Why the group name alone does not match a schedule

Compare KinoMult (KinoMult.ru) with Moya Planeta (MoyaPlaneta.ru). Both are associated with the group in the snapshot, but each has its own ID. The selected rows are most often categorized as movies. Match one known programme and the correct market on the chosen station before merging guide data.

How the association was made

The list groups the network field where it is present and the first owner field otherwise. A common group label is a lookup clue. Use the individual operator's schedule for current branding, programme rights and availability.
