[QUOTE="djbarney, post: 841142, member: 118700"] Hi, transponder frequencies sometimes seem to jump around like jumping beans ! But there is an answer ! Here is my updated tuning XML file for Lancaster, UK. [CODE]<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <ArrayOfDVBTTuning xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <DVBTTuning> <Frequency>521800</Frequency> <BandWidth>8</BandWidth> <Offset>167</Offset> </DVBTTuning> <DVBTTuning> <Frequency>497800</Frequency> <BandWidth>8</BandWidth> <Offset>167</Offset> </DVBTTuning> <DVBTTuning> <Frequency>474200</Frequency> <BandWidth>8</BandWidth> <Offset>167</Offset> </DVBTTuning> <DVBTTuning> <Frequency>506200</Frequency> <BandWidth>8</BandWidth> <Offset>167</Offset> </DVBTTuning> <DVBTTuning> <Frequency>530200</Frequency> <BandWidth>8</BandWidth> <Offset>167</Offset> </DVBTTuning> <DVBTTuning> <Frequency>482200</Frequency> <BandWidth>8</BandWidth> <Offset>167</Offset> </DVBTTuning> </ArrayOfDVBTTuning> [/CODE] Put in "c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\TuningParameters\dvbt\" or equivalent. So how to keep those pesky transponders updated ? Well in the UK freeview actually have their own technical page here ... [url=http://www.ukfree.tv/txdetail.php?a=SD490662]Freeview on Lancaster TV transmitter | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice[/url] That's the page for my area. If you notice each transponder frequency is listed under each transponder group (below where the station logo's are shown for each group). So "521.8MHz" becomes 521800 in the XML file and so on for each group. I wonder if a plugin could be written to update these automatically ? I'm not sure how often they update that page but it looks pretty official. Happy viewing :D [/QUOTE]
