PSIP & Guide data

[Todd Wiedemann]

I have a Panasonic TU-HDS20 receiver for HD. I think the only other board member that also has one is Steve Mann. Is it just me (well, my receiver) or is there no guide data for HD OTA stations in this area ??

I get guide info for the DirecTV side, but nothing else ...

Anyone ?

I have a Toshiba DST3000 and have never received any guide info.  When I select that feature, it says, "Local Programming".  That's it.  Am I right to assume that local OTA channels do not send guide info?  Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, John.

That's what I was wondering, if anyone was sending the data out at all ...

Perhaps one of our friends from the station would care to comment ...

Jim, Sean ?? :wave:

With my old DTC100 I never got much as far as info....usually on 10-? and on I always a program name but no description and on 4-1 usually just got regular schedule for the PSIP guide.  However on the new Sony I get everything...however I think most of it is actually coming from the satellite.  It will show 1-1 ect but no guide information....however it also shows 58-1 ect with the actual information and programming.  HOWEVER I only receive digital 58 on 1-1 not on 58-1...although the info's there it doesn't receive.  So I think my guess of the info coming from Directv is probably right and they don't know the redirect for 58 is actually 1-1.

The only stations that send out guild information are.

10-0 -10-5 With descriptions
12-1 With descriptions
22-1 all they list is event number

18-1 & 24-1 only list WCGV Digital for both stations.

If you are getting anything else it must be comming from your sat provider.
