WinTV-HVR-2255 No ClearQAM channels detected

[sub]

Is there any chance you could capture a 20 second full TS from one of those frequencies, so I could try it here?

I'm having the same issue - here's my log file. How do I capture a 20 second full TS from one of those frequencies? I'll get it to you asap.

I'd forgotten about this... I don't actually have any useful clearQAM channels, so not being able to scan them hasn't been an issue for me.

Use http://www.tscapture.com/. The free version lets you capture up to 1 minute.

Doing it as I type. Interestingly, when I scanned for channels with "Default Cable Frequencies" in this program (as opposed to NextPVR, even though they seem to be the same) it found all the channels, no issues. Hopefully that helps somehow. I'll post the capture when I have it off the server.

TSCapture uses the same core code as NextPVR, but it isn't updated as often. So whatever's been broken in NextPVR 3.7.7 hasn't made it down to sub's other programs.

Be aware that sub is AFK (or AFNZ if you prefer) for a few days, so be patient.

No worries. Is there a way I can use a config file from TSCapture to have the channels show in NextPVR?

[johnsonx42]

I don't know, probably not.

Assuming you have no current configuration you want to preserve, you could uninstall NextPVR 3.7.7, delete your NPVR data directory, then install 3.6.6, do the scan, then install 3.7.7.

http://www.nextpvr.com/NPVRSetup_3_6_6.exe

(or if you want to go the more crafty way that would preserve existing configuration, you could download 3.6.6, extract the installer with 7-zip, find the NPVRTSMon.ax, copy it in to the NPVR program directory (saving the newer one first of course), then do the scan. this will probably work, but the 3.6.6 NPVRTSMon could be incompatible with 3.7.7... usually it's close enough for a scan though.)

Please give this patch a go, to see if it corrects the issue.

Thanks Sub this worked for me.
