Need channels across multiple DMAs in EPG

Live TV & DVR

Hello,
I have channels I watch that straddle two different Nielsen DMAs. If I choose one DMA via zipcode, I miss a few channels and if I choose the other then I miss a different set of channels. Is there a way to enter multiple zipcodes into the EPG wizard then select out the duplicates? This is the reason why I didn’t keep Plex Pass when I tried it last year.

Thanks for the help in advance.

Server Version#: 1.18.9.2571
Player Version#: 4.30.1
Tuner Make/Model: HDHR3-US
Guide/Lineup name: 43725
Using XMLTV?: No
Channel number/Name:

I have the exact same problem where I live, Wish I could just enter 2 zip codes or something. Does anyone know how to fix this ?

You would think it would be that easy, but there’s no provision for that. I’m reduced to putting other channels in the guide as substitutes, but it isn’t a long term solution. At least this functionality is free for now, which I certainly appreciate.

A possible solution for this is to use an XML EPG, and combine the EPG for the markets you need before you load the XML. It does require extra work on your part to get it set up. See this link to another thread where I had found some resources on how to do this. There is also a thread you can vote for to have Plex add the ability to allow multiple EPG sources.
