Move a working TV guide to a new player without losing the old mapping

Move one known channel and guide mapping first. Keep the old player usable until you can reproduce a correct guide time and a working stream on the new one.

Write down the useful public identifiers

Choose two channels with distinct schedules. Record the visible feed labels, the local time zone and one current programme per channel. If the old player lets you view the source mapping, record the channel ID and offset in your private notes. Keep the actual playlist address and access tokens out of shared reports.

Import one source and test both stations

Add the viewing account and guide using the new player’s supported input methods. Compare the first test station before adding a second guide feed. Then check the other station. If only one is wrong, review the feed ID and schedule mapping. If both are wrong by the same amount, check the device and guide time settings before editing every station.

Verify after reopening the app

Close and reopen the player. Check whether the guide source is still assigned and whether the same stations show the expected schedule. Confirm any separate licence or paid feature with the publisher before changing the old setup. Leave the original device available if the new configuration needs a second look.
