LiveTV Guide in Roku

[Vitale4 15]

Need some help with how the LiveTV Guide Functions in Roku.  When I go to a channel, the guide does not show the shows in order of time and does not necessarily default to the current time.  For example:

 

It is currently 7:35pm

 

• I go to ROKU and Choose Guide under LiveTV.  
• The First Channel in my lineup is 460.  However the time starts at 3:30am-4:00am.
• The Next Channel is 462.  It shows 11:30pm-12:30am

 etc...

 

I am not sure why the guide does not start at 7:35pm.  If I go to the On Now option, the times seem to be correct.

 

How can I default my Guide to the current time?

 

Also - on a side note/question:  Will there be any chance to get the LiveTV Guide to look like the one when running via the Browser? 

 

Thanks

At the time that guide was built, that was the only way to do it with the framework provided by Roku. There are newer improvements now that will allow us to do it in a better way, which we hope to do in the near future.

Thanks for the feedback.  Do you have a resolution to my first part of the question?  When I go to a channel, the guide does not show the shows in order of time and does not necessarily default to the current time.

Yes I can see they're not sorting by startdate, which hasn't been an issue all this time because the data is usually sorted that way anyway. in any event, you can try it out using the zip installation:

Thanks.

I'll try to get it posted to the beta channel soon as well.

I will say that you all have done a great job on the ROKU app and even the native Emby with LiveTV feature.  Can't wait to see what the updated ROKU Guide will be in the future.

 

Keep up the good work.
