Sports wishlist no longer works

You have to change it to this:
Title Keyword:
Seahawks
(NFL Football)
(Night Football)

Category:
Sports: Sports Event

 

Here's the format I've been using for mine. And last time I checked, sports WLs won't work if set to 'New Only.'

Keyword: Seattle
Title keyword: Seahawks
Category: Sports: Football

 

All of my Soccer One pass stopped recording. Can someone provide specific instructions for setting up a Wish list to include:

UEFA Champions League
UEFA Europa League
Capital One Cup

This should be with no repeats and no magazine or highlight shows. I just want to record the games. Strangely enough, my EPL Season Pass still works. None of the games recorded for me last week and i am ready to jump to Xfinity X1 box.

It is not currently possible to record sports without repeats. There is no workaround.

 

Capital One Cup kind of throws me off a bit, but for the rest it might look like this:

Title Keyword: UEFA
Keywords: (Lea*, Soccer) - parentheses on both keywords setting each as optional
Category: Sports/Sports Event

The results show both Champions League and Europa League upcoming matches thru 9/29.

As for the "new" vs. "new and repeats", you'd likely need to check the To-Do List daily since the guide data isn't quite working properly delineate from each other at this time.

I'm on Comcast in Beaverton, OR and doing a separate search for Capital One does not bring up any results at this time. Try this:

Title Keyword: EFL Cup
Keyword: Soccer
Category: Sports/Sports Event

I'm only seeing results for an SD channel (BEIN1), but it shows today's matches 9/20 thru 9/23.

Hopefully that at least gives a starting point to play w/ the WishList(s) even further.

 

Thank you so much!!!!! I will try this when I get home.

 

I hope they get this problem fixed by the start of the NBA season!

 

*sigh* I really wish folks would just try to go into the create WL screen, go add a keyword and then look at the right side of the screen. It tells you what to do to add required or optional keywords, and the keywords you need are all in the guide data show titles and descriptions.

Or just read this:

Yes, this means you have to read something and try it yourself instead of being spoon-fed. Sucks, I know.

 

Thank you for your smart ass comment. But I did read and after creating the wish list, nothing showed up. the key was to make sure to put new and repeat. This only happened after the new guide. I hope venting help you feel better about yourself.

 

Too bad Wishlists searches no longer tell you how to add optional or required options. It now spends a whole paragraph telling you how to search for airplane. So it is to be expected people will not know how to do it.

 

Thank you so much. This worked perfectly.

 

You're welcome, glad to assist! I've been doing a lot of adjusting/tinkering w/ my sports ARWLs myself, mostly to properly capture Broncos games, Ducks & Beavers college FB games, and Timbers (MLS) games.

 

Anyone know how I can make a wishlist for the Pirates? I have tried using Pittsburgh, tried using Pirates one at a time as both the keyword and title keyword. I get pregame and post-game shows but the actual games do not turn up.

 

Try this:

Title Keyword: MLB, (Baseball)
Keywords: Pittsburgh, (Pirates) - parentheses on Pirates keyword, setting it as optional
Category: Sports/Sports Event

if no luck, try reversing the optional keyword from Pirates to (Pittsburgh)
you may need to set it to record both "new and repeats".

 

I too read it and got nothing. Like the other poster I had no idea there were changes now.

 

My tried and true NFL wishlist no longer worked. I tried a few different wishlists which also didn't work and were deleted. Now the deleted wishlists record all the NFL analysis shows I don't watch and I can't get them to stop (because they're deleted and no longer exist outside their corporeal form). I converted the old wishlist to 4 separate 1p's. Monday night football is one of them and is #2 on the priority list. I didn't bother to check it before this past Monday's game. To my surprise, it didn't record the first opportunity it got because it conflicted with Samantha Bee's show which is #42 on the priority list? Opened another trouble ticket, and it was promptly closed. This is maddening. I guess the bright spot is that I had some regret I didn't invest in Romio when they were cheap last year, that regret is gone.

 

It's to be expected that people can't read the description on the add keyword screen??? There's even a 'press info for help' that gives you exactly what you need about required, optional and excluded keywords. Yes, you do have to scroll over to the keywords after you add them and I realize that takes extra button pushes.

Agree that it won't tell you why new vs. new and repeats is needed, though. But the help you need to create custom ARWLs is all there.

 

Yes, it is to be expected since they no longer show that information on the screen. There is nothing there to read about enabling optional or required. TiVo moved it to the "info" screen which I am sure 99% of people don't even know exists.

 

I used the same thing as before when I setup a new wishlist. I used Redskins, NFL, and Sports: Football. But I also set it for New and repeats. And this picks up the Redskin games.
But in addition to that I have 1Ps for Monday, Thursday, and Sunday Night Football. Which picks up all the National night games. Then I have a 1P for NFL football. Which picks up all the locally broadcast games on Sundays.
