I have an instance of XBMC running as extenders in many rooms of my house. I have broadband cable for internet however I do not subscribe to cable TV. My tuner is being used as QAM only, detecting free to air unencrypted channels off of my cable provider and I associate those local channels to the correct TVGuide listings using WMC. From this perspective, all is well although it is presented to XBMC disordered and very messy. For instance my channels are populated heavily disorganized (eg. channel 10, 7, 6 , radio1, radio 2, 5, MeTV, etc, etc). In the past, I have manually reordered the channel lineup on each XBMC instance to correct discrepancies which is very time consuming and tedious.
I reorganized my channels in WMCs "tasks/Guide/edit channels" so that they are listed in order by channel, eg. 5, 6 ,7 ,8 ,9 ,10, etc and below that I have all the detected Radio channels with the music icons... however, this never seems to export to XBMC cleanly. The channles remain disorganized and detected hd radio channels are always clumped in with the video channels. So while manually fixing this in each fresh instance today... I thought I would pose the question.
Am I missing something? I'd appreciate some guidance or maybe an explanation of why it doesn't work in my instance since its not standard.
