[mythtv-users] What decides channel order?

2006-01-21 Thread Dag Nygren

Me again,

noticed that the channel order in EPG has changed
for me.

In the big Guide ableu it is OK and in mythweb also,
but when checking what is on in another channel
during LiveTV, the sequence is different and not
accroding to channel numbers as I would like.

Is there a setting somewhere (Tried the one in Mythsetup
with no success) ?

In frontend settings on page General (basic):

Channel ordering
- channel number (numeric)
- channel number (alpha)
- database order
- channel name
- ATSC channel

Yep, have seen that and changed it. Doesn't help though.
It will change the order in the big program guide, but not
the order of up and down in the short form guide during LiveTV.

Thanks for the advice anyway.

The problem I have, and I searched for an answer (and asked a month
ago) was why do my ATSC channels seem to be picked randomly when going
up and down? For instance, my channel numbers are:

2-1
4-1
4-2
5-1
7-1
9-1
9-2
9-3
9-4
9-5
11-1
11-2

etc.

When pressing up-arrow from 7-1, sometimes I get 9-4, sometimes 9-1.
When pressing down-arrow from 11-1 I mostly get 9-1.
Furthermore, I can never get the next subchannel of it's main channel.
For instance going from 4-1 I can never get 4-2. Or going from 9-1 I
can never to 9-2.

My channels are not random, but always stays the same.
But even if I chose numerical order going down from channel
3 gives me 3,2,15(!),1.

Very strange!

So, the question you're asking is what decides the browse order.

Are you getting a message in the logs like:

Your channel ordering method channel number (numeric)
will not work with channels like: channum
Consider switching to order by database order
or channel number (alpha) in the general
settings section of the frontend setup
Switched to channelorder order.

Random is simply a pattern you've yet to discern. ;)

maybe you are really in database order. Which table is used for
changing channels? The "channel" table?
If so, you could look in there and see if indeed the order is 3,2,15,1

Sorry, nothing in the logs.

But I also dicovered the randomness that  Brad talked about:
In my case it isn't random, but:
It works as expected the first tim I browse up/down, but after
that the ordering will change; Consistently though: It will
always be the same wrong order after that.

Thanks Brad, but chacked and no. Even the order in the database is 1,2,3.
