Look at it this way - the cost of fuel here at the moment makes it a good reason to stay at home and watch TV. Just offset the cost of an upgrade against saving money by not driving anywhere.

Anyone know what the cheapest S2 card that works with npvr is? Perhaps I'm being greedy as I already have one, but could do with a second!

I deleted the existing BBCHD and BBC1 HD channels mapped to my Hauppauge S2 card rescanned using the Freesat and Astra profiles but the channels were not found. Can somebody please post a note of the settings for the UK.
Thanks for your help.

Inserting 11=10847,V,23000,89,69 into the Freesat ini file worked.

Is it possible to insert a range into each line of this file (0:99) to capture all the stations being transmitted from the satellite ???

I cheat and put the TP I want to scan at number 1 in the file and cancel the scan the moment it's found the channels I'm interested in

Not sure what you're getting at above - the scan will find all the channels transmitted from each TP you have listed in the ini file. The freesat ini file was missing some that has FTA stations (but not technically freesat stations) so you might be missing some. However many of the TPs are full of encrypted channels so not worth scanning.

Here's what I have in my freesat ini file:

[SATTYPE]
1=0280
2=FREESAT ONLY (28.2E)

[DVB]
0=24
1=10847,V,23000,89,69
2=12606,V,27500,3/4,69
3=12441,V,27500,2/3
4=10714,H,22000,0
5=10729,V,22000,0
6=10758,V,22000,0
7=10773,H,22000,0
8=10788,V,22000,0
9=10803,H,22000,0
10=10818,V,22000,0
11=10832,H,22000,0
12=10891,H,22000,0
13=10906,V,22000,0
14=11426,V,27500,0
15=11954,H,27500,0
16=12207,V,27500,0
17=11223,V,27500,0
18=11261,H,27500,0
19=11343,V,27500,0
20=11642,V,27500,0
21=11680,V,27500,0
22=12524,V,27500,0
23=12560,V,27500,0
24=12051,V,27500,0

If you change the 0=24 to 0=1 at the same time, it'll quit after one TP anyway.
