I'm wanting to do a re scan as I'm missing what looks like a good new channel - but can't see how to rescan and am scared of mucking everything else up. Is there an easy way?

Just because it works on Windows doesn't mean it works on Linux.I suggested trying it on another machine to check the actual tuner is working first of all which is common practise when fault finding.
Quote:The AverMedia AverTV Hyper Volar HX (A287/A286) cards are not supported on OpenELEC after release 2.99.1 (3.0 RC1). AverMedia stopped developing the drivers for these cards in 2009 and although a level of driver hacking has kept them on life-support for a few more years the switch to the 3.7 kernel in 2.99.2 (3.0 RC2) kills support for them properly. If you are desperate to use these cards you may be better off with a normal linux distro where you have choice of kernels.

In terms of Freeview, you basically need to pick a backend PVR application for you preferred OS (so this is a tvheadend subforum, which means Windows is out as a host OS as tvh is Linux-only unless you want to play with VMs). Best to read up on PVR (wiki) and then start a new thread as needed in the appropriate subforum, as there's no point in asking about NPVR or Argus here if you end up going that way, for example, although you are in the right place if you plump for tvheadend under OpenElec. It's very dependent on what you want, and what else if anything you want to use the computer for.
