The NFL game is being moved to make room for 60 Minutes. This<br>
particular case will probably resolve itself when 60 Minutes gets a<br>
non-generic programid in a mythfilldatabase update later.</blockquote><div><br>Thanks for your response!<br><br>But I'm confused why you'd bring up 60 Minutes. (Other than perhaps sharing my minor annoyance with how CBS has always handled it, lol.) The preceding game starts on time, 60 Minutes isn't my priority, and my myth schedule handles CBS games and 60 Minutes just fine -- and also, it's NBC's Sunday evening game I'm having trouble with anyway. Nothing to do with CBS or 60 Minutes here.<br>

It would also resolve itself immediately if you used common callsigns for<br>
channels on both sources as is recommended. The way you have it now,<br>
MythTV will try to record any generic programs from both sources.<br></blockquote><div><br>That's fantastic, I would love to know that recommendation and how to implement it! I must have missed it in all these years -- where is it documented?<br>
<br>I think you're actually very much on the right track there, and I'm appreciative of that -- handling programs from both sources is precisely the "nut" here, and I certainly want to do it the "right" way, if there is one!<br>

</div>Thanks you. That is always helpful in cases like this.<br></blockquote><div><br>You're welcome! :) I'm learning, and eager to be helpful, especially when I'm asking for helpfulness myself! :)<br></div>

<br>
</div>It's currently only in the source code. Perhaps someone would like to<br>
add a page to the wiki.<br></blockquote><div><br>Doh! I was about to do so, and even went as far as finding the definitions in libs/libmyth/{programtypes,recordingtypes}.cpp (which was educational anyway), and then discovered it's already all in there at <a href="http://www.mythtv.com/wiki/Myth_Backend">http://www.mythtv.com/wiki/Myth_Backend</a> -- I don't know why didn't find it before. Anyway, I added a blurb in that section about its relevance to --testsched and -v schedule.<br>
<br>So... what's the right (recommended) way to set up (mostly) identical feeds from SD/HD network affiliates so I can get the desired results? I'd be happy to write that up too if I can learn what's right.<br>
<br>Thanks again,<br>EW<br>
