NBC switched which Boston network broadcasts its programming from WHDH (7.1) to WBTS (8.1 and 60.5) and WYCN (15.1), none of which were included in my original channel scan. So, Using WinTV v8 I re-scanned my Hauppauge WinTV-dualHD ATSC Tuner and it found these new channels; in this software the device is labelled "WinTV-dual HD". I tried to update / import these channels into NPVR but have been unsuccessful; in setup / devices / device setup: the "scan" button just repeated the prior list of channels but did not include 8.1, 15.1 or 60.5. "Import channels" goes to a default filename of "channels-ATSC" and offers 3 irrelevant folders; there is no file in the WinTV folder named "channels-ATSC" to select. In setup / channels" I tried "update EPG" but it only returns the previously existing channels and does not find 8.1, 15.1 or 60.5. I was unable to find a solution in the "read me first" link in the forum, so I am writing for your help. What am I missing???
thanks,

Do a scan, then zip and attach the logs and we'll take a look.

That's not how it works. 'Import Channels' is for importing channels previous exported from NextPVR.

Sub,
Thank you for your rapid response. As mentioned in my original post, I ran SCAN previously without a positive result, i.e., it didn't pick up the 3 NBC affiliated stations. Following your rec, I ran it again AND the stations came up this time. So I'm all set, although a bit embarrassed about wasting your time.
Thanks again,
Bob
