It's rescan time around here over the next few weeks, as channels change frequencies. I guess I'll have to set some things up again. Does anyone have a few quick bullets of the tasks in order?
I'm getting too old for this...
Has anyone made a quick cheat sheet for rescanning?

I am also interested in a quick tips for the rescan process. How we scan for the new frequencies and how does this affect EPG123?
Thanks

My personal preference is to clear out all the current scanned channels and scan again. It is cleaner in my opinion.
In WMC, goto Settings->TV->TV Signal->Scan for More Channels. Click the [Delete All] button, and then the [Scan again] button. When it is done, just go to the EPG123 Client, select your OTA lineup, and click the Match by: [# Number] button. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
EDIT: Sorry, you asked for bullets ...
