Mark,

I'll apologize for "butting in" in this thread, but since I've started
fiddling with the same thing here, thought my question to you should go
here.

Problem:  Channels in TX42822.CHN file not marked with "*" still showing up
in output

Here's what I've done so far:

1.  Found my "lineup" for AT&T cable to be TX42822.
2.  I constructed a TX42822.CHN file and prefaced the channels I want to
track with a "*" as required

However, I still keep getting unwanted channels in my final output.  I'm
thinking TVL1 may want a certain amount of space or spaces, between the
channel number and the station ID.  I started out with 2 spaces and just
went back, substituing a TAB.  Nothing seems to work..

What is the spacing requirement, or is there one, or since TX42822 lists
both 2 and 3 digit channel numbers (it is for digital cable tv) is there
another problem?

I can send you the TX42822.chn file I constructed if needed/wanted.

BTW, the filtering works perfectly with TZ-C file included with ECS, so I'm
fairly sure the event stuff is working ok......

Suggestions of which way to start working?
