TVheadend setup with HDHR OTA EIT EPG

Added by Jim Abernathy almost 6 years ago

I'm looking at the correct way to setup TVHeadend with HDHomerun networked tuners with only EIT EPG data.

I know how to do this with XMLTV Schedules Direct, but I need to be able to use EIT only for a particular application.

I've enabled the HDHR tuner in the DVB adapter tab.

I've added a network for OTA USA Center channel in Network tab, and linked it back to the HDHR in the adapter tab.

I made sure the EIT OTA grabber was enabled.

With the log window open, I can see scans going on and in EPG configuration -> Channels tab shows the local channels, but the EPG guide doesn't ever show the schedules.

What am I missing??

Are you shure that ATSC use EIT?
Isn't use PSIP: ATSC Grabber

i'm not sure of the proper name, but I've always used EIT on Mythtv to get the EPG OTA, but didn't understand it.

However, I disabled the EIT DVB grabber and enabled the PSIP ATSC Grabber and rebooted and I eventually got a schedule guide.

Thanks,

No need to reboot just force it to scan
Configuration > Channel/EPG > EPG Grabber

There must be some delay built in. I first triggered the OTA grabbers, but nothing, then I rebooted. I guess there's just a delay.
