    Hello and welcome :)

    Please can you be more specific about what you need help with.
    It looks like you've scanned in all your channels successfully. You should be able to open MediaPortal and view them... so I'm not sure exactly what you're struggling with.

    This is what it looks like when i go to my epg http://i.minus.com/ibs1DhLYeOzn7e.png
    That is normal.
    When using a CableCARD, ATSC or clear QAM tuner, you need to provide TV Server with guide data. This is because the guide data is not available from the broadcast stream (technically data is available for some ATSC streams, but TV Server is unable to grab it). If you're used to Windows Media Center: Microsoft pays for the WMC guide data. We don't have the funds to do that. You need to source guide data for yourself.

    MediaPortal Wiki

    Options:
    1. mc2xml + XMLTV plugin
    2. WebGrab+ + XMLTV plugin (note the section on customising for your location: "If you are in North, Central or South America...).
    3. IMDB + WebEPG plugin.
    4. SchedulesDirect plugin.

    I'm not sure what the issue was, but I decided to try a different way of solving the problem. My server has a 2.5Gbps port and the 10Gbps card I added, so I've connected the HD Homerun directly to the 2.5G port, and its solved the problem, I can now copy large multiple files to the server and not suffer with picture issues. There is...

    I have not experienced that myself, and I don't know of any reason why that might occur (but my knowledge of how TV Server works is not extensive). It is strange that you mention this because there are now four DVB-T channels in the UK that behave in the same way (this is new for the UK). I think that these might be some sort of...

    Hi, I found the problem in my configuration without PowerDVD. In the past I had configured the following setting: "Use internal Blu-ray menu player" and it works - slowly but it worked fine. As described, this suddenly stopped working after an update in the last few months. Yesterday, as a test, I deactivated this check box and it...
