channel organisation

**vmancini** · 14-01-2007, 12:09 PM

Hi all,

Just still tinkering with the TiVo, I don't know if its common but in my FTA and Austar channel configuration, when I look at the menu to choose which channels are displayed, it lists from channel 0 to channel 999 and all the associated ones for the appropriate stations, but when I look at them through the program guide, the list starts at channel 182 then goes all the way through to channel 999 then starts from 0 then goes to channel 126. I'm missing a segment from 126 to 182 and the channel ordering is quite annoying. I only have a couple of the non-available FTA channels switched off.

I've tried restarting the box with no changes.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I have selected add all channels yet these channels are no where to be found and it gets a little frustrating trying to watch austar with the channels divided by FTA. Also noting that when I hit the program guide button, the program guide is on 0 NoNag, in the middle of the list.

1. Go into TWP click on more...>MFS>Setup

2. Then click on the number next to Source =

3. Then click one of the numbers next to Headend =

4. If TmsHeadendId = NS2016 good, if not then go back to the previous page and select the other number next to Headend =

5. When TmsHeadendId shows NS2016, what do 'ServerVersion =' and 'Version =' show.

Peter.

There are 2 sources listed: 2274/12 2274/13

3. Then click one of the numbers next to Headend =

Under 2274/12, there is only 1 headend code: 2434/-1
Its TmsHeadendId = NS02016

Under 2274/13 There is only 1 headend code: 2908/-1
Its TmsHeadendId = NS02680

4. If TmsHeadendId = NS2016 good, if not then go back to the previous page and select the other number next to Headend =

5. When TmsHeadendId shows NS2016, what do 'ServerVersion =' and 'Version =' show.

if NS02016 is the correct one, ServerVersion is 30 and Version is 1

**petestrash** · 24-01-2007, 10:25 PM

Yeh, my fault I dropped the leading zero.

Ok ServerVersion = 30 is correct for the most recent lineup.

I can only assume something went wrong during GS. I don't know of an easy way to fix other than redoing GS again.

Peter.

PS are the missing channels shown in the add/remove channels section ?

**vmancini** · 25-01-2007, 12:18 AM

Yes, they're in the add/remove channels section and they are ticked... With the Guided Setup, I ran it but it has all my defaults in the system already, is there a way to reset the software without reimaging?

Vito

**petestrash** · 25-01-2007, 01:44 AM

Use TiVoWeb to enable "PAL Guided Setup" mode. Then reboot

Peter

**vmancini** · 25-01-2007, 01:20 PM

Hi Peter,

I've selected set PAL guided setup mode and logged in via telnet and reboot. The screen says maintenance mode but when it starts up it brings the usual TiVo central start screen.

I've also done the same thing by selecting restart through the tivo screen menu and also tried turning power off at the main and still no GS mode.

At all times, I've been back to the sysAdmin options and made sure set PAL guided setup mode was selected.

Is there any other way to get into GS mode?

Vito
