I've tried every combination in config, and labs.zap2it, and can't seem to get this figured out. Any ideas?

Too many tuners? Big Grin

How big is your gbpvr.mdb?
You could download MyGuide from the Zap2It forum, then grab today’s listings to see if the problem is with their data delivery.

I had that problem due to daylight savings, and it cleared up the next day (I also have epg set to reload). It happens every DST. It could be something about the timeshift continues to be a problem, esp if they are US channels.

Try setting EPG to do a reload, if you haven't already. Also, try opening DB in access to see what is in that block at that time/channel. You may find a gap or overlap that way.

If you run "GBPVR.exe -onlyemptyepg" followed by "GBPVR.exe -updateepg" does it come right?

Reloaded the tv guide 4 or 5 times. It's actually been this way for a couple of weeks, so DST shouldn't be a factor.
mdb is 4.01 meg
I really don't want to have to recreate it. Too many reoccuring and scheduled recordings to set up again.
Gonna try MyGuide...
Keep the suggestions coming.

Did you try it the way I suggested, or did you do it in the config app?

Is it just these four channels causing problems, or is there lots more also?

This can be caused by Zap2it channel subscriptions that are duplicates but mapped to different numeric channel numbers. I have seen it myself. I have Directv Satellite and there are local channels that are mapped to both their "normal" local channel assignments (2-64 ) as well as channel numbers in the 800+ range. This is due to the fact that early Directv STBs would not remap channels to their normal local numbers, later STB's did do this. Zap2it carries the data both ways but they are duplicates in every way but the channel number.
About a month ago I was getting holes in my guide data for some local channels , I went on Zap2it and they had auto subscribed me to the duplicates in the 800 range, which conflicted with my subscription in the 2-64 range somehow and created the holes in the EPG. Once i removed the duplicate channels at Zap2it, the holes in the EPG were filled and all was back to normal.
YMMV

After much messing around, in capture source config, and channels, and at zap2it, I got it fixed.
The problem was with a channel number change.
Channel 6 (KING) became Channel 48.
A new channel was added in place of it at chan 6.
Zap2it has the source as chan 53, yet in the lineup it's 6.
Totally confusing bit of work, to get 6 to show up in it's proper place between 5 and 7. Had to fix it in the Channels tab, and in the source config.
Not intuitive at all!
Thanks for all the tips that led me in the right direction Big Grin
