Correct cable for VM?

[ste]

he's getting fta channels via autoscan, pretty sure its the net id

Yes but if you scan via ABM without disabling sat tuner first then it will give the tuning failed error.

I cant set that option in ABM. I can with the auto scan though. (Which I have done)

If you have a genuine VM box you can find out what net ID you need from that

Bingo! Manchest 3 worked, well it scanned 300+ channels. Some progress at last.

You enter it manually in the Network ID part - I have a H5.2TC and i'm looking at it now.

the net id is always the likely cause, glad your sorted. Once your vm line is added the hd channels will clear

Knew it would - on the link to the list I provided, it's down as Runcorn... you should get around 380 channels. You need to use ABM though to scan properly and have all your channels into bouquets.

Have you added it to the correct file. If your line begins N then stick it in the cccam.cfg file in keys and then save file. Now have cam 1 selected as cccam 2.3 and restart it

Or if you wish to run the N with mgcam change the N to CWS = line details and add it to the newcamd.list file in keys and have cam 1 as mgcam 1.38 and restart cams

I changed the N to CWS =
Refreshed it and it worked straight away :)
