[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1063467, member: 82144"] Hello again PatM There is a way to do it through MP which is 100% equivalent to tweaking the registry. Edit the tuning details for the channels: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/03_TV_Channels/Add_or_Edit_a_Channel[/url] [IMG]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/@api/deki/files/2582/=Tuning_detail_1_Analog-TV.png[/IMG] Set the frequency to the frequency corresponding with channel 3. It will be sixty something MHz - 61.25 if I recall correctly. For other people reading, this frequency is country dependent. 61.25 is USA's channel 3. YMMV. Having said that... I strongly recommend that you consider other options if at all possible. Several reasons: [LIST=1] [*]Coax/RF connection usually gives the lowest possible video/audio quality. Even composite (yellow RCA) would be better. [*]Applying these frequency overrides (as they're called - [url]http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd375809%28v=vs.85%29.aspx[/url]) is not guaranteed to work reliably. [/LIST] Further, if you're intending to have the Colossus and tuner share channels... well I'm sorry to say I don't think you're going to get it to work unless the two cards are using the same inputs.
