No issues here in your nearby neighborhood. I remember @TabloTV saying there was an issue with a FAST or OTA channel that was causing a similar problem. I think the resolution was to remove the particular channel and rescan. No telling if this is the issue or what channel to remove. We only have a handful (<10) of the FAST channels enabled, and less than 1/2 of the OTA channels enabled.
That’s only a single-dog dare. I believe that it’s not working the way it should. But why would I want to update my Guide? It updated just fine overnight and I have no reason to muck up the gears.
According to the image I posted, it completed a little after 5:00 AM, so it took 3+ hours. So it appears the overnight has the same issue, it just happens while most are sleeping.
I just set up a new 4-tuner Tablo on Dec 23 for a family member here in Houston. Setup was smooth, except guide updates are taking about 30-60 minutes. I went through the channel list a few times helping them fine tune their channel lineup from 200+ (including FAST) down to about 25 mostly OTA. Each time the guide update was very slow, but eventually completed. So far after 2 days, no other issues with the new Tablo.
As an aside, they are 100% xFinity WiFi and the Tablo has been reliable so far on 4 different TVs (all Roku based). They are very happy with the device.
I would assume 2 things… It either already saw that it had current data downloaded and skipped. OR the Guide Server is messed up. BUT it downloaded 4 hours ago though. So it at least worked 4 hours ago. Also worked from the last outage till now.
That’s a SWAG guess. My gen 4 tablo had been unplugged for 4 days. When I saw that some FAST channels were removed I decided to install the new firmware and rescan. Rescan never completed. And the manual guide update which actually runs in the back ground on the tablo unit never completed.
But the over night gen 4 guide update did. Legacy manual guide update worked fine.
