These “test” packages aren’t the regular shows and won’t be part of your package, they are merely sent to see if they arrive correctly. In other words, they’re sending them and have to wait for someone for DirecTV to let them know if they arrived in the correct way. This probably won’t be a quick process, unfortunately.

The initial shows are set up months in advance and the packages are sent to the Providers a few weeks ahead. I’m not talking about the VOD schedule here on AN, that’s done separately. It’s apparently a p.i.t.a. to contend with, and they’re looking at revamping it.

Both of these, apparently, require the appropriate person(s) to take the 15-30 seconds required to perform the task. Finding that person is the hard part (sorry if the cartoon violates any standards)…

@thboyd29 Oh man. You know how much that relates to me, being the tech manager at my store, and dealing with Comcast tech support?

(Of course, probably most of y’all have more computer know how than myself)

That comic is like looking in a mirror :joy:

Yup. I spent 35 years as a programmer/analyst/IT guy for a steel company. Worked directly with the users for most of that time. Management eventually put in a “help desk” to keep users from contacting us directly, intended to reduce interruptions in what we were “supposed” to be doing. Mostly didn’t work as they’d hoped…
Glad you liked it.

Yes, they changed the title when they dubbed it and apparently never went back and fixed the subtitled version. :frowning:

Nothing else really to report on for Xfinity. May your holiday be wonderful :blush:

There is something to be thankful for today.

  • Everything scheduled has arrived.
  • Nothing is backfilled.
  • Everything new is correctly listed as anime and episode number on the episode menu. After well over a year, this seems to be finally fixed. I can only hope it stays fixed.
  • I can't quite hand out awards yet, however. The episode detail page (what you get when clicking on the the episode in the episode menu) should show the episode title. It has been doing this with the mistitled episodes, but the new ones correctly titled on the episode menu do not show the title on the episode detail page.
  • The anime and number remain correct when the episode is downloaded.
  • The downloaded detail page is also missing the episode title. So the episode title now does not appear anywhere.
  • All in all, it's a big improvement. But y'all still need to add back the episode titles on the detail page.
  • Once again, there are no schedules listed under Providers
  • The worksheet is updated.

Finally, some progress. Thank you.

Updates Received/Not Received 11/22/18 :: Time Warner Cable :: Albany, NY :: Zip Code 12203

The short version:

All of the scheduled episodes have arrived.

The long version, which is also pretty short:

Received:

Familiar of Zero III 7 & 8

Living/Day After Tomorrow 5

Maid-Sama 11 & 12

Matoi 7

Princess Resurrection 15 & 16

Missing in Action:

None (well, none that aren’t expired, anyway)

Remaining Incongruously:

None

Notes:

(0) Not precisely relevant to AN, but still anime-related: just in case someone is trying to watch My Hero Academia on TWC/Spectrum’s Cutting Edge or On Demand…they’ve merged episodes #24 and #26 together on Cutting Edge–or episodes Season 2/#11 and Season 2/#13 if you go in via the On Demand Portal or by Search. On Cutting Edge, it looks like you’ve got #26 but no #24; on On Demand, it looks like you’ve got #11 but no #13. So whoever bundled the Adult Swim episodes clearly got the internal metadata crosswise, just like the AN bundles sometimes do. Be that as it may, in both cases, the two episodes really are there, just fused together, and my old untangling kludges from way back when still work and let you access both episodes.

I won’t bore you guys by re-posting the kludges for the umpteenth time…but if anybody needs them, give me a holler here in the forum and I will. Post them, that is–alas, my boring you will just kind of happen whether I post the kludges or not…

(1) Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

Thanks!
