[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1062449, member: 82144"] Okay. In that case I'm not sure how to proceed. Basically we need some way to verify that it is possible for some other software that only supports copy-freely (ie. not WMC) to view that channel. If that other software could do it then we can say it is some kind of TV Server problem and I have to start wracking my brains to figure out what is going on. Otherwise we'd know that the channel is probably not copy-freely and it isn't possible to view it in MediaPortal no matter what you do. N-PVR or any other software that uses SageDCT, MythTV... not sure about other options. If Ceton has preview/test software like HDHR QuickTV then that would also work. The other thing we could do is use the tuner web page to attempt to tune that channel and see what it shows for the CCI flags. -10 dBmV seems a little low to me. I think I've read in various places that -15 dBmV is basically unlockable and -12 is bare minimum. This might explain the discontinuities. Have you got splitters and/or amplifiers between the cable feed to your house and the Ceton tuner input? If so, I'd suggest you try temporarily removing them and see if it makes a difference to the readings and the discontinuities. Yes, that does seem high... though some computer cards - especially video cards - don't have a problem operating at those temperatures. I quote from Ceton's knowledgebase: [url]http://cetoncorp.com/support/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/3/0/infinitv4-temperature[/url] So you're definitely getting up there, but probably not at the limit. Okay. No problem - that's what we're here for. :) mm [/QUOTE]
