Manually select frequency on satellite feed
« on: February 16, 2014, 01:46:49 am »

The BBC have launched 5 new HD channels all at different frequencies and for some reason MC19 can't find all of them.
How would i manually select a frequency to search for? 

for example BBC 4 HD frequency is shown below. I know the satellite but a auto scan does not find it.

Frequency 11023 H

Thanks

Must be a new frequency for Astra. Maybe it isn't in the lookup XML file for 28.2E?

I'm not at my PC today to check.

Somewhere in the jriver directory is a list of satellites and their frequencies. You could try adding it there.

Of course I could be talking horsepoo.

The file is in MC installation folder:

C:\Program Files (x86)\J River\Media Center 19\TV\DVBS\28.2°E Eurobird 1   Astra 1N,2A,2B,2D.xml

Let us know whether adding an entry in the file solves the problem.

Yes it fixed the problem

Could this be added automatically in the next build?

another thing Yaobing

Would it be possible to add a manual frequency search?  WMC does a similar thing that allows you to search for other frequencys?

Thanks
