Sounds like hardware or driver issue. What device do you have? Do you have updated drivers?

Edit
I have Hauppauge WinTV PRV 350.

Updated my drivers recently and I have the last drivers according to Hauppage.

Can watch 15 different channels through the program I got with the card, WinTV2000.

I don't know if I shall go on reporting this. I took the writing above from thread 12.0.86

You expected to see channels 27, 28, 29 etc. for TV 3, SVT 24, TV 6, but MC12 did not find these channels during scanning. Right? And MC12 found channels 13 - 20 and all of them show Comhem.

One thing that comes to my mind:

Are you using cable or antenna? Have you made a selection between Cable and Antenna before actually scanning for channels?

While you are at it, try manually add the channels that you expect to have, and see if MC will show them.

My God. Cable, that's the solution. Thank you. Now I have my channels. :D :D

Regards to all of you and especially to you Yaobing.

Cool, good to hear!

When I saw your description I strongly felt it must be the cable/antenna mix up. Typically frequencies for channels 2 - 12 are similar for cable and antenna, but for channels 13 and above they are different. So you would get lower cable channels when you set it to scan antenna channels.

I will never forget the word CABLE ;D

Now I'll go to bed.

Once again thanks for Your support. MC is just the ONE.
