How to map Local Broadcast Channels mapping with dot (5.1, 6.2, etc...)

[mpham64]

I have Schedule Direct and DirectTV. In Schedule Direct, I have to have a DirectTV lineup, and a local broadcast lineup. The DirectTV line up has channels that are whole numbers 72, 202, etc... But the localbroadcast channels have dots followed by numbers, 5.1, 5.2, 10.1, 10.2, etc... So when GBPVR gets the listings, all my DirectTV channels listings are fine, and the local channels are empty. I couldn't find a place in GBPVR that allows me to use channels with the dot notation. Someone in this forum must have been through this, I searched, but couldn't find anything relevant.

Any info is appreciated.

I'm running GBPVR v1.3.11 on an XP machine.

GBPVR does not support dotted channel notation. You can edit the "Channel" table and "name" field in the database to add the dotted channel number. Then edit the <TVGuideChannelHeaderType> in config.xml to display the name instead of callsign. I can't remember the exact value to use but you can search the forums.
