After I used DJBlu's new files I am now getting :

"Failed to update the database"

And i can't start the tv server . What can I do ?

Ok manually fixed it.
Went into my mysql datebase and into mptvdb and the version table and changed versionnumber from 60 to 61 .

I'm not sure if I will have issues later on though. Has the database changed format or anything , or anything new added from 1.22 to 1.23

Hi, I have been using this excellent plugin for quite a while now but only for grabbing epg, not for getting or creating channels or groups.
So I dropped my database to delete all channels and info so I can start afresh.
I then opened the plugin and and let it run getting channel info and groups, etc, mostly default settings.
I then tried to tune a channel and it said 'no signal' on any channel I tuned to.
I then done a normal channel scan (not using the plugin) with channel movement detection clicked.
I can now tune to most channel correctly, but there are still some that when i try to tune say 'no signal'.
I have read the instructions but wondered if there was anything I am doing wrong, whats the 'usual' way everyone uses this plugin?

Kind regards.

    metropolis - are you using a hauppauge card by any chance? If so then you need to check/uncheck the settings for'set modulation to not set' - I cant remember if you need to do this for SD or HD, or both, but you def need to tweak this one on hauppague. Then delete your channels, and run the grabber again and test.

    DJBlu - not sure if this is a bug or not, but my Nick Jr has stopped working - I just get a blank screen - all other channels appear to be working ok...

    When I go into the TV Channels, I can see 2 Nick Jr's - one is enabled and in the kids group, the other disabled and not in any group - if I swap then around it works - but then the grabber takes out the working one on the next run.

    All my other sub channels work ok, as does the other Nick Jr, so its either bodged the settings for the one it wants to include, or is picking up the wrong channel.

    My Region is BBC South

    Is this something anyone else is getting or is there anything I can do to stop this breaking on each run - my kids need their Peppa Pig fix each morning so I have to get this back up and running!

    I can grab logs, but just wondered if this was common for others too or not?

    Thanks

    I only have 1 Nick Jr. here, and it works just fine..

    I have channel scanning enabled and it runs every 3 hours.
