Using XMLTV?: No
Channel number/Name: DVR—Local Broadcast Listings (112 channels)
I just set up a new HomeRun Flex 4K with my WD PR2100 NAS and brand new Channel Master roof antenna. Signals are super strong (from Miami) and the Live TV/DVR function in Plex seems to be working well - so far.
Question is this: when Plex scanned the available channels, it came up with 112. However, it can only “enable” 82 of them in the Guide. When I go into Manage Channels and manually switch the disabled ones on, after a Guide refresh the PMS seems to have switched them “off” again.
Some of these are “fringe” channels but others have content I’d like to be able to watch. There doesn’t seem to be any way to tune in a channel that’s not found and in the Guide. In other words, there doesn’t seem to be a way to manually tune to a channel unless it’s matched to an entry in Plex’s EPG.
Am I missing something? The bare HDHomeRun app allows me to tune in anything that the antenna can find, regardless of whether it has accompanying program data.
Appreciate any help from this august group! Thanks!
Sometimes the link between channel and epg was lost, now in current version of Plex it’s still linked, but I don’t know why some Channels aren’t visible
Removing the Device and readding and relinking is working - but why I have to do this again and again? That’s fckng annoying!
EDIT: Disabling, saving it, reloading web app and reenabling / Linking of the Channel is working, too. But why can it not stay working itself?
I have the same issue. For me I believe is that the stations Plex doesn’t accept are stations that are actually in a separate or different listing guide area. Example, I live in Mississippi on the Alabama Line. My Plex guide will show me stations for Mississippi only but my HDHomeRun guideline-up has the stations that I receive from Mississippi and Alabama. In the past I would put different (Alabama) zip code in the Plex station search but all that did is give me the few stations from the Zip code covered area and I would loose my local listings. They need to fix this. I can only pull in 19 stations on a good day with the HDHomeRun but the Plex guide only recognizes about 12 of them.
