[QUOTE="Doobs, post: 1146968, member: 154079"] Hi Ron, I appreciate the response, but unfortunately, still having a problem. I unchecked everything in the DVB settings, which did not help. The reason the channels are mapped on only one tuner... with my antenna, I can get 40 something channels.... kind of. I really only am interested in the basic locals, nbc, abc, cbs, fox... so I had mapped those to both tuners, and nothing else.... so only those would show up, and only those would be mapped for epg... etc. When I had both tuners configured that way, it was working fine. After getting webepg working, and losing the tv, I mapped the other channels to 1 tuner, to see if I could watch one of those, thinking maybe my channel mapping for EPG had somehow corrupted those channels I had also gotten epg for. This did not work... still can't watch any channel. As for debug on the homerun... I don't think the issue is there. With homerun view, and wmc... I can STILL watch tv. It's only in the mediaportal tv plugin that I get channel not found. Here's a screenshot of watching live tv on homerun view, while simultaneouly getting a channel error in MP. The only other step that occurred, that I can't believe has anything to do with anything, is the first time I configured webepg, I went straight to imdb.com with my zip code (48170) and mapped channels accordingly. using this link [URL]http://www.imdb.com/tvgrid/2015-08-06/2000/?zip=48170[/URL] I mapped wdiv to NBC, wwj to cbs, etc. I grabbed EPG, and it worked. Went into mediaportal, and could watch tv, and had program guide info... For everything except fox. Fox returned only local programming for 24 hours... which makes sense, as that's what IMDB reports. [URL]http://www.imdb.com/tvgrid/2015-08-06/Fox/[/URL] I then ammended the link in imdb.com file in the grabber folder, to use site url [URL]http://www.imdb.com/tvgrid/2015-08-06/2000/?zip=48170&hit_go=1&tv_prov=MI02206[/URL]. This changed my mappings from wdiv-hd = NBC to wdiv-hd=wdiv, and so on.
