Live TV EPG - The update you’ve been waiting for

I have referred this to Gracenote

Whilst we do not support Satellite on DVR - but as the lineup exists, I have passed a request to Gracenote to review the current Freesat (184 channels) lineup giving this link as the current channels Channels List & On-Demand Players | Freesat

I gave them a UK post code - I see from your account that you are not in the UK

Zip code?

I just tried zip code 73301 as one being in Austin Texas and there is Local Broadcast Listings lineup with 87 channels

If you still have problems please make sure you have debug logging enabled on the server, restart the Plex Media Server and then go through DVR Settings and click on the DVR “enabled channels” link and see what pops up - capture the server logs when the problem arises and Refresh Guide does not work

and attach screenshot and the server logs and give the zip code used for DVR Setup

Having this looked into. Thanks

I’ve changed this to “Ausstrahlung”. But it may take quite a while before it appears in a released server version.

I have this reported as an issue. Updates to channels in the Favorites do not get picked up and the channel needs to be removed and re-added to favorites

Great, do you think the channels will be added now, Since its within scope. This just proves that gracenote is lazy.

Thank you.

The link you provided is the channel list I use myself. I am in Ireland but we are able to pick up these channels.

Thanks for referring

I have raised an internal request to extend the Browse Guide functionality to add extra filters

I think so - may be initially they were basing their response on the request for adding 19.1

This has now been referred to the Plex Web development team

Thank You. I’d used numerous ZIP codes from the area. The one that had been working for a few years was 78613 (Cedar Park). Your recommended one WORKS!!
THANK YOU AGAIN.!!

Hi, there’s a few channels missing from the EPG for zip code 80924:

5.7 - HSN2
12.4 - NHK
48.6 - Charge!

Thanks for all the hard work.

Hey @sa2000
there’s still a bug when recording Episodes with date in naming schema…

here an example:
i record an episode, removing ads, resize and convert it to mkv - saving in the same DVR folder.

PS: The Season/Episode naming schema works correct.

PPS: after Mediathek rescan - the Recorded Episode is recorded repeatedly.

Hi All,

Could someone point me in the right direction.

I’m having issues streaming live TV from my plex server to my TV.

Im running an Intel NUC (Carleton) with a wintv dual tuner via USB.

Plex shows two green dots for signal strength.

My server is hardwired to the router. My TV connects very closely to my mesh network which is also hard wired to the router.

I’ve had no issues streaming 1080p on other media.

So question is, where is the breakdown. TV signal, Intel NUC power? WiFi?

Help please!

I started using the Live TV & PVR functionality yesterday and it works very well.

Only thing I noticed is that there’s is 1 channel missing in every EPG source.

I’m located in the Netherlands, and the channel in question is ‘Eurosport 1’ (ES1NLHD). As workaround I mapped the german channel (EUROSGR) from line-up ‘Canaal Digitaal (582 channels)’ which has the same programming, but then the EPG is in the wrong language. The ‘Eurosport 2’ channel seems to be available in every source, so not sure why Eurosport 1 is missing.

Channel overview on the Ziggo website: here.

  • The lineup name: Ziggo (130 channels)
  • Channel number and channel name: 20 - Eurosport 1
  • Your country: Netherlands
  • Postal code: 3514 HW
  • Region/market: The Netherlands
  • Version of Plex Media Server in use: 1.31.0.6654

Any response from them, this should be easy for them to add…

Now TV6 is working but TV3 has disappeared.

  • A Boxer channel is missing from the EPG.
  • Lineup Name: “Boxer Antenn (51 channels)”
  • Channel; TV3
  • Sweden
  • Postal Code: 47193
  • PMS 1.31.1.6782

May be there was a network or cloudflare issue at the time - I just tried zip code 78613 and got lineup Local Broadcast Listings (243 channels) returned for selection.

Thanks
