I've browsed the mptvdb database and couldn't find it. I'm looking for a column that stores just the callsign in the database.

Thanks in advance!

    Hello and welcome! :)

    We don't store anything called a "callsign".
    If you're wanting to mess with channel names then take a look at the Channels table displayName column.

    Regards,

    Got it. Thanks! I think of a callsign to be something like "FOODP" (Food Network on my cable provider). I'll check out displayName.

    I've been using Media Center for a while and they call it a callsign.

    An unrelated question (I can start a new thread if desired), but is there any place in the database that stores whether the channel is broadcast in high definition and whether it's a network affiliate? I believe Media Center stores the HD channel definition as a Boolean of "isHD" in their database.
