I switch MP1 to cable reception. I'm trying that with a WinTV Dual. I found an XML file for Vodafone in the forum. the given list does not produce any results. With that I can find at least some of the channels. Does anyone have a working XML for Vodafone for WinTV?

    I notice that there is a tuning-parameters file called Germany.Full.xml that is much larger than any of the files for specific regions/providers in Germany. Does that file work, or are there problems with it?

    Using the "Full" file will obviously take longer to complete a scan, but it should find everything. If you sit in front of your TV while the scan is occurring, you could note down those frequencies which work, and those that don't, and then create a customised file for your location by editing a copy of the "Full" file and deleting all of the entries for the frequencies that do not work.

    Thank you very much for the tip.
    The Germany-Full doesn't have all the channels either. But I've now found out that I can read the frequencies using DVB-Viewer, which also receives all the channels I can receive. I'll use that to create my own channel file. Let's see if that works.
