Hi all

I am trying to get RTL for F1 and can't find the channel i know i have the right sat as i can get the Servus Tv Hd channels @ 73% strength and 88% quality but can't even get RTL in a new channel scan.

Can anyone help with this

    Hi.
    I can help, but not at this moment. My TV Server is doing some records atm. That's why I don't want to start TVServer Config. Later I can attach channel details here or, if you prefer, an export.xml...
    The right Satellite is Astra 19,2 East, just in case.

    Hi.

    Start TV Server Config, navigate to Import/Export tab and import attached XML. After that map wanted channel(s) to your TV Card(s) and delete all unwanted channels. Then you should be able to watch RTL (and other channels, if you wish).

    Hi.
    Did you test RTL2 also? It's on the same transponder as RTL.
    And you can try RTL Austria, RTL FS, RTL HB NDS, RTL HH SH. All the same program as RTL Television excerpt of some local news...

    Hi.
    A look at your logs tell there is a huge problem with your TV Server Database. Seems like a miracle you can watch some channel at all. Maybe you need to repair DB first, then scan again. If you have standard MP paths, passwords and files you can use a two line batch to repair DB:
    Code:
    cd c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin
    mysqlcheck.exe -u root -pMediaPortal --auto-repair --all-databases
    If you don't use standards you have to modify the batch to fit your setup.

    Then try again to scan channels. or import xml ...

    Thanks for all your help on this, i will do a clean os install tonight and then a fresh Mp install to clear those error logs.

    As for the RTL i have been testing all day and it now appears that its my lnb that is shot, as i can't get any of the higher band frequencies (tested on 28.2E and there are quite a few missing) and as i use a fixed dish on 28.2E i didn't notice anything when i powered up the motorised dish as i went straight to 19E.

    Thanks again

    Robert
