I just noticed that all TV channels have their respective schedules listed in both > devices. >  Television and in Theater view >. Guide EXCEPT our local CBS & NBC affiliates. I never noticed this before and actually believe their too once had schedules. I have tried re scanning a couple times and can't resolve the problem. Any ideas why?

Thx

Do those channels that do not show up share program guide entries with other channels?

[jrdiandrea]

I'm not sure. How do I verify that?

[Yaobing]

TV Options... > Advanced > Edit Channel list...

Click the channel in question and notice the XMLTV Identifier under Details.

Click other channels to see if any one uses the same.  This is not practical if you have a lot of channels.

Alternative: make a "TV channels" smartlist and make sure the column for "TV XMLTV ID" is shown.  You can then sort the list by the XMLTV IDs.

[Yaobing]

I should have said that you first need to check that the affected channels do have XMLTV ID associated with them and the IDs are correct.  If the answer to both are yes, then check if there are other channels (mistakenly) use the same IDs (as described in my previous post).

OK, thx. Will check it out

[jrdiandrea]

Yaobing. I looked at what you suggested and of course, your right .... I have several hundred channels which would make it impossible to check each channel to see if any had same ID. What I ended up doing was to load a different system....mine had 2 ....the one that was loaded was our system labeled "digital" which I had loaded originally. I then loaded the other one which apparently is analogue. I rebooted server then reloaded the digital. Then all was good. The 2 channels that would not show up in guide nor display schedules in guide or Television now appears as it should. I dont know exactly what fixed it but all is good.

Thx
