downloaded this on weekend however 8 channels were missing from the guide ?

Anyone else have this issue ?

Have you associated the data with the channels? It's near the edit channels option under guide settings (tasks>settings>tv>guide - something like that).

ok

i tried editing to move the channel to right place but:

channel 1 which is 10 HD and channel 12 show as 10 HD

So when i edit the stations is moves the guide to the last one i edit, and missing info to the other.

So what i am thinking is 1 is 10 HD, 12 is 10HD but another variant like 10HD SD ?

does anyone have a definitive mapping guide for all the channels state by state

Some are straight forward, other not.

Channel discovered Actual Channel Mapping in MCE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Channel 1 Ten HD Ten HD (SD)
Channel 9 Nine Digital Nine Digital
Channel 10 Ten Digital Ten Digital
Channel 12 Ten HD Ten HD
Channel 90 Nine HD Nine HD
etc etc

Your best bet is to eliminate the duplicated channels.

When DTV started, there were all sorts of options for channel numbers & they used their historic numbers for their SD channels & the multiple of 10 for their HD channels. Excpet for 10 as they already used '10' for their SD channel, so they used 12.

When they relaunched the HD channels late last year, 10 moved their HD channel to '1', but kept it duplicated at '12' for historic reasons.

Here's the list I use:
2
3
7
9
10
12
20
22
30
70
90

I don't bother with the extra SBS channel as it's a non-english news channel & I don't bother with the channel 7 extras as they are just duplicates of their SD channel. These extra channels (SBS & 7) might be used for something during the olympics though, so you might need to reactivate them then. ABC3 is an ABC pipe-dream - you can forget about that for a while.

Guide data will only associate with 1 channel at a time.
