Title: No data 9HD And 9Life
Post by: zoszos68 on November 26, 2015, 05:19:20 AM
I have scanned my pvr (Skippa)and there is no epg data for 9HD and 9Life.
I know you may not do an epg for 9Life but I assume 9HD will have epg data.

I know 9Hd epg data is the same as 9sd but on the Skippa there is no way to change the epg source.
I have made sure in my account that all the Nine channels are selected.

The SBS Food channel has epg data so I assume the Skippa should be ok to get 9HD data and maybe 9Life.

All these changes Nine is doing is good but making sure my programmes record is something I will have to keep an eye on.
Also Foxtel still has no guide for 9HD either yet and 9Life is locked but still shows the channel ok.

It looks to me that they still have GEM mapped to channel 90 - I have this issue on both my Skippa and Humax.

They need to confirm the specifications of the updated transmission before they could do the  remapping. I suspect Daniel is working on it now. They probably want to do it for all regions at same time to avoid confusion.

If you are in Melbourne you can blame my sleeping in ... I promised to check the setting for Daniel first thing (after breakfast of course).

Hi Guys the data for all of the new channels is in place and will be available as soon as the mappings are confirmed.

Thanks John for the update.

Any idea when this will happen, and do we need to do anything on our PVRs?

I suspect this will depend on which PVR/PVRs you have and if you are running TAPs on TMS Toppies.

I've been keeping an eye on the My Account/Guide Settings page of the IceTV website waiting for the new channels to appear there as being available for sending to recorder - will I need to adjust this or will it happen automatically and left to me to 'fine tune' later?

Thanks John oh and Ian I am in Melbourne.

Foxtel surprised me with all of Nines channels working but 9Life is showing as locked still but still has a guide but no logo and can view it and 9HD has no logo either.
Also the Food network is not on Foxtel as they decide what fta channels i can see via the fta tuner.
So much for fta tuners and choice.

Kevin

Edit I just checked my account settings and Nine is still on the old settings (9 and 91 which are staying the same anyway) but the Nine guide has never shown on 91 on my Skippa.
Also the same for the second Go and Gem they never have had a guide either.

My Foxtel (IQ3 on satellite) is showing and working for all Nine network channels - including correct new logos.

Is there any confirmation that Life will have EPG data via IceTV or is it still an infotainment channel and thus excluded.

I suspect one reason why SBS Food Network is included is that SBS provide the EPG data (as does ABC).

Hi Ian,

From what we can see 9Life is not a datacasting channel and will be supported, in fact the guide data is going in now and should be available in a couple of hours.

Hi Paul,

The new channels will show up shortly under the My Account page, with the default settings they will come down automatically in the next guide update after they are enabled. If you would prefer to set a specific channel (i.e. force recordings to happen on channel 90 instead of 9 for the 9 SD channel) then that will need to be adjusted on that page later.

I've adjusted all of my active PVRs and am now getting correct EPG data for the new Nine network channels. I'll take a look at the My Accounts later, but all seems good where it matters.

Well done IceTV!!

As an update, the following regions are all fully online:

Sydney
Melbourne

We are missing some channel mapping information (DVB Triplets, which would affect new Beyonwiz T-Series units and SKIPPA's) in the following regions:

Adelaide
Brisbane
Perth
Gold Coast
Darwin

For these regions we need to confirm the DVB triplet information for channel 9 (on LCN 91), 9Gem (on LCN 92), 9Go (on LCN 93) and 9Life (on LCN 94). This will only affect the Beyonwiz T-Series PVR's and SKIPPA's as these PVR's do not use LCN's for channel mapping but use the DVB Triplet Information. Any assistance from users in these regions would be greatly helpful, please send me a message via the forum if you can help.

The overflow channels in regions areas are almost complete and will be done shortly.

I'm in Adelaide and have a Beyonwiz T4 with no EPG data for Channel 9.

Let me know what you need and where to find it and I will forward the info.

My Beyonwiz automatically updated to add 9GEM, 9LIFE and SBS Food Network but the EPG did not populate these channels. I had to manually clear the EPG cache in the setup menu before it would show any info for 9gem, 9life and sbs food network.

What do I need to do for the guide data to load on my Humax & Skippa? I can see both devices have downloaded EPG data in the last 10mins or so but 9HD (90) isn't being populated. I'm in Sydney FWIW.
Title: Re: No data 9HD And 9Life
Post by: kazz on November 26, 2015, 06:50:49 PM
I did a rescan on my Beyonwiz T3 then cleared the guide data but I'm having an issue with channel numbers.  I use a harmony remote and have all the channels mapped as favourites on the remote, it was working fine until the rescan and now if I press a mapped channel it comes up with the wrong channel on the T3 eg: press 7 and I get ABC News 24. I'm on the Melbourne guide.

Edit: Someone had the same issue over on the BW forum and did a factory reset on their T3, worked for me as well.

We haven't seen any announcements from Win as to what their plans are as yet, so its only regions that get Nine directly will get the new channels for now.

Am I the only one with "image" listed where the channel logo should be for the 2 new channels?

Hi hoadie,

No, you are not the only one.

I am working on the images now and they should be online shortly, it will take a few hours though before they are re-cached by the SKIPPA.

I've just noticed something similar. Timers that were set for GEM (ie channel 90) are now recording on 9HD (the new channel 90). It looks like we need to resend/update the various channel nine recordings.

Oh, this is just sooo confusing for my old brain!  Earlier today, I spent ages trying to figure out how to rescan the T4 and couldn't.  Now I had a better look, seem you're right, it did automatically update itself, except the channel with the 9GEM logo is actually a shopping channel and 9GEM has no logo at all  ???

