Duplicate channels

[ylafont]

Local Channels,

I’m using, 25Extreme (Great JOB Guys) on a Sony T60. I activated the local channels and they came up in the nine hundreds section of the guide the first time. After rebooting the system twice, the locals appeared in the 0-99 section with duplicated entries for the same channel. What I mean is, I have like 15 channels with the number 2( all CBS) and another 15 channels with the Number 4 (all NBC). The only difference is the call letter that is assigned to the channels.

I get something like this.

2NY
2CH
2LA
2AT and so on

4NY
4NY
4LA
4AT and so on.

I used the 900s.tcl script and since 25Extreme does not use the channels.dat or the mvchannles.tcl (That I know of). I’m uncertain what I should do the resolve this.

Does anyone

There are tons of other threads covering this topic. Search for mvchannels to see some of them.

nutshell:

stop 900s.tcl from running
reboot
download mvchannels.tcl 1.34 into /var/hack
./mvchannels.tcl reset
reboot
Edit channels.dat to contain ONLY the channels you are in the spot for.
./mvchannels reload
add the following line to rc.sysinit:
/var/hack/mvchannels.tcl -loop=0 -sdelay=4 -file=/var/hack/channels.dat > /dev/null &

That should take care of you.

If you have questions, ask away
