eatapeach Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 I am new to programming C4 and need a little help setting up my favorite channels.When I go to Media and look under Broadcast...all I see is FM/AM Radio, Cable TV, UHF/VHF, and Internet Radio. I do not see my cable box, Motorola driver for Verizon Fios. When I was at the training we did this with a DirecTV driver and a Favorites option was there and it was very simple. How do I go about this with my cable box?Thanks for any and all help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Cable TV is the default Broadcast cloud for anything built under a cable box - regardeless of provider. So that's the one you would use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joepap Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) When you go to search and enter your zip.....is there anything you can do if your provider is not listed? For instance, I'm in 20011 (washington dc) and comcast and a few others come up.....but no verizon fios. Anything we can do with this? UPDATE_-- entered a few different zip codes and found some verizon fios.... sorry for the bother! just had to play around more....but still annoying that it doesn't list it in my zip.

Benoît van Osch Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I also want to set up favorite cannels from multiple satellite boxes and would like to select these from the navigator or on-screen display. I can see cable TV in the broadcast lift but not sure how I go about setting these up for different boxes as I do not seem to be able to select the source of the channel. Any support on this would be much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 you dont - it does it automativcally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benoît van Osch Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I was referring to favorite TV channels from different sources/satellite boxes and if there is a way to configure these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 you have to add the cloud, bind it the driver and then load the channels in the media tab. Finally show it in navigator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benoît van Osch Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Many thanks I managed to get the clouds added. Each unique satellite box has its own cloud and are binded. I set up favourite channels for two clouds and they are showing on the navigators however when I select a favourite channel it does not go to the set channel. Surely the cloud should be transmitting the channel number to the satellite box it is binded to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benoît van Osch Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 The discrete numbers do work on the remote so are set up correctly for the satellite driver. Is this something awkward that perhaps needs a reset of the controller before it works? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 No. It should just work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Then you don't have the favorites w the right channels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benoît van Osch Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 The channels are correct but it looks like they aren’t transmitted to the satellite boxes via IR. Maybe a timing issue? Will give it another try later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crypto Frank Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Is it possible to have the Favorite channels page default after the client chooses cable tv? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
