  • Could please try this without mods. This sounds like a mod issue.

  • Yes you have to always update them.

    As for version 1.51.77 these packages do work:

    [Removed - CM]

    so that you get the channels back and are able to watch movies alone.

    @LadyBella3000 I have same problem and after all mods updates nothing change. I like playing with mods so I’m not going uninstall them. Still upset because those tv channels are nice and helpful. Oh well 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Hey @ivyrayz,

    This thread is quite old, but those same initial troubleshooting steps would apply in this case if you do change your mind in the future.

    I will be locking this thread otherwise to prevent further necro-posting, thanks!
