Satellite Channels not visible with Hauppauge Nova S+

#1

Hi,
I have an Hauppauge Nova S+ and Windows 7 64Bit Ultimate.

I have a problem: most of the configured channels are not visible in my WMC.

During configuration I have selected the Satellite (HotBird 13E , here Italy), the Universal LNB and Start a scan for All Transponders.

The result is that over 70% of channels found are not visible.

I have not understood how mediacenter search for channels: does it have a database of channels or does it perform a real scan ? In the first scenario. Does it exists a list of working channels downloadable somewhere ?

Regards

I have already found this product after an extensive search inside the board but it is not what I want.

I whish to understand what is happening here and maybe wrote some code to solve id.

The main questions I have are:

1) When adding a Satellite TV Source where WMC takes the satellite config ?

2) What happen when manual scanning for transponders ?

3) Is there a whay to let WMC read a new and corrected satellite config file ?
