Channels with call signs in the tvg-id

[jkemp814]

I have created a gist: https://gist.github.com/jkemp814/41151a0f7c45d5961563c7531c664e54

That shows channels with call signs in the tvg-id tag.

Can someone take a look and see what we should do to handle this?

Should we leave it as it is?

Some of these channels do not show up around other news channels because they start with 'K' or 'W', so they are way down the list.

How should these mainly news and public broadcasting channels be formatted?

I need an example, please. ABC 15 Phoenix (KNXV) - ABC 7 Detroit (WXYZ)?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Using call sign list

[Sphinxroot]

the main problem is to have the proper EPG (tvg-url ) that have those tvg-id

there so many source for them and many use different id

exemple

I have notice that. I have been using the list from:
