I am attempting to try something new on my OE setup. Using the WebGUI tvheadend see's my dvb-t tuner but I am unsure of what to do from here to add channels. Has anyone done this before and can offer some guidance? Thanks!

You'll need to add a mux (or use a preset) and it should start populating.

Note I only have experience with TVH and DVB-C

Under Configuration -> DVB Inputs should be the option to "Add DVB Network by Location", select your location from here.

Thanks guys, I've been out of town all week but I will give it another try over the weekend. I think I have done what you have suggested but am still hitting a wall. I select the auckland NZ region but I don't get much further past that point. I have tried looking online for answers but can't find any how-to guides with the latest 3.9 UI

When you go to configuration -> devices (where the tuner cards are listed).
Have you enabled your "network" on the selected tuner card?

Okay guys, this is where I'm at.

I've Selected 'Networks' and selected the settings as shown in this picture, creating a DVB-T network named 'Auckland' (using pre-defined auckland-waiatarua)
Click to see full size

Then selected 'TV Adapters' and selected the 'Auckland' network profile for my tuner
Click to see full size

I then click on the 'Muxes' tab and it shows the three frequencies as 'PEND', and a few minutes later shows 'FAIL'. Where am I going wrong?

Your screenshots are too small to be legible
Can you also provide a screenshot of the Configuration -> DVB Inputs screen when you've got your adapter selected?

Do you see any EPG scanning activity in the Status tab?

That's really weird, I was able to click on the thumbnail pictures before to get a larger picture but editing my post must have removed that function. I'll re-post this afternoon with your requested screenshot

When I setup TVHeadend I found the mux frequencies for my location were out of date. By selecting Generic/auto_Default I was able to scan successfully.
