I use to use My Channel Logos to incorporate my custom logos in the guide. Being that the the program is no longer supported, I've been trying to get EPG123 to include my custom station logos. I moved all my station logos to the EPG123/logo folder. All logos appropriately match the station call...

I think I have a switch for hdhr2mxf to not include logos so it would stop overriding logos from mc2xl. I'll check later.

Greetings everyone, I'm in RI at 02896. Recently channel 27 out of Marlboro MA started broadcasting ATSC3 channels:
102.1, 104.1, 105.1, 115.1, 125.1, 150.1, and 166.1
I'm using a recent HDHomeRun Flex 4k tuner which is capable of tuning ATSC3 channels. In the HDHomeRun Config GUI app, I do...

Having said that, and especially considering what Gary has done with EPG123, I have a probably unrealistic hope that someone much more knowledgeable than me will rework the codecs used in WMC to make them workable for new formats not in existence when WMC was orphaned.

CBNC in europe yesterday changed the frequency:
from
12.070 H, SR 27500, FEC 9/10, DVB-S2 – 8PSK
to
12.383 H, SR 27500, FEC 3/4, DVB-S2 – 8PSK

In WMC I made a fast channel search in 12.383 and added the new channel.
what has to be done in epg123? reset database?
Or do I only have to wait ;=)...

So I set up a new Windows 7 PVR last month - it was working fine with no issues, until Saturday when some recordings and some live TV started to stutter (audio normal, but the video sometimes drops from the normal FPS to like 5 FPS). Sometimes it is fixed by a restart of the computer, other times...

It may be a reception issue, is this OTA? if so you may need an LTE filter on your antenna.

If this is for me, I have a great OTA signal. Both WMC, and the Silicon Dust apps show a full strength green signal.

The client systems use the same tuners, and do not have the problem.

Thanks

Since...

I would agree with you but was definitely caused by the above mentioned rollup. Not a fan of coincidence. mcupdate.exe didn't help. Think it was better like it started recording shows again with the tuners but the guide updates kept failing still. I ended up having to use the EPG app to reset...

Hey guys, I have just returned to using a cable card with a tuning adapter after not using it for a year. It worked well for years. Now with a new card and tuning adapter and my W8.1 box, I managed to get some channels but am missing what I think are the SDV Channels like the new MGM PLUS (formerly...

I haven't used a tuning adapter in many, many years, so I'll just pass on some info that I remember...

How do you have the tuning adapter connected? Most people advise to not connect the tuning adapter in serial with the Prime and instead use a 2-way splitter and connect each one directly to the...

I just released version 8.9.1 of the WMC installer for Win8.1/10/11. This version is based on both 8.8.5 and v13 by @technodevotee to perhaps give a better experience along with a couple fixes needed that I didn't know about until earlier this month.

Hi Gary,

I'm using V1.7.3.0 of EPG123.

Should I remove PlayReady PC runtime amd64 from Apps & features? I only use OTA recordings.

Learned something new...didn't even know they had Radio Tuners.

Thank you for the great software and answering all these questions.

Thanks
John

I'm able to P2V my working protected content/CableCard physical desktop into an ESXi virtual machine.
But of course, the process upsets PlayReady which now wants to do an update .
And the PlayReady servers aren't listening any longer. So, it's not possible to update PlayReady.

Does anyone know of...

Geez, this sucks.

I created my original backup on a VGA-only tiny little PC.
So, now I have no way to restore that backup onto a larger PC that will be compatible with an HDMI output.

It's an Optiplex 780 Ultra Small Form Factor.
And I plugged the HDD into an Optiplex 780 Small Form Factor.

Have had EPG123 up and running for several years now, with no issues (after my initial dimness of how to set it up). About 6 months ago, started seeing liveTV issues on the DVB-S2 card, where sometimes the signal would be there, and sometimes not. Last week, I had enough of the randomness (I would...

You can't add tuners to your setup, all tuners have to be setup at the same time. Every time you perform TV Setup, whatever you had before is deleted and you start over.

I've been using WMC for about a decade now with a 4 tuner Ceton. I used SageTV before that. I've got about 20 pages of various errors I've run into and documented. I recently ran into a new issue which blew away my tuners and Windows 7 was unable to find them. With all the headaches I've...

First off, slow down. You are trying to open the client while the client is already running importing the mxf file. And also opening the configuration GUI while the client is still importing the file. So to get a clean readable log file, make sure the client is not running, open the configuration...
