Strange channel numbers

[cearl]

Hi

I'm setting up on a different PC but when the channel scan completes I get a mix of the expected (96 - 9Rush Adelaide) and weird (10012 - 7HD and 10014 - 10 HD).

Anyone know why this is and how to fix it?

Anyone know why this is

My best guess would be duplicated services.

and how to fix it?

Browse to your IceBox:  http://<icebox_ip>:9981

Go into: Configuration | Channel / EPG | Channels.

Edit the channels in question to have the LCNs that you prefer.

Or via the EPG choose the live channel on each offending one , one by one, and each should correct.

My best guess would be duplicated services.

Shouldn't they be reassigned to LCNs in the range 300-399?

@Peter, sometimes TVHeadend assigns incorrect LCN, invariable start at (about) 100. This is not due to picking up from multiple transmitters. I suspect the range you are referring to is when the service scan finds more than one transmitter for the same network. I know this can happen in Hobart and Canberra.

Easiest way to fix as Colin has said is just to watch at least one station within a network and the LCN's for all channels within a network will be updated automatically.

Thanks folks

Tuning into each of the misrepresented networks worked perfectly.
