3 At this point, the generated file is ready to be modified by appending the
corresponding TV Guide source ID to the end of each line of the file. There are
two ways to modify the file. The file can be sent to TV Guide, where TV Guide
engineers will modify the file and return it to the system operator. Or, someone
on-site at the headend, who is familiar with TV Guide source IDs, can modify the
file directly.
Important: The file should be renamed after TV Guide source IDs have been
appended to the file. This way, the system operator can readily differentiate
between a file that has already been modified and one that has yet to be
modified. Consider a name like
sasourceids_implemented_mmddyyyyhhmmss.list for a file that has already
been modified.
Example: The contents of the sasourceids_mmddyyyyhhmmss.list file, renamed
to sasourceids_implemented_mmddyyyyhhmmss.list, will look similar to this
example after it has been modified:

4 After the sasourceids_mmddyyyyhhmmss.list file has been modified with TV
Guide source IDs (and renamed), run the mvsrcid utility with the -i option. The -i
option allows you to examine the DNCS source IDs and the corresponding TV
Guide source IDs before you update the database.

5 After examining the DNCS source IDs and the corresponding TV Guide source
IDs, stop the DNCS. The DNCS needs to be stopped before the database is
updated with TV Guide source IDs.
updated with TV Guide source IDs.
6 After stopping the DNCS, run the mvsrcid utility with the -u option. The -u
option updates the relevant database tables with the TV Guide source IDs.
7 Restart the DNCS.
