What the heck happened to my Season Passes?
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: Jagman_sl

Around 7:15 tonight while watching an already TiVoed show I noticed that my TiVo wasn't recording Futurama like it should. I quickly hit the Live TV button and found that not only was Futurama on, but that the Guide Data had the correct information for the episode.

I jumped to my To Do list and noticed that all of my Season Passes for network shows were gone! All my Season Passes for shows that air on Satellite channels are still there, but anything on ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, WB or UPN are gone!

I then checked my Season Pass Manager and all my SPs are there, but show "No Upcoming Episodes". However, if I browse to the day and time, there is Guide Data for all of the shows that I have SPs for!

I do have Dish Network, and received the massive local channel update today, but my market isn't carried by Dish yet, so my locals shouldn't have been affected. But I'm fairly confident this update has something to do with my problem.

Has anybody else noticed this?

did they move locals to new channels. that could be the problem I think season passes are channel specific.

Probably, the changes in the channels caused them to change name. However, This would cause all season passes to be deleted rather than becomming empty UNLESS the old names continue to exist as well.

Check the ch's you receive list and the names of the channels to be sure that they have not changed.

Next, you might try rerunning guided setup.

Also, force a rebuild of the ToDo list by moving a season pass either up or down.

If none of these work you will need to redo all your passes or, better in many cases, create an auto-record wish list.

One thing that I do, just in case something like this happens, is to have wish lists that get all the show I have season passes for. These are not auto-record lists in the cases where they get too much or where I want or need the ch specific nature of SPs.

If something happens to my SPs I can just go through the wish lists and recreate them fairly quickly.

Right now, I believe this is a problem due to long data processing times cause by TMS having over 500(?) channels in that one lineup.
