Help with adding new channels

#1

Post by tdarlington3 » Thu Jan 09, 2020 12:30 am

I determined that WMC was using a low definition channel to record one of my programs.
WMC did not show the HD version of the channel.
I ran the 2 hour channel update on my SiliconDust HDHomeRun Prime.
Got the EPG123 program to show the channel I wanted with the network info and ran "Save and Execute".
WMC still no longer shows the channel.
EPG123 Client shows the channel number in the left pane but not the Network info.
Channel is not shown at all in the right pane.
How do I get WMC and the EPG123 Client program to use my new channel ????
Thanks !!!

I believe this means that your lineup doesn't have the channel, that would need to be corrected by contacting Schedules Direct.

In the mean time you can probably attach the SD listings to the HD channel using these instructions.

When I log into Schedules Direct it shows the channel I am having trouble with in the lineup I am using.

The steps in the client program worked.
I will rebuild in EPG123 tomorrow since WMC is recording currently.

Just rebuilt and WMC now sees the new channel !!!

Thank You.
