Live TV Unavailable

Increasingly, I am getting the “Live TV is Unavailable” error message when attempting to tune into channels under Program Guide. I still have HDHR Fling installed as a channel, and for each live channel that Program Guide indicates that it cannot load, HDHR Fling fires them up with no problems.

Sometimes, I can “trick” it by tuning into a different channel that loads, and then go back to the previous channel that didn’t load originally and it works. But as of late, this isn’t working out quite so well.

My Plex server is running on a WIndows 7 Professional PC with an Intel Core i5 @ 3.40GHz with 8GB RAM. My tuner is a HD HomeRun Extend, and I view Pleax content via a TCL Roku TV and an Insignia Roku TV.

As a “just in case” measure, I created a batch file to reboot my HD HomeRun turner, and use Task Scheduler to reboot it automatically 2 nights a week.

Program Guide does work, it just doesn’t seem to be working as good as it did when first launched.

Any tips, tricks, ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Are you missing channels at all by any chance? Like do you have more channels on your HD HomeRun than you do on Plex?

I’m asking this because there was a mapping issue with mine, and once I fixed that bug, it fixed the errors with loading channels too.

No missing channels. 59 in Program Guide and the same 59 in HomeRun.
