal but cannot be found in the directory I specified for recordings or anywhere else on the computer. This is a problem I posted in another thread.

    I found the missing recorded TV shows and corrected the settings so that they now land in the directory that I want. I still need to get Schedules Direct to work and will work on that problem next.

    Using some tips I found in other threads I was able to get Schedules Direct to work but it now presents me with a new problem, the channels are listed in no particular order. How can I get it listed in numerical order?

    It would be considerably helpful to ppl who might experience the same difficulties in their set-up if you could explain briefly what hints you found helpful, and what steps did the job for you. :)

    The channel scan numbers don't always line up the same as the broadcasters' channel number. You should be able to sort your channels in TV Server config -> TV Channels and they will be sorted this way in the Guide.

    Actually I solved this myself. I did have the correct driver (it was the only one which would work). But on the drivers download page, there was an additional item called "TBS6281se V2 Change Mode Tool". There was zero documentation to accompany this. I downloaded it and ran it. It is a tool to detect the current run state of both...

    Thanks guys. Ok, spent the (whole) weekend on this lol. First; TVHeadend/Kodi.... Nah. Given up on that - 'non-tech'; its horrible. 'Tech' - a few reasons but mostly that it is buggy. It is actually a real shame as it does have potential and promises a lot (was great to have Kodi on my phone and be able to watch live/recordings...

    Brief update... Hauppauge support responded quickly, stating that the "driver for all of our product confirm to the BDA format". Not sure what that means, but to test that, I downloaded a copy of Capture4Me, and indeed, it switches LNBs without any issues with minimal configuration (just set DiSEqC to 1.x A/B/C/D and select the...
