As long as we’re trying to fix this. The episode numbers for This Old House are incorrect as well.
https://www.thisoldhouse.com/this-old-house Lists all the episodes for S41
Seems to be some issues with the E13 - 16 which was part of the “Paradise Lost” project.
The current Project " Season 41 - The Cape Ann House; Is being recorded with the guide saying it’s Episode 15 but in actuality it’s E17.
This has happened on other series as well and once it does and your recording things, your library is FUBAR.
Yep. I have resorted to recording to a hidden library that doesn’t show on the home screens and then manually copying recordings to the visible library once I know it is accurate.
Since the switch in EPG providers I’ve given up on recommending Plex to anyone as a DVR solution. Plex is like the opposite of set-it-and-forget-it now days. It requires too much babysitting to get anything useful out of the DVR system.
The database does show the discrepancies between titles and originally aired date - and the issue with the originally aired date is because we are picking the earliest date and it appears that for some episodes we have earlier Canada broadcasts
This shows all airings of the series extracted from the EPG database
How long does it usually take to fix these issues? Will you post here when it is resolved? Thanks.
Depends - sometimes it is very quick. Some issues are more complex.
I will post here once I get notified of the fix and I verify that it is ok - where I can
This was corrected on the 2nd April - I am not sure if the fix came through in time for the final
Checking the current airings which are repeats - this is what we have and it looks ok including the special
I think the Saturday Night Live episode scheduled for April 11 is supposed to be new. But the EPG currently does not mark it as new. That would be Saturday Night Live, 11:30PM Eastern (not the earlier one) on NBC.
And the show title is supposed to be “SNL at Home”. It is currently misidentified as John Mulaney rerun.
Yes, everything recorded correctly this Tuesday!
Well, somebody is trying anyway… As of 4/11 at 6:00AM the 11:30PM eastern SNL is correctly marked as new. However, the 10:00PM eastern SNL is incorrectly marked as new.
The 10PM SNL show is a repeat and should not be marked new.

@sa2000, The Lansing, MI list “Broadcast TV Lansing OTA Broadcast” (There are two with the same name in the list. The second one is more accurate) is missing channels 53.1 WLAJ-DT (ABC) and 53.2 WLAJ-DT (CW). Is there any chance you could get those added to the list?
I was able to find the form everyone is talking about. I submitted it there also. Thanks in advance for your help escalating this!
The EPG data for DC’s Legends of Tomorrow on CW is still wrong.

The upcoming episode is listed as S05E08 , when it is in fact S05E09. The episode markings have been wrong all season, and this is causing problems with episodes that are new being marked as not new/repeats.
Here is a screen shot of Plex DVR with the incorrect Episode numbering.
Here is a screen shot of the Episode Guide from IMDB with the correct Episode numbering.

EVERY freaking episode of victor and valentino is marked new now and all are endlessly recording multiple times.
Thankfully the “real” new V&V episodes are also marked new as well as properly split into 15 minute chunks.
EVERY dang “red bull signature series” (on every channel they air on) is STILL marked new, no matter if it says the original air date was seven freaking years ago!?!?! I now have almost 2TB of that BS to sift through and clean out.
Series numbering still completely fubar on all cartoons I’ve reported. Consistently fubar, but still fubar, with multiple identically labeled S/E shows with completely different actual episodes.
This BS makes it impossible to actually record this stuff entirely.

Is there a reason why S03E03 “airs” a week before S03E02?
I mean, at least they have different numbering so both will record…but…
It has been 14 days. How complex could it be to supply accurate episode information? Should I assume that they won’t be able to resolve this?
You screwed up SEAL Team and SWAT on CBS last night. Both were reruns, but Plex marked and recorded them as the next new episode.
So looking at next week 4/22 the episode numbers are off. Next week should be:
SEAL Team - S3E18 - Edge of Nowhere
SWAT - S03E19 - Vice
( DVR—Broadcast TV Grnvll-Spart-Ashvll OTA Broadcast)
NOTE: Plex, maybe your EPG data provider should buy a subscription to Gracenote and do a compare every week so they can flag any differences and give manual attention to it. At this point it’s just comical they keep screwing up practically every week for 9 months straight, while Gracenote seemingly has barely any inaccuracies. It would be undestandable if broadcasters were handing out bad data, but the Gracenote accuracy means that must not be the case.
Since April 1, 2020, the listings for channel 26.1 in Chicago contain errors.

It’s been several weeks, can someone please look into it?
