Program Guide Seems To Have Gone South

Starting on 7/28 at 8 pm, my program guide is largely populated with "No Data".

Before that, it's a-ok.

What is puzzling is that a few channels do have program names shown.

Then, on 7/30 at 8 pm it goes back to normal: 99% populated.

Bottom line, 7/28 at 8 pm through 7/30 at 8 pm missing most programs.

If it were all programs, I'd think it was me.

But just most? And returning on 8/30?

Philadelphia area, OTA.

Maybe something with the data supplier?

Also, now that it's past 7/30, many of the program listings I check are just plain wrong.

Am I the only one?

Philadelphia PA OTA.

Solution Found

FWIW, without knowing anything at all about the cause, I managed to get back in business after a *second* occurrance of the problem.

(the first occurrance seemed to mend itself - I wound up with a week of missing program guide info, but before/after it was complete)


This time about 99% of the program guide info was missing. Sporadic programs present here and there, but mostly nada.

What I did this time was:

Setup | Setup Video Sources | (select a video source) | Remove Source

I repeated that for each of my four video sources.

Then I did a:

Setup | Setup Video Sources | Add New Source for each of the four sources.

On the first one, I did a complete channel scan and enabled/disabled channels to taste.

On the succeeding three, I told setup to use the lineup from the first one.
(can't recall the exact menu/command sequence - but if you look carefully it's evident).

Now I have a completely-populated program guide.

My suspicion is something with my WSH box being flaky as the cause.
