[QUOTE="Danny Rego, post: 1168040, member: 139639"] The XYZ is what I can't figure out exactly. Here's an example of what I am trying to do. I have two hauppauge colossus cards that are working with my satellite set-top boxes, and I have two digital ATSC/OTA tuners. I want to set the OTA channels to be last in the guide, so I modified the channelNumber to be 1000+ for them...for example, 41.1 would become 1411. I also moved that to the appropriate sort position. At some point...I assume after the next guide update from SchedulesDirect, it "fixes" the channelNumber, and sort order to basically undo my changes. More importantly, I go through, and remove all of the satellite channels I don't want from the guide, and they start popping back into the guide...again...I have no idea how/why. So, I am afraid I don't know how to get to the meat of the cause. The only idea I have come up with so far is to write an SQL script/program that I can run every minute that can make sure the channels are setup the way I wish. (I just cloned the SchedulesDirect plugin from github, and started having a look at it...I am an experienced developer that hasn't done any sort of windows programming in 15 years...but I may take a stab at mofying the plugin to help with some of this, like an option to have the OTA channels not intermix with cable/satellite channels, etc) [/QUOTE]
