Last few problems to fix

Well here is my story so far the media center is build all music is ripped and album art added also all divx movies are in and listed using my movies, also dvd playback is working and all is fine. I have the tv working now using Sky Digital using svideo out on the box and the pic quality is quite good and i am happy.

Problems i have are listed below:

Using the media center guide i can not get BBC1 and BBC2 to show up no matter what i do.

A lot of the channels do not have any programme info listed beside them in the epg.

If people could sort out these issues for me the project would be complete and very wife friendly ha ha

By the way i use Sky digital Ireland

Settings>TV>Guide>Edit Channels

If BBC1 & 2 are listed in there ensure the box next to the name has a check mark in it.

Settings>TV>Guide>Add Listing to Channel

For each channel that doesn't have any listings, select it, you'll see it says "Show no listings for this channel". Select the correct channel from the list.

Some channels might not have any guide data, nothing you can do about this. (maybe choose a different region in the main setup but that'll cause other problems)

Not for Sky, no. You can manually edit for Freeview but not Sky.

Does MCE think you shouldn't be able to get BBC 1 because you are in Ireland?
