Tuner Make/Model:  
Guide/Lineup name:  
Using XMLTV?:  
Channel number/Name:

I have a couple of channels not found in my local EPG data and I’m trying to figure out how to add it. On Plex’s help page is says there is a button called “+ Add channels form another lineup/location” ([Live TV & DVR (Set Up and Manage) | Plex Support](https://support.plex.tv/articles/225877347-live-tv-dvr/)), but on my setup page I don’t see it under the EPG location.

Is there somewhere else I need to look for this?

You can only do that when you are first adding the device. Delete DVR, wait a minute and then re-add.
