View Full Version : HELP: Strange guide data issue-shows in live, not in search

So I move my HDVR2 from one physical location in my home to another. As part of the move, it appears one of the sats wasn't feeding properly at first (that feeds locals/channels 1-99). Get it fixed and both tuners work, all channels display.

However, I go in to To Do and a bunch of stuff is missing. All my daily local news SPs, American Idol, all gone. History says reason is "no longer in the guide."

Go and search by name and sure enough, they aren't in the guide data. However, use "live TV guide" and the shows appear and I'm able to set recordings.

What gives? First noticed last night and thought the device maybe had to reindex or such, but still see the issue this a.m. Forced a call and rearranged SPs to no avail. All appropriate channels are checked in "channels I receive"

Any thoughts?

In the past...

When I have had this happen to my DTivos...
It ultimate was a bad hard drive (it developed a bad sector).

Give it another 24 hours for the unit to do it's housekeeping on it's own... and the indexes a chance to rebuild.

I assumed that posting here and in TC wouldn't be considered "cross posting" :p

Anyway, thanks for the info and sorry for the freakout. All appears well now after forced reset and the healing power of time. Just thought it was strange that most of the data was there and some wasn't...especially as it was all there prior to physically moving the unit.

Crossing fingers that there's no failure/pending failure either!
