What parts in what I wrote did you find obvious?
Extra Channels
Channels also adds in many free live TV streams that are available on the internet. We throw these in to get our fans as much content as possible.
Right. So why did you mention your provider, Philo? It has no relevance to this guide issue.
And since there is no guide data available, what is your expectation exactly for this channel's EPG?
Keep in mind that other people who may read this thread might learn something from it, even if things may seem obvious to you.
Not much better

But it matches the schedule for Global News - National from the LIVE TV menu tab here https://watch.globaltv.com/

Nice find! I didn't see it. That's probably the best you're going to get.

Now this is something that needs to be added by fancy bits to the TVE lineup. I am guessing the next prerelease will have a fix? @tmm1
All channels have been geo-fenced and are available only in Canada now ...
True for the feeds from this website https://watch.globaltv.com/ , but the feed that Channels gets (6902) and https://globalnews.ca/live/national/ still work.
See original request Addition: Global News TV
I disabled the feed from TVE and put a local feed from ..... Montreal in a custom M3U on the same channel and set the provider to OTA in zip code .... H3H1J2 in Canada.
Not sure what that accomplishes?
GlobalTV channels https://www.globaltv.com/schedule/ are different than GlobalNews channels.
Unless you're using the GlobalTV Montreal feed, you won't be getting these upcoming airings tonight
60 Minutes- This Ancient Atrocity; Lithium Valley; James Nachtwey
The Equalizer - Love Hurts
The Blacklist - The Man in the Hat
NCIS: Los Angeles - The Reckoning
Canada has two programs with Global in name? Isn't that a bit pretentious?

This was fixed in one of the prereleases. I just updated to 2023.05.10.0013 and noticed the station id has been updated for the channel, so did a redownload guide for my TVE source.
By searching for gracenote station id's using the search term "global news" (including the double quotes)
http://127.0.0.1:8089/tms/stations/"global%20news"
The channel-id/callSign "CAGNEWS" and the tvc-guide-stationid "114494" are in the returned search results.
Thank you!!!!!
One more thing please. Trying to obtain CBS Sports HQ guide for 6765 in an M3U. Cannot find it using this method.
Also tried "CBSSPHQ" as the channel-id and not working.
Recommendations please?
You can use anything unique for the channel-id. "CBSSPHQ"
The gracenote station id is what gets you the guide data and station logo.
Channels DVR TVE 6765 uses tvc-guide-stationid "108919"
Not very good guide info though
@chDVRuser That is exactly what I am looking for. Trying to figure out how you figured out 108919 as I could find a search string that would pop that up. Can you assist as I am trying to find TCMP last but want to learn this process rather than relying on others please. Thank you for your awesome assistance.
To see the stationId for existing sources, like TVE, use this API endpoint /devices/ANY/channels
For TCM West EPG, see TCM West guide data - #13 by chDVRuser
