Canada - V6J1Y1

Satellite

Canada (West), Bell ExpressVu (Digital)

Version: 2672285312

Headend: 28528220  

HeadendId: 0008999X

Channels:

819 - WGBHDT

824 - KCTSDT

These are listed as PBSHE and PBSHW (PBS High Def East and West) on the Expressvu satellite guide display on my set top box.

The media center listings have shows that do not coincide with the real listings for these 2 channels.

Example: Feb 19, 11am: Both channels are really playing "HD - History Detectives".

The Media center lists 819 as "Word World" and 824 as "Sesame Street".

All other times are wrong as well for these 2 channels. 

 

 

Hi jdg70

I am investigating your issue and will reply when information becomes available.

Thanks

Hi, I found 2 more channels that are incorrect:

811 - RUSH

812 - EQUATOR

These are 811 - RUSH and 812 - EQATR on my satellite STB, but the shows are different (at all times)

Example: 2pm today:

811 Rush - "Metro BMX Jam" should be "HD- Grr TV"

812 EQUATOR - "Journeys of the Heart: Peru" should be "HD- Heavenly Maidens Dance Again"

 

 

 

Hi jdg70

I downloaded the guide for your area and the channels listed the correct call signs for the channels you have listed.  As for the guide information being incorrect do you know of a web site that I can use for a reference for the miss matching guide information?

Thanks

Hi,

Yes, the channel numbers are correct, but the schedule is not.

For 811 - RUSH  and 812 EQUATOR, the correct listings are here (in eastern time):

http://www.hifihdtv.ca/schedule.php

They are also correct on msn.ca for ExpressVu Satellite West Coast.

For 819 - PBS HD East  and 824 - PBS HD West, the correct listings are on the bell.ca web site (the satellite provider): on the "Whats on tonight" grid listings.  You can select time zone at the top.

Any news?

The 2 PBSs seem to have been corrected, but RUSH and EQUATOR are still incorrect.

Sorry for the delay jdg70

You issue is being investigated.  I will let you know when I get a response.

A month later but RUSH and EQUATOR are still incorrect.

 

 

Another month and 811 RUSH, and 812 EQUATOR still have the wrong listings.   This is very painful when trying to record things.   The correct canadian schedules are still here:

Zap2it had no problems adding TLCHD yesterday.  Why can't it get these 2 right?

Sorry about that jdg70 I was told this had been corrected.  I will send this to the content provider again.

Thanks.  811 and 812 seem to have finally been corrected.

They are now RUSHC and EQUATRC,  the C indicating Canadian listings I presume.

However 810 OASISC does not have the correct listings even though it has the "C".  They are sort of close, with many of the right program names, but the wrong program descriptions.

Example: Wed June 11, 2pm PST:  Guardians of nature - French Gyuana

But it should be: Guardians of nature - La Loire-Atlantique

3pm: Wild Secrets - The Snare Islands

But it should be: Wild Secrets - Lion: Mane Secrets

And on and on for all the other programs.

 

The correct info is on http://www.hifihdtv.ca/

The info is also correct on tvguide.sympatico.msn.ca

 

Can something be done? Thanks.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hi jdg70

Come on it was like pulling teeth just to getting RUSH and EQUAT working for you...............  I will do my best but don't bet your lunch money on a quick turn around.

It looks to be mostly correct now, maybe they fixed it by themselves.

This issue can be closed now. Thanks.
