Using Plex LiveTV without EPG

General Discussions Plex Features

Hi :smile:

I would like to use LiveTV without EPG (as my satellite channels do not belong to only one single provider proposed during DVR setup).

Is there a way to ignore setup of EPG, and simply browse by channels to watch Live TV without any program guide ?

Thanks !

At present, NO.

Thanks @cayars for the quick answer ! Waiting patiently for future updates then :wink:
Would be awesome to be able to simply browse by channel names :slight_smile:

Plex is working on adding something of a more traditional Grid View. This of course would make channel changing much easier when you know what channel you wish to watch.

I’m the same way, in that I watch a lot of CNN and Fox News with some MSNBC mixed in here and there. I always know the exact channel I wan to watch and they are all right next to each other. Would make for simple “up/down” commands on the remote (like normal TV) or hit the grid view for channel change.

I have no idea of the timeline but do know it’s been announced here in the forums so the end is in sight. :slight_smile:

Thanks cayars, hope this is coming soon with no obligation to use EPG ! :smile:

Any update on this? Seems like watching the same M3U through VLC works 100% of the time but Plex has trouble with EPG/XMLTV.

This feature request would really help with reliability…
