[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1301923, member: 141969"] Sadly, it seems that development of MP2 has come to a stop. Perhaps it will restart in the future. Meanwhile... MP1 has a "Tuning Details" panel that displays signal strength, signal quality, and picture resolution. It is updated in real time when viewing a channel: [ATTACH]215903[/ATTACH] However, perhaps you are already aware of this, but prefer MP2 over MP1. :eek: In "TV Server Config" on the "Scan for Channels" panel, look for a setting called [b]Enable channel movement detection[/b]. This setting exists for DVB-T; I don't know whether it also exists for ATSC. You should usually select this setting, as it will (as far as is possible) avoid the generation of duplicate channels (note: it is not 100% effective). It also preserves any channel renames that you have performed, and the selected/not-selected status of channels. Unfortunately, this setting is not selected by default, so you need to remember to select it each time that you rescan for channels. :( If you want to reset your channel list, you should manually delete all existing channels before scanning for channels. That will avoid the generation of duplicate channels, but (of course) you lose any channel renames that you have performed, and the selected/not-selected status of channels. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
