pvr.mythtv sched/channel lineup completely different then mythtv frontend - nomotivo - 2021-02-08 Hi ya - Kodi / mythtv newb here - Have recent install of mythtv backend / HDHomeRun Prime / Schedules Direct. The pvr.mythtv (ver 5.10.15) under Kodi shows shows channel numbers and schedules differently then the mythtv frontend. The mythtvfrontend and mythweb both show the correct information. I have restarted programs, systems and servers to see if perhaps there was a stale cache somewhere, but the behavior is consistent. I pasted an API call in my browser to see what was returned from the server, and the channel numbers/names appear correct (ie: myserver:6544/Guide/GetProgramGuide?StartChanId...) For example, the API call returns <ChannelInfo> <ChanId>40511</ChanId> <ChanNum>511</ChanNum> <CallSign>WBALDT</CallSign> <IconURL>/Guide/GetChannelIcon?ChanId=40511</IconURL> <ChannelName>WBALDT (WBAL-DT)</ChannelName> And mythtvfront & mythweb both display it properly as Channel 511 with correct schedule info. In Kodi, the schedule shows 511 as CineMAX HD, and WBALTV shows up as channel 292 <ChannelInfo> <ChanId>40920</ChanId> <ChanNum>920</ChanNum> <CallSign>MAXHD</CallSign> <IconURL>/Guide/GetChannelIcon?ChanId=40920</IconURL> <ChannelName>CineMAX HD</ChannelName> Looks like there are updates for the pvr addon, but I'm running Kodi from linux mint, which is based on Ubuntu 20. The Janbar PPA doesn't support Focal - nothing newer then Bionic. The backend server is Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with v31 mythtv backend via the mythbuntu ppa. Any tips, info, pointers, etc greatly appreciated! RE: pvr.mythtv sched/channel lineup completely different then mythtv frontend - nomotivo - 2021-02-09 SOLVED! I figured it out - Under Settings / PVR & Live TV, there is an option for "Use channel numbers from backend", but it's only visible under ADVANCED MODE. Apparently this defaults to off. I confirmed that in another installation.
