I got the Locast extra working on Windows after a few tries-

-I had to edit fcc_dma_markets.json to add my market.  
-Auto Mapping with Schedules Direct didn't work for me.   I ended up doing it manually to get it going.  

Locast is behind the main broadcast a few minutes in my area so +3 minute padding is necessary at the minimum.

What is the market so I can check? I haven't update the addon since last year and I know locast.org has added markets.

You would need to Auto map SchedulesDirect with an OTA lineup and map by numbers.

I haven't had any issues with default padding but I guess it is a YMMV thing.

Thanks so you just added this to fcc_dma_markets.json

"517": "CHARLOTTE",

If so I will add all of them even those that don't currently have locast.org

Yes that is correct. The last market won't have a comma at the end of the line. The install script will fail if it's not formatted correctly.
