[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 792525, member: 82144"] Hi again Three things... First, you're very close to getting the Avermedia tuner working. You just need to change one or two settings: 1. Open TV Server configuration. 2. Expand the TV Servers node on the left. 3. Select your TV Server - you should now see the tuner list on the right. 4. Select the Avermedia ATSC tuner and click "edit". 5. Change the "when card enters idle state..." setting to "stop card". 6. Click "save". 7. Go to scan again (TV Server will automatically restart). If it still doesn't work then go back to that same place and try changing "preferred network provider" to ATSC.
