Hi all,

I've just imaged up a some new HDDs (2 x nice new 500Gb AV-quality units) for my Philips Tivo, and I've struck a snag.
Source 1 is an internal tuner, source 2 is Foxtel Cable, served up by a Pace cable box.
The Tivo seems to be functioning correctly in most respects (time-shift; web access; retrieves guide data) buuuuuuuut . . . . . .

. . . . . The Tivo has the Foxtel channels listed as 1 to 69, instead of 101 to 800-and-something.
So it thinks that 19 is Discovery, 20 is UKTV, 25 is Comedy, etc.

So, anyone have any ideas as to why this is the case?
And how the channels can be correctly mapped?

Also, although the Tivo is retrieving guide info, it doesn't seem to be getting info on ABC2.

Sounds like you didn't select the right headends when you setup.

It looks like you chose foxtel analog and FTA analog, not the digital versions.

You wuz right! Both problems fixed!
I think the response I'm looking for, is . . . . D'oh!
Once I enter all the season passes, I look forward to household peace and harmony . . . .

Thanks Peter.

No worries, simple mistake.
