I'm not sure if the bars are generated at the SD end, or if they were added by the tv_grab_sd_json grabber. The bars are not in the raw data, but are a display artifact in the app/grabber. The SD data (typically) contains a location, a transport (i.e. cable, antenna, satellite), a name, and the actual lineup (which can be displayed in any order by the app). I believe most of that data starts from "upstream", and has varying degrees of helpfulness and accuracy. A name is just a name, and a rose by any other name... I always look at the information as a hint, rather than treat it as have any specific accuracy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Attend Shape: An AT&T Tech Expo July 15-16.
