v1.26.2421451

Lineup data only. No code, no matcher and no settings changed, so nothing in this release alters how matching behaves.

Added

Four new lineup files, bringing the total to 20:

• Spectrum Tampa Bay for Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco and Hernando Counties, Florida, in three variants: all channels (409), no Spanish (322), and Spanish only (87). Contributed by @LazyQuad in #25.
• Optimum, 342 channels, compiled from Optimum's published Southern Westchester channel listing. Contributed by @officialJCReyes in #24.

Changed

• Verizon FiOS ZIP 11743 refreshed by @matrix2669 in #23. The lineup goes from 512 to 508 channels, replaces provider shortcodes such as FYIHD and REELZHD with the real channel names FYI and Reelz, keeps historical names as aliases, and removes aliases that could resolve to more than one channel.

  Measured against a pool of 11,627 provider stream names, this raises the number of lineup channels that match a stream from 192 to 219, while the share of those matches that are ambiguous falls from 79 percent to 74 percent.

Fixed

Corrections applied to the contributed files, each removing a case where two channels in one lineup reduced to the same name and competed for the same stream:

• In the Spectrum Tampa Bay lineups, the Spanish TOON at channel 970 is renamed TOON en Español so it no longer collides with the Kids TOON at channel 58; the alias SBN is removed from SonLife Broadcasting Network, since SBN is the name of a different channel at 505; the duplicated station identifier 30324 is removed from SBN; and the alias beINS is removed from beIN Sports en Español, since it belongs to the English beIN Sports.
• In the Optimum lineup, three names lose their brackets so the qualifier survives matcher normalization: Cartoon Network (SAP), Disney XD (SAP) and i24NEWS (in French) become Cartoon Network SAP, Disney XD SAP and i24NEWS French.
