[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 4539, member: 174998"] If the options for adding PIDs are greyed out then my guess is that you are inadvertently looking at analogue tranponders, not digital ones. One of the coloured buttons will toggle between the two (see bottom of screen). With the screen in "digital tranponder mode" you can now add channels to an existing tranponder in this way: - select tranponder - move to the channel name field and go right/left until "????" is displayed (if there are no channels on the tranponder, this will be the default displayed) - hit the ok/select button and enter a channel-name using the mini on-screen keyboard - move to the PID fields and type the correct PID numbers - save the data (press ok/select) and exit. The channel will now be at the bottom of the list for that satellite. If you gave valid PIDs and are have the necessary cards/CAMs (if applicable) then you will already have a picture. 2old [/QUOTE]
