    thanks for that, 02112 has so far at different times generated the Dunedin FTA channels and the no data for that postcode during GS , any tips? Might try a new image.

    Nope, still showing Dunedin, at what point does one tell the Guided Setup for the Thomson one lives in Auckland? Maybe I should put on three quarter pants, wear my sunglasses on my forehead and sit in a Porsche Cayenne and then try? I will remove the scarf and track pants, TiVo still thinks I am in Dunedin!!

    Heya Daniel, thanks for the affirmation, I am missing brain cells but not that many. So you have a Thomson with the beta image as well and you are trying to get the current Auckland FTA channels running on the TiVo's tuner? I think we are being punished for having 10 FTA channels and not living in Dunedin? Someone will drop us a hint as to where we are going wrong. There must be a manual method of inserting the FULL up to date Auckland channel lineup? Can anyone assist with a hint or two, cant wait to consign the Phillips VCR (STB) to the bin permanently.

    Hmmm, mine is GS'd against 02113, [strike]Will check out what ukchan module is in that image.. It'd just be a case of compiling a custom one..
    Since my linux boxem are down at the mo, Thomson maybe able to help me out (cheers bud dunno what we'd do without ya) :P [/strike]

    Hmmmmmm however it's at the point of GS you are not getting a Auckland lineup, does it show Auckland if you pick "Cable, No cablebox" with postcode 02112?

    If you have any trouble getting the tuner in the UK hardware to tune into these channels then you might like to try using the attached ukchan module as it will setup the frequency table correctly and configure NICAM support. The guide data and headend information would have to be configured from the emulator as that is what would be populating the data.

    Hiya welcome back to the thread, no Auckland does not show up as an option during GS using that combination although "Cable, No cablebox" is not shown as an option I have tried 02112 with "Aerial + Analogue cable" and it says "no cable providers etc... try another post code". Other options at that point are;

    1. Aerial Only (this has been the focus of most my attempts)
    2. Aerial + Digital Cable/Digital Terrestrial
    3. Aerial + Analogue Cable
    4. Digital Satellite + Digital Cable/Digital Terrestrial
    5. Aerial + Digital Satelitte

    I am happy to keep trying options if it will assist others later, even downloading trying a new beta image is no problem as I have no guide data yet on this TiVo and the lounge TiVo continues to purr away, plus the woman in my life is happy of the attention with no TiVo in the bedroom.

    Thanks Thomson, am I correct in thinking the frequency table should have been correctly set during reimaging by selecting NZ frequency and possibly Nicam as well when I selected dual audio?

    Just have checked the channels by using the numbers on the remote and 1 is missing and the other channels are out by two or three depending on how high up they are e.g. Alt Tv is on channel 67 (should be 62) Maori is poorly tuned on 45 (should be 43) TV3 is on 9 (should be 7) so the frequency is not set correctly although Nicam is. I will try and reset with a new image first as I want to get the guided setup running smoothly and then maybe do a Thomsom setup howto for the NZTiVo site using guided setup noting the traps and tricks.
