Well you can just scan existing transponders its quite straight forward<br><br>I usually then switch to mythweb to update the xmltv,channel numbers, names settings etc as its a nice table there..<br><br>For sky I add 100 to the channel number ie sky sport is 130, I also only add the channels Ill record off... <br>
<br>There are regional channels on DVB-T and stratos at least is on DVB-S check this link<br><a href="http://www.freeviewnz.tv/tv_channels_and_listings/channels">http://www.freeviewnz.tv/tv_channels_and_listings/channels</a><br>
<br>You can also get SBS from Australia on DVB-S but there is issues with polarity (its vertical and all nz are horizontal)<br><br>Cheers<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 7 September 2011 10:32, Robin Gilks <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:g8ecj@gilks.org">g8ecj@gilks.org</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Greetings all<br>
<br>
The last time I did a full scan of DVB-S was in 0.21 and for DVB-T was in<br>
0.22 which means, as you can imagine, that I'm missing quite a few<br>
channels.<br>
<br>
I'm quite willing to invest an evening or 2 doing it all again from<br>
scratch but would like to know if there are any shortcuts or gotchas in<br>
0.24.1.<br>
<br>
For example<br>
* I use the Freeview XMLTV grabber but will that pair the channel to ID<br>
for me or is it still a manual process<br>
* is there a recommended channel numbering (I'll want to avoid clashes<br>
with Sky channel numbers or maybe use the Sky rather than Freeview<br>
numbering)<br>
* The regional channels - do they still exist (Southland, CTV, Stratos<br>
etc) in the DVB world?<br>
* what is the status of radio - both DVB-T and DVB-S. Does it work now?<br>
(it was pretty useless the last time I tried).<br>
<br>
All input gratefully received :)<br>
