TV Guide On-Screen Problems
TV Guide On Screen features vary between products, but problems with the service have the same basic causes.
-
Missing Listings
-
The guide sometimes only fills in partially with some channels showing "No Listing" in the channel grid when the channels in question have just been turned on in the Channel Editor screen and TV Guide On Screen has not yet received its first listings transmission.
No Channel Grid
-
If the affected device cannot use the data in the TV Guide On Screen signal, the grid will not populate even though the guide screen may show the correct time.
-
No Guide
-
TV Guide on Screen stopped working over the air for TVs, VCRs and DVRs after the U.S. digital transition. Only devices with ATSC tuners and specific TV Guide On Screen software versions will work off of digital data when connected over the air.
