Fraction of Channels in WMC Showing Up in Extender Guide
Posted: Tue Feb 11, 2020 4:28 pm
I have recently set up EPG123 and am very much enjoying using it (Thank you Gary!)
However I'm having a strange issue I've never encountered before. In the guide listing using WMC (Win 81. Pro) I see 291 channels, but on my extender (XBox 360) I only see 31 channels in the guide. I can still search all 291 channels on the extender using search. I can record those channels and watch them. If a movie is in the movie guide I can still find it for channels not showing in the guide listing and I have no problem watching those channels from the movie guide.
It's always the same 31 channels, but I can't really find a common denominator for the channels that show up. It does seem like a large percentage of the channels that show are channels that use copy protection; all my Starz Encore and ScreenPix show up. But some of my local station channels show as well while others don't.
Obviously I have no idea what is causing the issue so it might not even be an EPG123 issue, I have many more channels in my listing with EPG123 than I had on the old system. I did a search of old posts but couldn't find any with an issue like this, though it seems strange I would be the only person with this issue since I have a very standard vanilla setup.
Does anybody have an idea what may be causing so many channels to not show in the extender guide or any recommendations on how to troubleshoot/fix it? Thanks.
