At the moment both & and ' are removed from channel titles when scanned in.
Is it possible to keep these in?

Regards

Usually you'd still end up with these in the channel names. What type of device are your channel from?

If you view http://<ipaddress>/lineup.xml in your web browser, using the ipaddress of your HDHomeRun, do you see '&' character in the channel names. (they'd be a longer form that looks like "&amp;")

Either that try that, or scan in NextPVR, without hitting the 'save' button, then post the logs.

Hi yes they do appear correctly in the hdhomerun menu as well as other apps.
They just seem to get replaced with a space in nextpvr for some reason  Huh

I have attached a screenshot and the logs

Thanks

Just to be clear, on the Settings->Devices screen, are you using a device with the type HDHR or DVBT?

Ok, I can see what's happening. I'll try to fix it for the next release.

FYI, it wouldn't have happened with the HDHR device type.

Ok great thanks Smile
I thought I needed the DVBT type to support multiple recordings on a single tuner?

Is there a difference between HDHR and DVBT type?
