<div dir="ltr">Hi Stuart,<br><div><br>That was exactly what it was! I didn't realize that the backend pulled in the EIT data when there wasn't any active watching / recording taking place. I set the crawler to wait for 600 seconds of idle time and, sure enough, the auto tuning didn't start until the backend had been running for a little over 10 minutes. Thanks for the quick and helpful reply!<br>

</div>Have you configured it to use OTA Guide Data (aka EIT)?<br>
