Tv Setup - US - Charter Cable (1 Viewer)

[dsteinmann]

I have been using Media Center for about 10 years, I Think I want to switch to MP.

I'm in the US and have Charter Digital Cable with Cable Card on a Centon Quad Tuner.

I scanned the Channels under Digital Cable and it Couldn't Find anything If I switch to ATSC and Standard QAM it finds some. This is the Step im at currently, Which way should I choose, Then next I guess I need channel Maps and Guide right?

If I got to TV selection in MP anything under TV when I click brings me back to the main menu nothing happens Im guessing that I need to map the channels

Welcome to the forum, and to Media Portal.

I don't know if this will help, but this link might get you started. There is also work being done on the Wiki for setting up cable card.

note: the patches provided in this link are pre MP 1.5. They are built into 1.5.

Hello and welcome!

Great - should be no problem.

I scanned the Channels under Digital Cable and it Couldn't Find anything If I switch to ATSC and Standard QAM it finds some. This is the Step im at currently, Which way should I choose, Then next I guess I need channel Maps and Guide right?

I recommend that you follow the information in the first post of this thread:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/cablecard-tuner-support-for-mediaportal-1.112585/

Start at "Continuing with configuration...".
You'll see there are a few links to information about guide setup at the end.

No, I don't think so. If you're using the Titan skin, try selecting TV with the keyboard (Titan is designed for use with a remote or keyboard - there are a few kinks when using it with a mouse). Otherwise, confirm that the TV plugin is installed and enabled in the "plugins" section of MediaPortal configuration.
