[QUOTE="d2globalinc, post: 249054, member: 69532"] I have a dual setup with 1 analog and 1 ATSC QAM - I had to actually set the names of my channels to the NAME that schedules direct uses (ie. XYZTDT) - etc. - When it would lookup information using channel numbers it would use the QAM channel # it was detected on - (like 105 for example) - but the schedules direct digital listing for my cable provider would have that same channel as (708) - the plug in would default and map the channel to the cable providers 105 channel number :S - which of course would give me the wrong channel information.. SOoo i forced the mapping using the channel names and all is well now.. Analog channels would map without any problems because they would use the same # that the cable provider uses.. Just an FYI - not sure how to resolve this without doing forced mapping but thought i would let everyone know - that was something i struggled with for a few days :P - Oh a few other points - I also unchecked - "Rename Existing Channels and logos to new name format" because once doing that it would again default back to using the QAM channel # and therefor map to the wrong channel info from schedules direct. - I also only check "Re-map channels when linup change detected" , and "Add Additional Rating, air date, etc to the show description" - and then of course "Force Guide Update on next TVService statup" when i want to do so.. - Thanks D2G [/QUOTE]
