Thanks
Canât match channel to guide - channel missing.
55082 Zip
Broadcast TV Minneapolis - St. Paul OTA Broadcast
13.5 StartTV has no match in selectable channels.
Thanks for raising this. I would like to understand why this is different from what is documented here for Minneapolis
This gives channel 4.2 for StartTV which is available on the
Broadcast TV Minneapolis - St. Paul OTA Broadcast lineup
13.5 shows for La Crosse in Wisconsin
Is the 55082 zip code area not receiving the channel on 4.2 ? Or are you in a different zip code area from the one you are using for the lineup?
Also checking RabbitEars.Info - Market Listings does not show 13.5 available for Minneapolis.
Nope, I am in Stillwater in zip 55082. Just noticed I was getting extra channels detected by my HDHR Extend. Went to match them up. It likely isnât any different as you pointed out. I missed that. Channels from that far away arenât going to be as strong as the ones out of Minneapolis / St. Paul. Now that you mention where it is from, I would be hard pressed to even get that signal.
The wind must have been blowing in the right direction during the most recent auto scan.
Thanks. 
Thanks for confirming - so you got the channel you want ok on 4.2

That is correct. Strong signal for 4.2 StartTV.
Thanks for checking.
This was fixed sometime back.
Are there any remaining issues with it ?
The season finale was last week and there doesnât seem to be any rerun episodes this week.
Thank you - I just noticed that when searching for it.
Hopefully the fix was there in time before the Tuesday nightâs finale
Catching up with old actions
The channel was added on 22 May and EPG data was in place about a week later.
Consumer 101 should be new tomorrow, but Plex doesnât think so.

Is there a reason why guide data is down to eight days now and has not updated in a week?
We have two daysâ updates to ingest at the moment - It is possible that the Monday files will extend the days.
But this should not be the case at this moment as data was ingested sunday night
has not updated in a week
There was a major data ingestion issue at our provider on 12 and 13 june - that may have been a factor.
At this moment we are 2 updates behind. I will post here when the updates have been completed and let me know if you spot issues with forthcoming airings
The ingestions of the last 2 dayâs updates has completed and cache cleared by now - please could you refrresh the guide manually and see if you still spot issues
Five additional days of guide data has been received.
Iâm having major issues with this new EPG since itâs release. It seems to get worse week by week. My provider is Spectrum in Manhattan.
One example is Channel 1209 (CBS) - Inside edition - within Plexâs guide it shows incorrect episode numbers. ie, in Plex it shows Episode (S32·E106 Are Some Hotels Not Changing Sheets Even During COVID-19) but itâs actually S32E211. Sometimes the shows are added into a 2020 folder with no Episode numbers or titles at all. Along with this, most local channels like CBS, ABC etc do not pull any artwork. Iâm left with stock icons/pictures of cameramen and anchors when Plex cannot find the correct art work.
Most news shows along with a few TV Shows are also inaccurate with the metadata along with many other incorrect channel lineups.
As a test, I setup with the the same hardware using Emby. Using the provider âCharter Spectrum Southern Manhattan - Digital New Yorkâ all the EPG data downloads correctly. S32E211 for the show mentioned above was correct!
Is there a way to subscribe back to âGracenoteâ or other providers like âSchedules directâ? Iâm aware of XMLTV implementation but this is a not so easy to set it up on my UNRAID server.
This new âpowered by Plexâ is an absolute disaster!!! I have waited for months and months patiently for Plex to migrate and fix these major flaws, but nothing seems to improve, it just gets worse. Please allow us to choose our own provider or please fix the DVR/Guide altogether. Thank you for your time.
Here is a comparison screenshot for the next day of âInside Editionâ from Plex EPG and Emby EPG. Plex shows incorrect âS32E107â Emby shows correct âS32E212â
Getting really, really, really tired of the EPG data being worthless.

No Season / Episode data, 4th time in a row. Hey, Season 2020 sounds just dandy! Good luck figuring out what season and episode it should really be. I shouldnât have to!
People pay a premium for this. This is what we get?
One thing I canât figure out is how it can be so inconsistent. A show can run along for weeks without issue then suddenly gets screwed up. Meanwhile EPGs using Gracenote remain accurate. If everyone was screwed up you could say it was the channel provider. But when itâs just a single provider itâs like they are making stuff up and not pulling from any official data source.
I have a syndicated airing of Heartland on Saturdays. The first part of season 13, Plex thought it was still in season 12. Finally got it fixed around episode 5 and everything was accurate for a couple episodes. Then somehow episode 8 and 9 were off showing 9 and 10 for the numbers but still having an accurate episode title. Then when the season finale of episode 10 aired this past week it was back on track with the number and title accurate.
This channel normally just repeats the current season over and over until the next season comes out. Looking at the upcoming week, Plex has next Saturday wrong, showing S11E08, while Gracenote shows Season 13 starting over at 1 again. Based on track record, Gracenote is probably right.
Iâve seen similar happen on other national airings on Plex. The show is accurate for weeks then suddenly itâs off by one episode number repeatedly (all while Gracenote listings stay accurate).
Well has anybody else noticed that this thread has been running over a year already? Nothing. The whole DVR is a mess, the EPG doesnât work and Iâm truly pulling my hair out with frustration. I would totally switch to Emby even though Iâm a customer of theirs, but, I wonât because of the lack of ComSkipping.
Everything we say on this forum seems to fall on deaf ears. I really hope that Iâm wrong and that we will all be surprised when Plex releases a whole new DVR experience. Now wouldnât that be nice?
I mean, you canât even clear out past scheduled recordings without selecting one by one waiting for a popup to âcancel recordingâ then wait 20 seconds for the pop up to disappear to then scroll to the next TV show or Movie to do exactly the same process. Itâs insanley mundane. Donât forget about how you have to scroll up and down with each show or movie one by one to prioritise recordings in an ever endless pointless scheduling interface.
For me, the scheduled recordings do not even automatically disappear as they should. Playing a Live stream takes well over 30 secs because I canât easily clean out my DVR. I wish I new how to open up the XML file to edit it easily away from the useless interface. Does anybody know how?
Back to the EPGâŠplease let us pay $25 a year for a decent guide or switch back to Gracenote for free, like it was before. Emby thinkâs itâs good enough for them to switch.
Itâs beyond me.
