Hello,
Trumpy81 gave me the hint that there is another thread with the same issue
Look at mine: Epg change of epg numbers tilts all airings, nothing will be recorded
So I want copy the complete thread but an idea which should be implemented from the Plex team, otherwise this software is really not usable, it’s frustrating ;(
One more: if you recorded a series from only explicit one specific channel this must be deleted an reprogrammed, due to the change of the epg number, Plex want find the Tagesschau at ARD daily 8 pm. If you schedule belongs to „all available“ channel“ I did not see this feature.
Idea
The solution would be quite simple. Every EPG Channel has a code e.g. ZDF aka ZDFGERH, if there is a method of trying to find the match is must be made not from the numbers or from the channelname in brackets, instead the alpha-code (ZDFGERH) must be taken. I think this alpha code will not change ever so it’s secure to use.
The best way would be a worksheet with two rows
1st row: what’s the name of the channel provided from HDHomerun (name not number)
2nd row: what is the alphacode of the epg provider
With this kind of sheet (once manual done) there should be no more trouble. I doesn’t take place very often that there are new channels or channels deleted, if so the admin has to manage this. The sheet should be generated and maintained from the admin via webgui.
Regards Thomas