Anyway, I have now just spent half an hour trying to figure out how to clear the cache, but couldn't find it.  I did look in Setup...  Could you give more info please?

As  Pauline Hanson would say, please eplain :-(  Things are getting worse.  Just went to my account in IceTV  and discovered that the community channel has been disabled.  So, I re-enabled it.  It just had (yet another) nervous breakdown and seemingly sent every program on Chnl 31 to be recorded.  So, after having spend most of this week deleting all hundred of timers set because of my stupidity, I now have to manually delete more timers.  Well I deleted them all till tomorrow night, here is hoping that the rest will somehow delete themselves, once I figure out what to do.

I haven't even had a look to see what exactly the T4 has or hasn't recorded - going to bed now  :'(

I haven't  even looked at Windows Media Player yet!

I  have to admit that I had this 9 change all wrong.  I presumed that the present 9 will stay as is, and unless I am anxious to get HD and the new channels, I can take my time rescanning and changing over to the new channels, so I wasn't particularly worried about it.  Wasn't expecting this confusion :-[

As the TF7100HDPVRt (NOT the Plus) only has a MPEG2 capable tuner it will not be able to get 9HD. Mine would not get racing.com which is also MPEG4. The 91 you are seeing is a re-mapping of 9 (like 21 being a remap of 2 and 1 being a remap of 12, or it could be the other way around).

I started to panic yesterday  :-[ - thought I may have given the wrong information to Daniel for 9Life. My SKIPPA is refusing to show any EPG data for LCN 94. Rescan and rebooting did not fix it. However, as the T2 has 9Life it must be something in my SKIPPA settings that is causing the problem.

Title: Re: No data 9HD And 9Life
Post by: TimC on November 27, 2015, 05:25:04 PM
I finally bit the bullet and did a factory reset and had success.  The only issue I have now is that For channel 93 (Go) there is no EPG, but there is one for channel 99 (also Go).

Is this the same for everyone?

I was surprised that Channel 99 was still there after the rescan.

While there is a channel 99, I don't think there will be a problem. However if Nine decides to stop broadcasting both channels, there may be. 

Any idea what Nine intends to do?
Title: Re: No data 9HD And 9Life

Though if 99 goes off air we'd remove LCN 99 from affected accounts and set the LCN for 9Go! to 93 (if it's not already set to 'All').

  • But if you had Go! set to 99 it would still be set to 99, so you might want to change it to 93, here https://www.icetv.com.au/cgi-bin/webmembers.cgi

I checked and found that it was set to All.

I tried setting it to 93 as you suggested and the data for 99 disappeared but the EPG was still missing from 93 i.e. no "Go" data at all.

I tried rescanning the channels and the result was the same.

I have now put it back to All and the EPG for 99 has returned but still no 93 EPG data

I notice you have Toppy 24XX machines. Have you cleared the EPG cache? - Menu/Settings/IceTV red button. I didn't need to do this on my 2400, but it may help.

I had the problem on the iPhone app and had to reset my settings within the app so it would reload the data. After that 9HD was renamed to 9HD Melbourne

Yes it is the HD version. Thanks for the explanation Ian, you just saved me from doing a factory reset for the third time to see if I could get this channel. ;D

Wouldn't it have been nice of Channel 9 to explain this, while busily spruiking to people how simple it all is

It's a fine line they have to tread. If the tuner is capable, for the most part, the process is simple. For situations like some Panasonic TVs, with a 'hidden' option in the tuning menu, it would make for a complex explanation.
Agree, a reference to MPEG-4 capability would have been nice for some. But, for the majority, it would have been heard as technobabble. At least they could have emphasised that some TVs wouldn't be compatible with the new channel.

I am still not receiving an EPG for Channel 93 (Go) Currently I have given up and disabled the LCN.  That at least allows me to set timers for Channel 99 (also Go).

However I'm not sure if Nine intends to leave 99 there.

I have this problem on all my PVRs i.e. Skippa, Toppy 2400 and Toppy 2460.

Is this unique to me or are others having the same issue?

I am getting 9Go on both LCN on my Toppys (2400 + 7100+) and My SKIPPA. However, on the SKIPPA I am not getting 9Live at all. I am located in Melbourne, so the region may be a consideration.

Hi,

IceTV shows lovely shows for 9Life Darwin, however all they're actually showing up here at the moment is boring infomercials. Do you have any info when that might change? And can you adjust the EPG?

9HD's content is all fine, ie matches the IceTV program guide.

Cheers

What you seeing onscreen sounds like eXtra, the shopping channel, which used to be on 94 where 9Life is now.

Try deleting all network nine channels and rescanning.

Or delete all channels and rescan the lot then resend your recordings:

Thank you for your suggestions Dave. Deleting/rescan on my Win7 Media Centre did not make any difference. So I connected my Samsung digital TV and did a full re-scan on it for free to air channels. And among all the others, it lists these Channel 9 related channels for Darwin:

009 Ch 9
090 9HD
092 9GEM
094 Extra
099 9Go!

And channel 094 shows just the "Extra" shopping info. The life EPG also corresponds to "Extra". No sign of 9Life anywhere.

So I dug a bit deeper and had a look at the following TV Guides:

http://www.yourtv.com.au/guide/darwin/
http://www.freeview.com.au/tv-guide/?regionId=74
https://au.tv.yahoo.com/tv-guide/74/0/0/20/

None of them list 9Life for Darwin, yet all of them show "Extra".

So, maybe the adjustment needs to be made at the IceTV end? Unless you can point me to some secret channel number on which 9Life is broadcasting up here in Darwin?  ;)

eXtra is a shopping (infomercial) channel and IceTV does not provide a guide for a shopping channels.

For 9life, for now please set 9life to 'Disable' in the right-hand column in your account here:
