OpenDCT Missing Channels
I am using the most recent version of the OpenDCT docker and when I perform a channel scan in SageTV only pulls in the mapped channels from my HDHomeRun.
My HDHomeRun sees 109 channels, and SageTV only shows 19 which are mapped to the stations. I would like to manually map the majority of the other channels as I have identified them. As an example, I tried adding channel 5004 which is the Weather Channel in HD as a manual entry based on the channel list on the web page for the tuner. SageTV could not tune it because it did not know the mapping. I am using a HDHR3-6CC-3X2 with firmware 20170612beta1 in QAM mode. Any thoughts?

OpenDCT excels with ClearQAM when it has a reference source (another tuner with a CableCARD). Otherwise I wouldn't use it for ClearQAM because you'll be just as well off using SageTV's built in support. It's not well tested in situations where a CableCARD isn't available for reference, but if you give it a channel, it should try to tune it as a vchannel as a last resort. If you can post an opendct.log log of what happened when you did a channel scan and also what happened when you tried to manually get it to tune a mapped channel, that should help get me an idea of what's happening.

SageTV didn't seem to try channels above channel 158.
When trying a manually added channel it complains about the QAM frequency not being known. I don't want to spend the money on CC because I am in an old TWC area and most of the HD is restricted. If easier for you, I will switch to the built in devices. However, if you'd like to solve, I am willing to test. I don't use this for production, so it's not killing me. Thanks

Another issue may be that, as far as I can tell, OpenDCT will only use us-bcast or us-cable channel_maps, while most cable systems are probably on shifted frequencies (us-hrc or us-irc).
Code:
10:24:35.431 [HDHomeRunDiscoveryReceive-30] ERROR DeviceLoaderImpl - Unable to load the capture device 'HDHomeRun HDHR-US Tuner 10173AD8-1', id -302192804 => opendct.tuning.discovery.CaptureDeviceLoadException: The program currently does not know how to use the channel map 'us-hrc'.

Okay, the device is the 6 tuner rack mount which is really the 2 CC units in a case. I'll play with the second device on the native lib and let me know if there is something to test with on the OpenDCT side if you guys decide to work on it.
Thanks for the replies so far.

Edit: I can't even find any option to select anything other than us-bcast or us-cable via their own software; I'm not sure how that became selected.

If you can post http://192.168.43.147:80/lineup.xml, that should help me narrow down why it didn't return everything.

As an example. Channel 7 is NOT the same frequency on each of them. The HDHR will use the following for each channel map selection: us-bcast: 177000000 us-cable: 177000000 us-hrc: 175758700 us-irc: 189000000 So when you are telling the HDHR to tun to 177000000 to get physical channel 7 tuned in, it will not lock onto anything if you are on an HRC cable system. I think I've already gotten it sorted, but it will need to be tested (I only have one clearQAM channel, and it is unnamed and audio only), so it's a pretty limited test. bcjenkins, if you want to give it a try, you can unzip the attached jar file into opendct's lib folder (backing up your original opendct-0.5.28.jar), and then set the hdhr to use us-hrc channelmaps from a windows pc with Code:
hrhomerun_config XXXXXXXX set /tuner0/channelmap us-hrc hrhomerun_config XXXXXXXX set /tuner1/channelmap us-hrc hrhomerun_config XXXXXXXX set /tuner2/channelmap us-hrc I was having trouble getting opendct to set the channelmap to use from an .properties setting, so that's why you have to configure it elsewhere right now (without a setting, opendct will simply use whatever map that particular tuner is already set to).

Thanks. That's really interesting that OpenDCT didn't return that entire list to SageTV. I'll be looking into this.

Incidentally, I do have this set

Changing those other two options will not hurt anything, but I doubt they will change the outcome. Instead of attempting to do a lookup that will fail, they skip it and fail because there are no mappings saved.

Off hand, is there a switch to force the 'new' tuners to use the legacy tuning? (I'm at work and can't dig into the code right now). Just wondering, because Sage itself usually does a pretty good job at QAM scanning (in my previous experience before everything went encrypted).
