I think I've reached the limit of my knowledge with this. I can only receive the four terrestrial channels where I am but Channel 4 has for some reason always been tricky. Now it's semi-disappeared.
In Config, the four channels are set up in the Capture sources for the two tuners in my PVR500MCE. I'm using XMLTV to download the programme info and it's set up for those four channels (BBC1 South/22, ITV/25, BBC2/28 and C4/32). I know the frequencies are correct because they worked for some time before a little tweaking caused C4 to become problematic.
In the Channels tab in Config, they're set up as channel numbers 1-4 in this order: BBC1, BBC2, ITV and C4.
After hours of experimentation, I have now persuaded the system to record C4, however, which has caused much joy to all in the household
. But the problem is that I can't access C4 manually when watching Live TV through GBPVR, either using the ChUp or ChDn on the remote, or by hitting the 4 button. C4 just gets left out. I can however watch it via the TV Guide, so it does seem to be tuned in correctly.
I have ploughed through the wiki but I'm trying to get this fully working again without destroying my list of Reoccurring programming...
Inceidentally, hitting the 'Remove unreferenced channels' lin Config/Channels leaves numerous the detritus of my failed attempts to get C4 accepted in the list (ie, unlinked references to C4) - so is there a way of manually accessing that list and deleting the unwanted ones?
Any thoughts gratefully received.
