Hey Doggod,

so hows Ireland doing this week? I work in Dublin but I cleared off to the East coast of US to work for a while - got tired waiting for the Luas .

Have you been able to get the channels tuned in using wintv (assuming you are using a hauppage card) or whatever software came with the card?

I think there is a .exe listed in this forum somewhere which can copy these frequencies once they have been setup. Otherwise I'm not sure what you will need to do.

You can try looking over this link

Hey,

I'm using GBPVR with NTL Dublin. I entered all the channels in manually because I didn't have any joy autotuning. You should check out the autotuning thing that comes with your PVR card. Then use freqcopy to copy the channels so PVR can't use them.

Manually inputting the frequencies should work though, the only one that didn't work for me in Dublin was E4, which is a weird one. Going to try search for it with the WinTV software, and see how I get on.

If you've any more questions gimme a bell, and I can see what I can do. Had a good bit of trouble setting it up when I started.
