Given the number of updates and responses we’ve had on the guide and scheduling issues, we thought it best to set up a new thread with the proper title and resolution steps.
The Guide issue should be resolved. For anyone still seeing gaps or missing programming data, follow these steps.
Some users may still experience errors when attempting to schedule certain airings or series on specific channels. This can occur in two ways:
You are unable to schedule any airings or series on a given channel.
You can schedule most shows on a channel, but one or two specific shows on a given channel will not schedule.
If you’re experiencing either of these issues, please contact Tablo Support and include:
The channel name.
The show title(s) (if applicable).
Whether the problem occurs for all shows on the channel or only certain shows.
We apologize that it has taken so much time and effort to fix these problems.
I was reading from the “follow these steps” link and your “But Tech that cuts the contracts” ad popped up and wouldn’t.
Hard to read a document when there is an ad stuck over the top of it.
How long does it take for the technical support team to troubleshoot the Tablo once they ask you to put it in troubleshooting/remote access mode?
I ask because there has been more than 5 hours and still nothing, still flashing rapidly, I don’t feel like leaving it in that mode for much longer, thoughts? Thanks
I still cannot set a series recording on multiple channels and shows in the Houston area. I thought the big update last night was supposed to fix it? I guess not. I have submitted a support request, but if anyone else around Houston is wondering what channels…2,3,11,13,20,26.
I’m a long time Recast user who used to be happy with it but am currently fed up with that device not being able to reliably record recurring series much of the time. I purchased and successfully set up a brand new Tablo 4th generation device yesterday and it works fine for live television. I have good reception from my rooftop antenna and get about 117 channels in the South Florida area. But series recordings for most of the shows I want to record are simply unavailable. I went through the channel guide this week and made a list of many popular shows of different types to illustrate how for the majority of them I simply cannot schedule a series. The option just isn’t there to select series recording for the ones that are indicated with a No on the following list. Needless to say this is very disappointing. I’m well within the return period, so I figured I better ask for help or at least be told that the issue is being worked on. This is a major fail as it is.

I’m using the official Tablo app for Fire TV. The app cache has never been cleaned out because it hasn’t barely had time to exist yet. This is a new installation on an account set up less than 48 hours ago. Isn’t it supposed to work? If the service is borked at the moment that’s some kind of an explanation at least.
There is a massive thread about the issues with the guide whch this thread will join tomorrow morning. Please don’t start new threads about existing issues.
You came to Tablo just at the wrong time. There has been an ongoing problem with Tablo that started the end of July. It was very troublesome for some time (leaving a lot of angry users), however Tablo is getting it under control. My system is mostly back to normal and I am hopeful it will all settle down in the coming days.
I continue having issues getting CBS BIG Brother to record in Raleigh NC. I can record individual episodes but when I try to set for reoccurring I am getting Unknown Error unknown error [Retry] [Cencel]. I saw the post that most issues have been resolved and to DM with details but for the life me I can’t figure out how to DM Tablo.
What about Option 3: You cannot schedule most shows as a series recording. (The option is just absent.)
I compiled a long list of dozens of shows that got merged into this thread above. There has been no change to that list today. That list is just the tip of the iceberg. It’s not just a few shows that don’t show the series recording option, it’s surely in the hundreds of shows. My program guide is full, it’s just that most shows still don’t show the series recording option.
