[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1286004, member: 141969"] This is as predicted by [USER=128337]@joecrow[/USER] . (y) So Germany is one of those countries where you need to grab from one channel in each MUX. In terms of the limits: [LIST] [*]The maximum number of grabber channels required is equal to the number of MUXes (one channel from each MUX). [*]The minimum number of grabber channels required is one (one channel from one MUX; this is the situation in the UK). [/LIST] But in general the optimal number of grabber channels may be between these two limits (for example, if one provider owns more than one MUX). The empirical way to arrive at the optimal setup is now to select one of the major channels that still lacks EPG info (probably from a different provider), and then use "Manual Control" to reload the EPG and review the results in the MP client. Keep repeating this until all channels have EPG info. Once you have a complete EPG using the optimal number of grabber channels, we can look at your "PowerScheduler" settings to arrive at the best setup for your HTPC. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
