Can´t find some HD Channels

#1

Post by Herbert77MB » Thu Sep 07, 2017 7:04 pm

Hello,

my Name is Marco from Germany (sorry for my bad Englisch). I have a problem with some HD Channels.

Last week my Cable Prodcaster (Unitymedia) change the freuquency of the channels. After seaching for the new channel freuquency, the Windows Medeia Center can´t find some HD channels (only few channels like Das Erste or ZDF). With my TV Receiver i can receive the HD Channels like ArteHD, 3SAT HD...

What can I do?

Thanks for any help.

Greets

Marco

You might need to re-scan for more channels. Some even have to manually add channels

Try searching manually add channelsup in the search box top right this page

Here is one post to get you started.

Hi. Thank you for your answer. I deleted and rescaned the channels, but it doesn't work.
I think, i have to add the channels manually, but i don't have the option in the WMC menu.
I have DVB-C, but in Germany WMC doesn't work with DVB-C. My TV card simulated DVB-T for WMC tuner.

If you have a tip, how i can add the HD Channels manually, i will be very thankful.

Lets try and find the problem, rather that treating the symptom.

First of all WMC should see the tuner as it is....DVB-C.

if it doesn't we might need to attack from a different angle.

What model of tuner do you have?

Do you use CAM or SmartCard?

Have you tried the Digital Cable Advisor (DCA) yet? You can find the DCA on the WMC start page.....up in Extra's
