How do I fix this? you need to run mythfilldatabase to load the zap2it data and then apply the info to the scanned channels. I usually do it backwards, load the zap2it data and then use that to apply the mplex and programid information, either way should work, just make sure to copy the two channel name fields and the xmltv id field. > Also, am on analog subsription, when I just watch my comcast on my regular > television, I see channels I like but I don't see it in MythtV.

For those its suggested to get a PVR-150 and use its MPEG2 encoder. -- Steve ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

I did azap some channels and did see FE_HAS_LOCK. I followed every step mentioned on the thread/link that was given to me previously. However, when I run mythfilldatabase, it doesn't populate it. So, I upgraded to latest/greatest trunk version this morning and am very impressed to what everyone has contributed to this version. I can watch feed from my Comcast cable. I really like the scanning facility in this mythtv-setup version. However, some channels are capture as C103#1, C103#2, C103#3 and so on. I can still watch them though in "Watch TV". Program Guide however does not show any program schedules since zap2it will not have any match. How do I fix this? Also, am on analog subsription, when I just watch my comcast on my regular television, I see channels I like but I don't see it in MythtV. Channels like A&E, HGTV, Spike and so on. Why is this so? Is it something to do with the way I scanned the channels, QAM-256? I remember seeing different choices like QAM-128 and QAM64. But have no idea if it will be able to scan other QAM channels when I change the selection. Any comments will be greatly appreciated! KUDOS to all the mythtv developers!!! I love the closed caption feature. :D Picture in Picture looks weird though since it's a very wide rectangle, half screen at top. But it works. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Well, Neil, I recommend you upgrade to a subversion build. The channel scanning is very, very easy, and as far as I can tell DVB stuff is much improved. Just my two cents. IIRC, 0.18.1 has no channel scan facility. Will ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
