So, I have checked on my VDR 170 your issue. I can confirm that on encrypted dvb/s dvb/s2 channels I receive the message "Channal not available" But you can fix it easy :) Go to Menu - Setup - Update channels - NO after that go to the channels edit (red button) - change CA field from encrypted to Free to Air Igor _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
