Update to Updates Received/Not Received 6/8/17 :: Spectrum :: Albany, NY :: Zip Code 12203

No change as to the missing episodes from 5/25 and 6/1, but they did update the On Demand Portal side, so whatever episodes we do have are now also on that side of the house as well.

They are working on this, right? [sigh]

Thanks!

A thought occurred to me about

so I took a quick look on my system and then did a little Googling. While we’ve already established there’s serious mismatches between my TWC setup and yours, here’s what I think might have happened–see if it makes sense to you: on my system, a lot of those channel numbers in the 1200+ range are used to carry the local over-the-air channels. So I’ve got duplicates of the local ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, CW, PBS, etc. channels, plus all their extra over-the-air sub-channels created when they switched to digital broadcasting. And to fill up these new channels with programming, the local affiliates have contracted with various syndicated programming providers, who give them specialized lineups of mainly old shows. (As opposed to the manly old shows of Grit.) So I’ve got something like ten channels of stuff like Laff, GetTV, Decades, Antenna and–my favorites–Heroes&Icons and CometTV. Like you, at one point I had GritTV…and now I don’t. But if my hypothesis is correct, that’s not because TWC changed their lineup and dropped the Grit network, but because my local TV channel here changed their format for that subchannel and decided to go with some other syndicated packager (my best guess is they swapped Grit for Heroes&Icons, but I really wasn’t paying much attention to what was going on up in the 1200’s apart for some of the extra PBS stuff, so I’m just not sure). Thus TWC’s lineup remained the same–they just kept on carrying the local network affiliates’ extra digital channels,. (Though I have the impression this recently went from three apiece to four apiece for some of them–definitely for PBS.) The analogy would be the way TWC’s lineup isn’t really changing when NBC or CBS or the Weather Channel add or drop shows from their schedules.
Might this be the explanation?

Been awhile since I’ve done this.

Same deal as the other TWC/Spectrum people, only this time I noticed that Failed Knight Ep. 11 has disappeared before 12 and 9, as have some others.

The people were disheartened, and did cry out. For the fields would not yield their crops, nor the trees their fruit, and as for the missing episodes, no man could say where or why they tarried. Nor any woman, either. Nor child. Nor parrot, Norwegian Blue or otherwise.

Maybe a myna bird?

No change.

Thanks!

I’m a little confused here.

You say you have the “same deal” as the other Spectrum/TWC users, but that Chivalry, Ep 11, has disappeared.

All other users report that they didn’t get any of the June 1 update, which includes Chivalry, Ep 11. At you saying that you did receive the June 1 update and that some of it has disappeared?

Could you please elaborate on this for me please?

Apologies.

It is possible I’m not remembering correctly but I swear I saw episodes 9, 11, and 12 on the list before, but now there is no 11. I may have confused it with something else.

All right, Thank you @Duneczan

Given all that you do and all that you put up with from us (okay, from me), not to mention everybody on the other side of things, no apologies needed.

And if they do send over that mynah, I’m sure you’ll tell us what it says.

Thank you for all your efforts, week in, week out, Milady.

Updates Received/Not Received 6/14/17 :: Spectrum :: Albany, NY :: Zip Code 12203

The short version:

Once again, all but two shows have arrived, on both Cutting Edge and On Demand, but it’s two different shows this time: Undefeated Bahamut #7 and Tsuritama #10; we also got an unscheduled Patlabor Movie WXIIII. No sign of any of the previously missing episodes. This is getting grim…

The long version:

Received:

Bakuon 10

Matoi the Sacred Slayer 3

Mysterious Girlfriend X 11

Nurse Witch Komugi R 6

Nyan Koi 10

The Perfect Insider 1

Phantasy Star Online 9

Tanaka-kun Is Always Listless 11 (then how come he’s listed here?)

Trinity Seven 8

Missing in Action:

Tsuritama 10

Undefeated Bahamut Chronicle 7

Still Missing from 6/1/17:

Everything

Still Missing from 5/25/17:

Azumanga Daioh 24

Bakuon 7

Chivalry of a Failed Knight 10

Appearing Incongruously:

Patlabor WXIII

Remaining Incongruously:

AoharuxMachinegun 6

Notes:

  1. Two name changes:

Nyan Koi #10 => “Nyan Koi 10” (they dropped the the “!” and went back to the first version)

Phantasy Star Online #9 => “Phantasy Online 2 09” (they added the “2”)

Notice that these just happen to be the two series that were missing episodes last week. I doubt that’s a mere coincidence…

(1) With only 10 shows this week, the schedule seems awfully slim…

(2) Okay, so I’m still stubbornly refusing to watch the climactic episode of Chivalry, holding out for the missing episodes, and now Undefeated Bahamut is taking a bath. So there’s an open slot for a harem show in my schedule. Guess that means it’s Trinity Seven’s turn, and I’d better catch episode #4 before it goes away. I expect I’ll console myself with another irrelevant programming note next week…

Thanks!

Same as what Jababbi has and doesn’t have. This sucks since my alarm clocks go off at five thirty in the morning and I have nothing to watch without my daily two hours of anime. I hate when it is nice out and my cats, I mean my alarm clocks go off too early

DirecTV Fairfield, CA 94534

Some time between the morning of June 14 and 3:00 AM June 15, the Anime Network VOD channel 1889 disappeared from the channel listings.

Shows continue to show up if you do a general search on a specific title, but none of the titles appear in the channel 1000 DirecTV OnDemand listings.

As of 09:30 EDT, dittos on previous DTV report. Content download is in progress but haven’t tried to watch yet, but so far, this appears to be an issue with DTV rather than TAN, so I guess I’ll go chirp at them for a while.

As for TAN, thanks for another clean week.

I have reported the incident to DTV/AT&T via chat at about 10:20 EDT as a possible nationwide issue. I’ve been asked to check the guide again at about 11:00 EDT to see if the channel has re-appeared. Was given a ticket number in case the problem persisted, and was given permission to post it here as a reference for others to use should they have similar issues today (and they probably should, as I suspect the agent did a reset on my individual box…). The ticket number is 1-93005452402.

Update 12:10 EDT: Initial steps taken by DTV/ATT unsuccessful. Issue escalated, no estimated time for resolution - said they’d call when they think it’s resolved.

Update 16:00 EDT: No changes.

Update 09:30 EDT, 06/16/2017: No changes to original issue. Owisecup’s work-around confirmed. Plus…
During that process, a 12th program appeared that wasn’t on TAN’s June DTV schedule. “Patlabor WXIII”. Wikipedia says it’s a movie. Thanks for the lagniappe, y’all.

Update 11:00 EDT, 06/17/2017: No changes to original issue. No contact from DTV/ATT. Binge-watched all shows that I follow (plus the extra Patlabor movie) with no issues, which proves that the programming is available once you know where to find it. Will next update when conditions warrant.

Final update 10:45 EDT, 06/19/2017: Channel 1889 has re-appeared on the DTV program guide, and is also accessible directly. All appears well on the DTV front. Thanks to all who helped resolve the issue, both at TAN and ATT/DTV.

Like everyone else, still having the same issues listed above. Nothing from two weeks ago still but everything else is fine, aside from the missing Tsuritama 10 and Bahamut 7.

Same problem in California (zip 94536). Did a full reset on my receiver, no change.
Something about a software upgrade, but version 0x256 was loaded 4/1.
