Re: Spectrum Central Fl "No Guide Information Available" on ext digitial channels


It *should* allow you to keep using your HDHR3-CC's as long as Charter continues to support linear QAM in your location. However, Charter has deferred their start on phase 2 and 3 areas (for both good, and bad, reasons), and only phase 1 areas are being finished, and Charter has not shared details ...

Re: Spectrum Central Fl "No Guide Information Available" on ext digitial channels


Depends on the root cause, and there is little to no ability to check on the causes remotely (so they sometimes need boots in the home). TA's use a reverse band that is *extremely* noisy/lossy, and even relative minor residential cabling and/or plant issues can easily cause problems...

Re: Spectrum Central Fl "No Guide Information Available" on ext digitial channels

Update: Subsequent to Spectrum sending hits to my equipment, I have rebooted my tuners and TAs again.

I am currently rerunning Channel Detection and see that the tuners are now seeing more channels. It'll take an hour or so to complete, but it appears to have been resolved.

This whole process of ...

Spectrum Central Fl "No Guide Information Available" on ext digitial channels

Re: HDHR App bags to desktop when pressing B button

Well, that's weird.

I just checked it again and now it's working right. The grid closes when I press the button, as it should.
I swear this is what I was seeing at the time.

Same versions here and nothing has been updated.

Spurious event I guess.

Sorry

I hadn't actually gotten that far I was just trying to download from the repository. Kept failing, I gave up.

Which was as explicitly stated in the caveats. I can say with some confidence that those packages will not be signed, as you should have zero reason to trust the packager (I certainly don't). You could either accept unsigned packages, build your own packages (using the packaging repo as a guide if ...
