Call me stupid, but I can't see how to make a favorites list after hitting the green button a third time.

Sorry, as you were displaying your found terrestrial channel list in last scanned bouquet, I thought that you might not be aware of the other ways to sort the service lists. I was just defining the multiple ways to display your service list (channels).

The easiest way to make or manage a favorites list is with a PC on your network with native WebIF (the router assigned IP address in a browser) or using editing software like DreamBox Edit.

No problem. You taught me something anyway!

Just an update..

I'm still deciding on an outdoor antenna, but in the meantime, I found an old indoor antenna in the garage and tried it.. Receiving 18 channels.. all the local ones, all viewable. I was quite surprised! My only complaint, they are out of order..

Could you post a picture of the connection as it plugs into the Mio?

He probably used a balun to attach the antenna to the mio since most indoor antennas use 300 ohm cable.

The antenna had a coax cable and I simply screwed it into the Hauppauge 1578, which of course plugged into the rear USB port of the Mio.

There is an ebay posting for Hauppauge 950Q USB stick only for $13 shipped. I got 2 for myself. Here is the link.

Hey Guys, I am a new one to FTA and am just learning how this all works. I am trying to get my Edision OS Mio to work with my Hauppauge TV receiver and looking trhough here I am finding lots of information, but, nothing that my newbie brain can process. Is there a step by step set of instructions on how to get this to work? I have it working on my computer, but, not with the STB. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Which Hauppauge dongle do you have?

You have to go into the Plugins menu and download the drivers for the dongle.

Only certain models are supported.

Menu->Plugins->Download plugins->Drivers and then select which Hauppauge device you have. You have to reboot after installing the driver. Then you can scan in the local OTA channels.

Are any of you having to reboot your box because the edison stops seeing the 950q? No matter what image I use I have to reboot my mio 4K plus for it to see the 950q again.

Yes. I have a 955q though. It happens probably because it doesn't securely plug into the usb port.

I even used a USB extension cable to see if it was a poor connection. Still happens. Probably the software on the ATSC stick i bet.

I find that I have to keep rebooting my osmio4k in order to get the dish to move again, also.

Thanks for the help! I was able to get the drivers, seems they were loaded when I plugged it in. I had to go into the tuners and set up them up. This then allowed me to do a scan. I am now getting the off air channels! Thanks again for the help.
PS. I am also located in a field in Southern Missouri, deep in the Ozarks and so far back I am lucky to have a zip code!!!

Hello from the Missouri state line in Drexel.

FWIW, I recently acquired a 950Q and have it on my OS Mio 4K. In the limited amount I've been able to use it, it seems to tune the OTA channels just as good as any of the TVs that I have. I am pleased with the purchase.

 

[LocutusOfBorg]

Are there other adapters that are compatible with the osmio4k? The audio quality that I get from the 955q has a lot of background white noise.

did you try your 995Q on a PC? I have a 950Q and i have not noticed any background noise on the osmio4k. Only negative I have seen is that occasionaly it will lose its lock on a signal (maybe to a temprary drop in an already weak signal) and not recover it.
