GB-PVR will be downloading all the information zap2it supplies. If you're missing some channels, either they're not in your zap2it lineup, or zap2it is not supplying any listings for these channels.

All so when i get this usbuirt when i change the channel in gbpvr will it change the channel on the cable box.

Is that a question?

I am having similar problem, from reading some of the other posts it does not sound like a problem with gbpvr but here is my specific situation.

I am in US and have a valid zap2it account. Have set up channel lineups for my cable system (Time Warner in Columbia South Carolina zip 29169) and Dishnetwork satellite. On the satellite line up I have enabled only those channels I'm interested in about 82 out of the 743 total. Now when I tell gbpvr to update epg it loads in the data fine. All of the cable channels are there, but there are several satellite channels missing such as Discovery channel at 182, TLC at 183 and several more. I know there should be info for these channels. Do I need to contact zap2it about this? or does anyone know a work around?

Have zap2it give you the FULL lineup of 743 channels, then disable the ones you don't want in gbpvr config.
It may take awhile, but you'll only have to do it once.

OK

I will try that. But out of curiosity, why won't it properly download my selected lineup from zap2it?

[fiteclub]

OK,
Just tried downloading the full lineup for dishnetwork. Many more channels came down, but several of them did not including the ones that did not come down originally. Any more ideas? Is this a zap2it problem or a gbpvr problem? HELP!

Sounds like a zap2it problem. They don't have a totally current lineup of all the channels available to you, in your area.
Try a couple of alternate cities close to where you are. Larger centers are better supported.

Interesting theory, but the dishnetwork satellite lineup should be the same for most of the country in my time zone excluding the locals which dishnetwork spot beams to different cities. The channels I am missing are not locals they are nationwide channels like Discovery etc.

BTW; is there any way to enable and disable channels other than clicking each individual box; ie a check all or clear all button? Also is there a quick way to remove all or a block of channels while doing all this experimenting?
