Unless my JCMathew DVBT-01 Restarted itself overnight i didnt even have to rescan or anything to get prime, it was just there this morning before work.

Kind of convenient as the Mrs was complaining just last night that we couldnt get prime anymore.

Checked on my sony tv wtih built in freeview. Prime shows up on the guide, and you can select it and watch prime ok. Prime is in position 10. If you press info while watching prime, the name of the channel is "Reserved 5KSD", all of the other channels have their name shown. You can not reach the channel by using program up / down, you loop around to channel 1 without reaching prime. At the moment, the only way to access it is via the epg.
Guide shown is for a week.

bonkiebonks: How do I get Prime on Win 7 Media Center? It's not showing up in scans.

Are you getting any of the other channels on the Kordia MUX such as Maori TV or Parliamanet TV?

Yup I am. I've got ChineseTV, Parliament, Maori, Freeview HD Demo, in addition to the standard ones TV1, 2, 3, C4.

By the way, I should mention that I am receiving these off the Waiatarua site, if that makes any difference.

I just rescanned my Win7 RC machine and it picked up Prime fine. It was labelled as Prime (DVB Viewer had it as the test name still) and looked great. Did you do a full rescan which meant you had to re-do your guide data sources for some of the channels?

As I posted earlier, for Win 7MC, the DVB-T seems fine when you rescan anew, and the DVB-S needs an additional single transponder scan of 12456

It came up on channel 244 for me (built-in Sony TV, Freeview HD). After a re-scan it went to 10.

does anyone have a correct list of the current FTA channels in order? ie;

1. TV1
2. Tv2
3.Tv3
4. C4

I just did a muck up on my reciever and deleted all the TPs, so had to add them again and need to sort the channels out. also picked up a wierd Aussie live feed.
