Yes, however I wasn't sure that the details there were correct (people often forget to update them), especially considering that they say you're using MP 1.2.3.MP version is in System Specs under my user name at left, isn't it?
Almost certainly not... but then MP 1.2.3 is so old that it's hard to remember much about its nitty gritty details.Specifically, would these numbers be the ones defined here
Yes -- because it still works. I've looked and even installed MP2 a couple of times (on a separate W7 disk), and have the latest version to try. But so far, it hasn't worked right for basic record/playback TV, and I don't really like the way it looks (ie, the available skins -- I want SIMPLE!!!!!)Are you really still using MP 1.2.3?
OK -- but a little hard to believe that 'someone' would just make up different numbers, when cable TV frequencies and associated channel numbers are well defined and readily available. Seems to me that I saw the actual tuned frequencies somewhere ---Almost certainly not...
That's fine and entirely up to you. Use whatever version you prefer. I'd note:Yes -- because it still works.

Respectfully, I think you're mixing up physical channel numbers with logical/virtual channel numbers.OK -- but a little hard to believe that 'someone' would just make up different numbers, when cable TV frequencies and associated channel numbers are well defined and readily available. Seems to me that I saw the actual tuned frequencies somewhere ---
(on the other hand, I have seen a few things that didn't actually exist, and vice versa)
However, I really don't understand what you mean be this -- maybe because I don't have MP setup to respond to remote control channel input.Those are the numbers that you use to select a channel with a remote control.
MP works the same way if you punch in numbers on a keyboard.maybe because I don't have MP setup to respond to remote control channel input.
Don't quote me on this, but I think 1.2.3 goes through the channel group and selects the first channel with the matching number.how can a 'channel number' select a channel when 2 or more channels have the same number?
Because there are usually multiple channels broadcast on/within each frequency or physical channel.And since the frequencies/physical channel numbers are available, why not use them?
If you had told me this initially I could have possibly been more helpful.Frequencies are what I'm after, and I'll get then from the tuning detail.
Sorry, that's not possible because a given TV Server channel can be comprised of more than one "provider channel".Would be nice if they were readily available in a list like 'All Channels' above.
