Just a quick heads up for Live TV & DVR users that might have missed it, today’s 4.57.2 release for web now includes support for multiple lineups. Have a channel from a distant market that wasn’t included in your local lineup? Add a second zip code to include that locations lineup and match that ch…

@plex: I found a major issue: you either need to use all supported countries, or all XML EPG. Mixing would be so much better!

Please add the ability to specify the channel number or guide line-up that is coming from the tuner. This is creating havoc in my Comcast area where we have several duplicate channels of HD (in the 200’s, 800’s, and 1,000’s). My original plex setup allowed me to keep my channel numbers in the 1000…

[image] soapdishbandit: it randomly assigns them and now I have channels showing on Plex EPG in the 100’s, 200’s, 400’s, 600’s, 800’s, 900’s, and 1 1000 something, completely out of any order. Even though in my HD Homerun tuner, I disabled all but the 1000’s. This explains the problem I ran …

I think I found a glitch and was able to fix the guide. Using Plex Media Player (older, unsupported version),I was able to use the old interface and go to cable card tuner and manually change each…and…every…channel. Took forever, but, now they are in the order I need. However, it doesn’t show the…

If a Source 1 and Source 2 have a channel number that’s the same but they’re a different program how does that work? Example, on channel 750 with one cable provider is Discovery and the other cable provider is Food Network how do I let the guide distinguish between the two or do I have to lose a cha…

[image] Cafe_Diem: On my guide, they show up as different channels. Which for me is good: My OTA channels have higher quality than the equivalent Comcast channels. But your mileage may vary on that. How do you get them to show up as different channels. I have 3 tuners from different geograph…

Are they all ATSC? It’s possible Plex can separate between sources (ATSC vs. Cable) but can’t separate multiple ATSC lineups. Maybe Plex assumes that since you can’t be in two geographical regions, you wouldn’t have two different ATSC lineups, so all 5.1’s are combined. I’m just tossing out a guess…

Mine are all OTA related however, the purpose of adding multiple tuners is to allow for different geographical locations. That was the big change with the recent update is to pull guides from different zip codes. I’ll patiently await a response from a plex team member or a fix I guess at this poin…

Can anyone from plex let us know if they plan to allow to use Plex EPG for one tune and XML EPG for another?

I brought this up over a week ago and the person that is working on it… I hope, is not responding. Which leads me to believe either he’s working on it or is in Fiji sipping mojitos🤷‍♂️. Rolling back your server is the only fix.
