Question about Favorites and available channel list

[mgpaulus]

I have several different channel sources on my sage system (2 xfinity STBs for recording HBO/Showtime/EPIX/etc; 1 Roku using a Dish lineup with only some FrndlyTV channels enabled; 3 pipe/virtual tuners pointing to ChannelsDVR, but using my HDHomeRun Prime 3-CC (using xfinity CC); 3 pipe/virtual tuners pointing to ChannelsDVR using their TVE sources for Xfinity and FrndlyTV).
I finally have all of the channels mapped where I want, and I'm getting program data mostly.

The issue I have now is that specifically for channel BYUTV, I have 4 different channel numbers (180 (PrimeCC / TVE/ STBs) ; 1673 (SD from TVE); 9016 (FrndlyTV from TVE); 9403 (Roku from Dish lineup).

I have a Favorite setup to record any movie on several channels. One of them I'd like to set up is BYUTV, but,
I have channel 1673 selected. If I go down to the "others" list, I can see the 180 option. What I don't see is the 9016 nor the 9403 option.

Wondering if any one has any clue of why my 2 other channel instances aren't in the list? I've hit the "Refresh Channel List" button several times, and still No Bueno. I also can see other of my FrndlyTV channels for selecting (they are in the 9000 range), so it's not that. I can see channel 9015 and 9017, but 9016 is conspicuously absent.

Any reason that you are not setting all four BYUTV channels to the same logical channel number?

Probably because even though I’ve been a long time user, I’ve always been a set it and forget it kind of user, and apparently there are still many things to learn.

I’ll look into it, as that might solve one of my other problems, which is differing EP and MV ids from different EPG sources.

(Oh, and I find, that as the older I get, the more I'm a "forget it" than a "set it" kind of user)
