Added a second HD HomeRun

[heffneil]

So I noticed with the new fall schedule we were running out of tuners! So I purchased another HDHomeRun and installed it. Everything seemed to go really well until I chose the guide information. What is interesting is that the original HDHomeRun's guide name wasn't the same. That particular guide name isn't available anymore?! So I chose the best one and that was ok. I had remapped the original channels on the original HDHomeRun. I didn't change anything on the new HDHomeRun but the channels don't show up in my guide?! I have rebooted the server but something is awry. Any ideas?

Thanks so much, Neil

I don't know but I think the problem is the name of the channel is the same as the original tuner. Not really sure...

Yes, actually it is the channel id that is the same. If sage sees 2 channels with the same id, it will just call them by one name (since they're really the same channel). You can confirm the ID is the same by going into the channel remapping section of the channel editor (just don't change anything!). Try recording 4 things at once one different channels to make sure its working.

Make sure you followed the instructions when you installe the second HDHR and scanned for channels for both tuners in the SiliconDust app if you are connected to cable. Ignore doing that if OTA and just scan it from with Sage.
