Help setting up HDHomeRun with Argus TV

[andymiller6891]

Hi there, I am sort of new to Argus TV, I have successfully managed to get it working with a usb tv tuner so I know the coax cable is fine but when I try to scan with my hdhomerun I don't pick up any or very little in the way of channels.

I have a DVB-T2 hdhomerun and the homerun itself can tune over 130 channels, but when I scan with argus I don't get any of the ones I expect to see.

I have tried setting the homerun to 'For The Record' but still have no luck.

I wondered if anyone had any tips on getting this set up as I'm keen to keep Argus as my backend.

Thanks.

Hi Andy
First, we should check, if all DVB-T channels really are scanned.
Which setting did you select in the pulldown menu in the scan section as a scanning preselection? And where are you situated?

I can view all the channels on the hdhomerun view app. And I've tried the dropdown box on default and for the record.

That's not really an answer.
1. Do you use Argus Recorder or MediaPortal?
2. If Argus:
2.1 Entering "Scan" on the Recorder Console",
2.2 you have to select a card (your USB device) and
2.3 select a scanning profile. And that is depending on your location (there is no "default")
3. Where are you situated? (Country)

1. I'm trying to use the Argus Recorder.
2. I'm in the uk, and I select the 1st tuner from the HD home run and then select Europe dvb-t.
