What's happening to MeTV+ on channel 1167 in San Francisco Bay Area?

I went to MeTV+ to watch Hunter, and notice it showing a looping promo about Western TV channel starting sometime in September. It ends with a message to "rescan" for MeTV+, but doesn't explain what cable subscribers should do. Is MeTV+ being replaced or moved? Will Comcast/Xfinity still carry it in the San Francisco Bay Area?

that's a subchannel broadcast by one of your over the air tv stations. Xfinity just re-transmits what is being sent to them.

you should reach out to the appropriate local tv station in your area with your questions and concerns - it appears to be TV station KTLN

1167 is the Comcast/Xfinity in the San Francisco channel for MeTV+. Well, I should say WAS THE CHANNEL ON COMCAST/XFINITY FOR MeTV+. KTLN is the station for people who DOES NOT HAVE CABLE at all and using and antenna, here in in the San Francisco Bay Area.

That doesn't answer the question about channel 1167.  IP only delivery, do you mean streaming only? What does HD programming mean?  Your cable channels are already HD.  Is this content going to exist or not.  Metv+ isn't going away.

Hello @lr88, IP Delivered channels are specific channels that can only be watched with an X1 TV Box.  HD programming is a video format with a much higher image resolution than standard definition.  To find the Comcast channel lineup for your address, you can visit this link: https://www.xfinity.com/support/local-channel-lineup.

So, what will be new Comcast/Xfinity Channel for MeTV+ in the San Francisco Bay Area? When the West Network takes over 1167 which is now the Comcast/Xfinity channel for MeTV+ in the San Francisco. I would think there are people who want to watch Hunter, Police Story, Covert Affair, VIP, T.J. Hooker, etc.... By the way I'm NOT asking about over the air. I'm like some don't have an antenna and has Comcast/Xfinity.

Please stop having AI answer Syndicates question.  Is the programming that is currently Metv+ going to be available on a Comcast/Xfinity san francisco channel, and if so which one.  Not a hard question and one that if you bothered to have a real person read it could quickly answer.  I am not happy with this change and do not enjoy the extremely dated westerns.

@XfinityMarshante​ The link DOES NOT show or talks about what is the new channel for MeTV+ for Comcast/Xfinity subscribers in San Francisco Bay Area. When the West Network sets in. I would think it be happing in other cities in other states also, for people who has Comcast/Xfinity cable and does not use an antenna and watch over the air channels. Got to tell Comcast/Xfinity subscribers and let them know, in case there are one that do watch MeTV+ for shows like Hunter, Covert Affairs, The Saint, The Rookie, VIP, T.J. Hooker, Misson Impossible and Police Story.

user_injcs0 hello and thank you for reaching out via our Xfinity Communtiy Forums. Finding specific channels on cable can be tricky since they often change and vary by location. As of now, MeTV+ is a digital subchannel that is carried by certain TV stations, and whether your local area carries it depends on specific agreements.

 

To find out for sure, the best thing to do is either:

  • Check your Xfinity channel lineup online. You can usually find this by logging into your account on the Xfinity website.

  • Allow us to reivew your address and line up with you so we can see what is available in your area. 

If you would like to reivew your current channel line up and offers with you please send a direct message with your full name and address. 

 

To send a "Direct Message":

Click "Sign In" if necessary

Click the "Direct Messaging" icon at the top of the page (it looks like a text bubble)

Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon

Type "Xfinity Support" in the "To:" line and select "Xfinity Support" from the drop-down list that appears. The "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line

Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window

Press Enter to send it

According to the article, West will be broadcasting various classic westerns.

ALL of which are currently being broadcasted on various channels on Comcast!  No need for West to exist.
As usual, negative changes to Comcast yet constant price increases gives subscribers more reason to cancel Comcast and go elsewhere. The only entities that can get away with offering less yet charging more and still exist are the USPS and the CA DMV!

I definitely understand it can be upsetting when changes occrut to the lineups. We do also have situations where new content or channels are carried as well. We are always happy to take feedback forward though.

The September 2025 Xfinity cable TV bill for San Francisco indicated the Nosey talk show rerun subchannel (channel 171/KTVU+ channel 36.2) will end around October 29, 2025.   Another open Comcast channel to add all West, MeTV+ and MeTV Toons subchannels from the KTLN feed if both parties agree.    Right now, Comcast's Bay Area digital subchannel carriage is seriously lacking with unfilled channel space and carrying only about 10-12 subchannels out of the 100 subchannels broadcasting on over the air free tv
