[QUOTE="MCelliotG, post: 1015714, member: 404726"] For simple consumer users of course any implementation that works should be more than enough. It's always easier to have these channels with no effort. This was not my question though. If this receiver provides a way for the users to manually input any new MIS/PLS data and can actually tune these, then it can get my attention. Until then, there is no magic trick to receiving these channels without the required data entered. They simply have these stored in the firmware leading people to believe that PLS reception is possible out of the gate. This is not the case here. Every time these parameters change the users need to flash an update and that's all! Props to them for automating (partly) T2-MI but a good implementation should also provide a manual way to enter all data too (this is why no one can tune PLP 1, they didn't put that in their firmware). DD+ and any audio support in STBs is hardware dependent. If their hardware does not support DD+ no software will with these specs at least. [/QUOTE]
