Plex pulling & showing the wrong channel lineup

General Discussions Plex Features

I’m in the Dayton, OH market.

For some reason, Plex is getting the wrong data for channel 22.1 WKEFDT (ABC), and instead shows data for WMNOCD (YOUTOAM).

In the Live TV & DVR settings, Manage Channels dialog, it displays 22.1 WKEF and the dropdown has 22.1 WKEFDT (ABC).

But when I go to the Program Guide, and select a show on that channel, it display 22.1 WMNOCD (YOUTOAM). If I actually watch the channel, though, it displays the expected ABC channel.

I have selected recordings which are correctly mapped to the 22.1 WKEF channel (and thus I was able to search and select them to be recorded), but unfortunately I have missed them all because Plex still thinks it’s a different channel!

This issue is present for web, xbox, android, and roku client apps.

Not that it will do any good, Plex/Gracenote seem perfectly content to take money and provide incorrect data even when they have been made aware of issues for several months.

Pretty sickening, I never had this issue with Schedules Direct, information was always corrected quickly and at about 1/3 the cost of Plex.
Ready to dump my Plex ‘Premier’ membership and just setup my own backend to dump recordings into a folder.
