Title: JRiver changing the Digital Terrestrial Lineup download method or not ?
Post by: kstuart on July 27, 2015, 02:04:26 pm

In the EPG thread it was reported that Microsoft had made a change in their data that JRiver refers to as "Digital Terrestrial Lineup" and that WMC has the data and MC20 does not.

From the responses, it is unclear whether JRiver is working on restoring "Digital Terrestrial Lineup" (by changing to Rovi format) or is giving up on that source.

Can this be clarified?   Thanks.

PS  Here is a post from MS establishing that the data is now available again in WMC after users rerun WMC setup:

and apparently this required a software update of some sort:

Microsoft is now releasing an update that will cause Windows Media Center to retrieve electronic program guide data from Rovi, the same source being used for the Xbox One. Currently this change is only happening for customers in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Brazil.

Please copy and paste to the EPG thread.   I think this is a transition time for MS and so we should wait a few days to see what happens.
