Barring a technical failure, the sats have 5 or 10 years left. The spot beam sats are the oldest so local channels would probably go first, if DirecTV Is still in the satellite business then.

*MeToon is up in the satellite guide data on 295 in test tonight. D15@103ca Tpn 2, PID 0x1080

DirecTV will probably use whatever PSIP channel number WSVN chooses to use for their subchannel, assuming they reach a acarriage deal with DIRECTV. In other markets with two major networks are on subchannels of one transmitter, they assign them different PSIP numbers, without any subchannel...

Some of the Music Choice channels names are coming back.

The Music channels are obviously a guide data issue. I just tuned to a couple of the channels that I know are in my Entertainment package (864 and 866 for instance) and they are carrying what they have always carried, despite the guide. This Guide data comes from the Slow APG data which...

You were correct. I updated the file attachment in Doctor J's post above.

Oh! It's Wednesday again! I will look into what happened with Doctor J's data and analysis this morning.

Our present Datadigester team has enough work in keeping this satellite transponder map going, in addition to managing the Cuttting Edge Forum. If someone else wants to provide a similar service for the DirecTV Stream side, that would be great.

upcoming WNBA games on both my local ION channel and #05-1 and 305-2 are now shown shown in Sports Central under Basketball, towards the end of the list.

The application for renewal of its license is for 5 years, until August 23, 2030. The application states that it will have enough fuel until 2035, but the FCC wants renewals in 5 year increments, according to the application.

I overlooked that there are 15 Fast APG PIDs (SCIDs) on TPN 5 for 15 local markets . They are probably not going to convert that TPN to HD. The transponder has been on and off this morning. When up, It has a solid DSS modulated multiplexed digital signal, but there are no audio or video...

101 TPN 5 has been cleared of any channels in the Guide. I checked the transponder. There iare no Audio or video streams there this morning, only the normal slow APG data that is on all Ku band SD transponders. Something is about to be changed. Perhaps converting it to A3 modulation and HD...

OK, I was wrong. I am too used to the Gemini client. On a HR44 or HR54 the PIP option is on the channel banner brought up by the INFO button. The various position options for the PIP picture are all "ON" buttons. So you can select where you want it when you turn it on, or if it is on, you...

It might help to get a time machine. I'm not sure where you found the PIP option in recent Genie software. What version of software is your HR44 running? Stuart Sweet wrote a blog about PIP a couple of years ago. You can read it by clicking on THROWBACK THURSDAY: When picture-in-picture...

I looked into it. I can't create content in Excel (Microsoft 365) that uses Eurostile, because it it is not an available font in a fresh Windows 11 and Microsoft 365 install. I don't add extra fonts to my system installs. It's the information that is important, not the font.

That's because It was tun on a different system. Gary was unavailable on Wednesday, so I ran his Excel software on my PC. I'm not sure why our default fonts are different.

Weekly Analysis for mar 12, 2025:

That hasn't shown up in the satellite APG data as of tonight (Friday).

If Stuart is correct, and he probably is, you don't need to change the C61. I am just going from memory. I replaced my C61K with a Gemini two years ago. All of my RC65 remotes have been put in the electronic recycling bin. There a combination of buttons to reset the remote to defaults...

I believe he C61 uses the "peanut remote" (RC71-RC73). The RF on those is different than he old RC66. You have to set the C61 and the RC66 to use IR.

While the CCID may be used by the apps, signal saver, and streaming, the CCID existed before any of those things.

I suspect they are used to configure your receiver as to what channels you are authorized for. We have not found anything in the APG records that links an individual channel to a package. And some LIL channels are only available in some narrow geographic areas. So they have to have a way to...

They conceivably could go back to before DIRECTV implemented their Advanced Program Guide (APG) structure.
