NEW EPG Issue

[mototom]

I just upgraded from 1.2.9 to 1.2.13 but this issue was there before the upgrade.

I am getting my STARZ channel listings in #s 609-620 instead of in channel #s 521-529 as I used to. DirecTV uses the 521-529 sequence. My SchedulesDirect lineup looks fine but each time I "remove" the undesired #s they keep coming back when I update the EPG. Illoks like there's a bad association somewhere but I don't know where to go to fix it.

FWIW, the other channels seem to be fine.

Thanks.

Do you have duplicate channels in your channel lineup? If so, GB-PVR will only show those with the highest number.

There are no duplicate channels. And, FWIW, I have not changed anything when this occurred. The only time I delete things is when Schedules Direct adds channels that I do not want to see. Here is my Config file.

Thanks, turajb, but I have regularly done that. I have about 35 channels that use and regularly cull those I do not use on SchedulesDirect.

I'm wondering if a full uninstall/reinstall might solve the issue.

Now that the fall lineups are back, this has more urgency than it did during the summer when I don't watch much TV.

Thanks again for your advice.

I finally figured out what was going on an fixed it today.

SchedulesDirect or DirecTV had renamed the Starz/Encore channels. First I deleted all the channels with old names. Then I renumbered the new named items. Saved it all and it's now working again.

I did find a great suggestion on this forum. A user in a similar thread suggested using SQLite Expert, Personal Version (Free). This made for a very easy way to delete unwanted channels that constantly come up in the DirecTV listings, especially when there are more than 1 or 2.

After I fixed this problem I found that I could no longer tune my Starz programs using Directv.exe. Other channels worked fine. Today I figured that out too.

Somehow all my upper channels when presented within the Capture Device dialog, were the wrong numbers. They were correct in the Config Channel Tab but Directv.exe was sending the numbers in the Capture Device dialog. E.G., 532 was listed in the Capture Device Dialog as 437 but was showing as 532 in the Program Guide. Keying 532 was getting me to 437.

I have no idea how this happened and could not find a the incorrect numbers referenced anywhere in gbpvr.db3 using SQLite Expert Personal. Hope that they do not change again.
