Is there any way I can add a raw frequency of an analog channel?

This is because the default channel set of my country set in NextPVR cannot detect a channel at VHF 76.25MHz, and I'm not able to access it via the channel numbers only.

From memory, you can enter the channel number as 76250000. I haven't tried it in years though.

Cannot... the channel number only takes up to 9999 as the number.

Sorry, you might be out of luck then. (unless you want to edit the tuning string in the database)

An entry for an analog channel is like this:

Code:

<tuning>
  <type>Analog</type>
  <locator>
    <channel>3</channel>
    <country>65</country>
    <input>antenna</input>
    <source>Tuner</source>
  </locator>
</tuning>

I did not see anywhere I could change the frequency. :o

This is different from a digital channel where it's like this:

Code:

<tuning>
  <type>DVB-T</type>
  <locator>
    <frequency>642000</frequency>
    <bandwidth>8</bandwidth>
  </locator>
  <service_id>5</service_id>
  <tsid>1</tsid>
  <onid>1</onid>
  <service_type>1</service_type>
</tuning>

Anyway, it's ok with leaving it as it is if it's too troublesome, u dun have to rack too much about it, since analog channels are gradually phasing out.

In your analog channel, just change the channel number to the frequency. Big numbers are assumed to be frequencies.

Code:

<tuning>
  <type>Analog</type>
  <locator>
    <channel>76250000</channel>
    <country>65</country>
    <input>antenna</input>
    <source>Tuner</source>
  </locator>
</tuning>

Thanks.

Btw shouldn't it be 76250 only?
Since 642000 actually is 642Mhz. So 76.25Mhz should be 76250?

It's been years since I've tried it, but I'm pretty sure its 76250000. ie Hz.

DVB-T frequency is done KHz.

Feel free to try both though.

Thanks for the information. It is indeed 76250000, and I have successfully tuned into the desired channel.

Great.
