TV Server Configuration:
In both MP versions 1.0.2 & 1.10 are the network ID's and starting frequentie from the Dutch Cable provider Ziggo wrong.
Result in MP: He find all channels, but you can't watch or listen them. The symbol stays red. Only Nederland-1, Ziggo info channel, Nicleon, Omroep Frysland are green and visible. All radio channels are red as well.
2 years ago, Casema, Multikabel, home, Caiway, Delta, Rekam and a couple lokal networks merge together till the new provider Ziggo. Every region still use their own network ID and starting frequentie. Network ID 1000 is Ziggo's main ID, sending the main signal to the several regions in their network. Every region has his own network ID and starting frequentie.

Here is a list with region ID's and starting frequentie: Digitale Kabeltelevisie - Netwerktabel

The second list are the transponders and TV/radio stations frequentie: Zenderindeling Ziggo/@Home

For my area Brabant-Limburg is listed in MP: ID 1000 frequentie 456.
Ziggo notice: Brabant-Limburg: ID 1111 Frequentie 356
Result: Ziggo's smartcard in your CAM device blockt nearly all channels. because digital adress is wrong.

geert, is this still applicable for 1.1 alpha? how do you reset this?

i have been searching for channels in frequency 1111 (reqion venlo) however, i can't find squad with the transponder. However, i am not sure if this is depending on the change as you suggest or internally for my htpc, worked fine in mediaportal 1.0.2 (performed clean installation for windows 7 and newest driver for floppy dtv)

Hello Geert,

Red symbol just means that this is a crambled channel.
I use MP 1.0.2 and can watch the "red channels" also.
If you can't you have an issue with your CAM.

Hi Geert,

Why don't you just let the MP-server search the channels ?
You then will get the right ones.
The red channels are the encrypted indeed.

Hi all,

i try to install MediaPortal in Drenthe with Ziggo Cable, but unfortunately this isn't listed in de list of providers...
Can anyone please explain to me how i will be able to scan channels?

I now only have NEDERLAND 1 and Ziggo TV

JP2011 you have certain transponder list. i am using 1111, which is ziggo. you just have to search for which transponder list you have to choose, is Drenthe not 9005???

Hi, thanks for the feedback i don't Know.. Where can i find is? My zipcode is 7800?

I just found this tool: Transponderlist Generator; altijd actueel

Very easy and create an reg file.. But how can i enter this in mediaportal ? Or is it not neccesary?

the link you provided is easy to see which region you are located. so, you transponder code has to match that region (thus for mi ziggo 1111 limburg brabant)

ah that is the beauty of the program. in de tv server configuration you have TV-servers - and then your pc (in my case htpc) and then the tuners. I have a firedtv tuner. When you click on the tuner you can start the scanning. Just select the country and then you region/provider. when you select scan for channels you wil see that it starts adding channels.

if you are using firedtv tuner, enable your cam in the first menu (tvservers - click on the comp pc name) and click on the firedtv cards. click edit and enable your cam. otherwise you will see scrambled tv all of the time.

good luck
