I've recently noticed a few duplicate channels in the channel list on my S3. For example, part of my channel list looks like this:
104 KOMODT
105 KINGDT
105 KINGDT
106 KONGDT
106 KONGDT
107 KIRODT
108 KCTSDT5
Also repeated are 115 (KINGDT2), 174 (ESPN2HD) and 664 (INHDCOM). There may well be others -- those are just the ones I saw during a quick visual scan through the guide. In all of the cases I tried, the channels are truly identical (I can tune either and get exactly the same programming). If I look in the Channel List under Messages and Settings, it shows both instances. I could disable one, but I'm afraid that I'd pick the wrong one, and some day when the duplicate disappears, my Season Passes for that channel would break.
I'm on Comcast in the Seattle area.
Is anyone else seeing this? Is this likely to be a Cable Card problem, a TiVo software problem or a guide data problem (Tribune)? It's not a huge problem (it's better than missing channels), but it's kind of odd...
