Hi,

I am using a DVB-T USB card and MediaPortal software to watch TV. I have tried manually adding these channals with the PID's provided but I get no signal detected.

Do these channels only broadcast on Freeview at certain times of the day or am I missing a step? Would like to see the Scottish footy starting on Setanta this weekend.

Cheers

Thanks for the post Marbles.

Is Setanta broadcast all day? It's just so I can check things are setup Ok before I give up on MediaPortal and try different software.

You don't need to use a keygen to get the PIDs to work do you?

No m8...once the PIDs are in youre set up.
Only need keygen or set-top boxes that cant be manually tuned.
You usually get till a short while after the game starts to input viewer IDs...but when using PIDs you have until the end of transmission.

Do you need to enter all 3 PIDs or is it just the Audio and Video PID's that matter?

Thanks again.

I think that depends on the media you use m8.
STB's just need the 2...however, PC progs may require PCR PIDs etc also.

Thanks again Marbles

I think I've made a bit of progress.

Red Hot works for the first 3 seconds every time I switch to it then goes blank. Still no joy on Setanta which is what I really want to see. I'm a big footy fan and am looking forward to the new season.

Any suggestions?

Hopefully have good news by 10.30.

Have now manged to get Redhot working with the PIDs. Mediaportal requires a PMT PID this should be the same as the PCR PID.
Still no joy with Setanta!

Can anyone else get Sentanta working with these PIDs?

Thanks very much to all.

Indeed... although the channel opens a couple of hours b4 match the pics start ½ hr b4 kickoff. Glad you sorted m8...I tried mediaportal but it keeps freezing after a couple of secs!

Marbles try setting the PMT PID to be the same as the Audio/Video PCR PID.
This worked for me.
Cheers m8

Thanks for that, but I had done and after a few secs freeze pic...must be the a/v codecs I'm using...will have a proper look tomorrow during the game.

Yup...did that too m8.
Most channels are ok...it's the 'others' that hang after I enter their PIDs and view.


Unless you know what box you are using it's impossible know if its a manual tuner or not...unless you fiddle with the remote and go thru all menues to see if 'manual setup/tune' is there.
If you look on back of TV there must be a product code/name/serial etc.
Google the product code and look for instruction pdf's etc. If they can be manually tuned then youre most likely to find the info in the instruction manual.

i'm using media portal as well and i go into setup and change the settings but it doesnt seem to save them.

When i go back in to check, they have reverted back to the defaults.

Anyone got any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks.

It seems to be working now so i guess i just need to wait for the footy to start to see if it works!!

Try adding new channel. Copy all settings from the original channel and add new PIDs...save channel list and now all shld be fine.
