Determining My Cable/Satellite Lineup
During Guided Setup, your Nero LiquidTV™ will ask you a series of questions to determine which set of channels (lineup) you receive from your cable or satellite provider. These questions help to narrow down which lineup you receive if more than one is available. Note that you may be asked about channels that you don't normally watch to determine your lineup.
You may be able to find a listing of your cable/satellite channels in one of the following sources:
- On a lineup card sent by your cable or satellite provider (sometimes found in the monthly bill).
- In a local newspaper or TV guide.
- On the website of your cable or satellite provider (comcast.com, cox.com, etc).
- On the onscreen channel guide provided by your cable or satellite service.
- On another television in your household.
Once you locate a copy of your channel lineup, go back through the steps and answer each question to help your Nero LiquidTV™ determine the correct lineup.
NOTE: The recording functions of your Nero LiquidTVTM will not work correctly until you select your correct program provider.
To complete Guided Setup you will need to select a temporary lineup. On the Provider Not Listed screen, select “Skip For Now, I’ll Troubleshoot Later”.
Next, choose “Yes, continue” on the Are You Sure? screen. Select one of the listed cable providers to use temporarily.
Configuring Cable Channel Lineups
If you have selected a cable provider which offers several different cable channel lineups then the Cable Channel Lineup screen is displayed.
Proceed as follows to select the lineup which is valid for you:
Use the Select button to begin the selection process.
→ The What’s On Channel <X>? screen is displayed and lists possible programs.
Select the program that you receive on the requested channel.
If Nero LiquidTV™ requires further information about the allocation of programs and channels:
→ Then the What’s On Channel <X>? screen is displayed again and the program asks about the association between programs and channels. This can take place several times in a row.
Select the program that you receive on the requested channel every time.
Nero LiquidTV™ will adopt the channel lineup if it can determine it from your answers. The configuration of the channel lineup is complete.
You can now select the TV source for the next tuner.
Please check the following link to see how to Assign TV Sources and Channels to the Tuner Cards:
→ If Nero LiquidTV™ detects that all available tuners are assigned to TV sources already then the All Tuner Card Set Up screen is displayed and you can begin the download of the TV program guide. (see Making the TV Program Guide Available)
If the provider whose cable channel lineup you have just configured also offers premium channels then the Premium Channels? screen is displayed (see Configuring Premium Cable Channels)
Configuring Premium Cable Channels
If you selected a cable provider who offers premium channels then the Premium Channels? screen is displayed.
Please note:
Premium channels have to be subscribed and generally cost money. You cannot subscribe to channels here. In Nero LiquidTV™ you can only use premium channels to which you have already subscribed.
Proceed as follows if you receive premium channels and want to use them in Nero LiquidTV™.
Use the Yes button in the Premium Channels? screen.
→ The Premium Channel List screen is displayed and lists the selected provider's premium channels
Select the premium channels that you are able to receive. To do so, move the selection bar over the respective channel entry and confirm the selection with the Select button.
→ The check boxes for the chosen premium channels are selected.
Use the Done button when you have selected all premium channels that you are able to receive.
→ The Cable Channels screen is displayed and informs you that the selected premium channels have been set up.
Press the Select button.
→ You have made the premium channels from the selected cable or satellite provider available for Nero LiquidTV™.
→ When you have configured the premium channels that you receive through the cable box then the configuration of the tuner that is currently in progress is finished. The Cable Box Brand screen is displayed and you can configure your box.
