[QUOTE="Kirky99, post: 684103, member: 108659"] I'm having a hard time scanning for channels. I've used the guide posted and that was helpful on one PC, however I am now trying to get a good scan on another PC with no success. I have 1 HDHomerun ATSC on my network, it is detected on both machines. The first machine is a full blown desktop. I installed MP 1.1 (TVServer only) and ran the config, scanned the HDHomerun tuner (Tune QAM Instead of ATSC - QAM Std Alternative) and the result was about 38 or so usable channels. I quickly found out NOT to use a wireless PC as a TV server, so I'm looking to move this to a HTPC. Same software (or so I think) and doing the same scan against the same HDHomerun device results in 0 channels found. In looking at the results, there are many channels that say No signal, but a lot that say Nothing found. While watching the scan, I do see that the signal level and quality are very high on the channels where nothing was found. The only difference I can see between the two PCs is one is an AMD Desktop (Athlon X2 3400+ I believe) the other is a Atom 330 ION. The HDHomerun config on the Atom machine DOES find the 38 channels. I have also tried the 1.2Alpha with no success... Any suggestions?
