How to make SageTV 'disable'/'not use' individual channels on a tuner ?
Heres the problem. I've finally got two DVB-C tuners (FloppyDTV C/CI) in my SageTV server. My cable provider crypts channels through a Conax system. So I need to use CAM + SmartCard. I've finally managed to get hold of a second SmartCard so now I can record one show and watch another. I am now trying out a few 1080i/HD/H.264 channels. But because of how strict my provider is (shakes fist at CanalDigital), only one of my SmartCards receives the decrypt keys for these HD channels. I can live with that. But because of how you enable/disable channels in SageTV it seems that I cannot tell SageTV that these few HD channels are only available through one of the tuners. Because of that it looks like its random which tuner is used. Have anybody some trick to 'remove' these HD channels from one of the tuners ? When scanning for channels it will always find it because its only the video/audio streams themself that are encrypted.
Any help appreciated |

Use different lineups for the 2 tuners, then disable the channels on one of the lineups, but leave them enabled on the other

Brings a smile to my face each time I see that sheep looking out
Ok. A little add-on info. I've just gone from MyTheatre plug-in, to using the built in DVB/BDA tuner functionality in SageTV. I know I could probably figure this out by reading documentation. But could you give me a few pointers to shorten the research. As of now I choose the BDA tuner and make it use 'CanalDigital' entry in FRQ file. Do I make a 'duplicate' FRQ entry or something for other tuner ? I guess the simple question is: How do I make separate lineups ? |

Never mind. Got home, found out, problem solved (I think)
Used 'multi' XMLTVImportPlugin with identical 1.xml & 2.xml. Seems to work after a quick logic test on a few channels. Thx for help |
