Need some help with NextPVR, Windows 7 and a PCTV HD Card. Ran FilterCheck, added the card to AnalogDevices.xml. No channels found.
Do a channel scan, then post the npvr.log and I'll take a look.

You have not installed the MainConcept (HCW) MPEG Multiplexer-Plus. See wiki pages or the sticky thread in this forum about how-to.
Zip and attach the complete npvr.log and I'll take a look.

That snippet shows you're trying to scan ATSC digital channels over an antenna. Is that correct?
Will try this soon. Thanks!
Over my Cable TV.
You can't get ATSC over cable TV it needs an external antennae.

Ok. What is it called when I have cable TV input to PCTV card?
ATSC over Cable.
