I'll assume you actually own a DVB-C compatible tuner.
• First make sure you have VM BB/TV or a active VM cable.
• If so, good. Get a F-Type to Coax adapter and attach it to the end of your VM cable.
• Hook it up to your DVB-C tuner.
• Once hooked up, head over to Menu -> System -> Service Searching -> Tuner Configuration
• Click on your DVB-C tuner in the list
• Put tuner type on DVB-C,
configuration mode: enabled
Network ID : (yours)
Used service scan type : Provider
Provider to scan : Virgin Media (6952)
• This will have the tuner set up. Then just go to System -> Service Searching -> AutobouqetsMaker and select "Start Scan"
• Let it scan
Channels should now appear scanned. Let me know if you need EPG help!

My little help was based on OpenVIX, I don't think other images are too different, but if they are, I'm sure someone here can help out :)

Under providers in autoboquetmaker, select virgin media, then enter your net ID in the item that appears underneath

Depends if you are using CCCam or MGCamD I think. Are you going to be using a N line or a C line?

Take it you're using Blackhole image?

yeah using black hole
think ive just cracked it

 

[maclee]

Is there anyway of auto switching the cams themselves when switching from sat to cable channels instead of manually swapping cams

You can put both lines in one cam

 

[maclee]

Thanks for quick reply
I see so I can put both in usr/keys folder as mgcamd files

 

[dangerous]

I take it you have a C line and an N line?

 

[maclee]

Yeah pal. Using a c line for sat and nline for cable. I ll just ask provider to send me nline. So I can put it in same folder as cable. Is that rite
