I wrote a script to pull station ids from Channels to help match my m3u's with guide data. I noticed that for my ATSC 3.0 channels (ABC-NG for example), has the same station id as ABC-HD (and it matches with Schedules Direct).
Are / will ATSC 3.0 stations be handled differently or are ATSC 3.0 station ids the same as ATSC 1.0? I know FOODHD and FOOD have different station ids but are the same channel. Just curious if anyone knows about ATSC 3.0 station ids.
I think Channels determines HD vs SD via the guide data. If that's true, how will Channels determine NG if the station id is the same as HD?
