Custom Data Grabber including Sky UK Channel/EPG Grabber (4 Viewers)

[DragonQ]

You need to tick 'Always try to update existing entries' in the DVB EPG section of the TV-Server Configuration.

Oh really? I assumed only the settings on the Sky UK Grabber page would actually affect it. I'll take a look at that option, thanks.

Hi all,

Does anyone have any issues currently as all was fine last night. Been to work come home and all channels do not work. Stuttering and some just refuse to come on. Deleted all and updated epg but i get ERROR decoding title, index was outside the bounds of array. And no NIT found for 3868 and so on.

Settings i have currently are

Frequency: 11778000
Symbol: 27500
Transport ID: 2004
Service ID: 4152

Vertical and mod not set.
Cheers

Hi DJBlu,

Again 1st off great work as always

I'd been holding off reporting this till 1.3 Final was out to see if that affected it but unfortunately I still have an error.

I think I know why it is happening and that is because I used a UNC network location for my MePo database folder instead of on my local SSD but I haven't seen anywhere to say this would be the problem, I think I even remember you were actively involved moving MePo over to a central database in the past.

Log extract seems to say the CAR S.O.S recording isn't there but it most certainly is:

Normal recordings play fine and are stored in the same UNC folder and I can manually play the file using WMP etc.

Any ideas?

Edited as something was staring me in the face and didn't even see it!!

The path to the recording is wrong as it has been placed inside a Nat Geo HD folder that is not in the path in the error.

Location on disk:

\\HOMESERVER-PC\Recordings\Nat Geo HD\Car S.O.S\Car S.O.S - 2013-04-01.ts

In error log:

PlayRecording:\\HOMESERVER-PC\Recordings\Car S.O.S\Car S.O.S - 2013-04-01.ts

So it looks like it is not putting the channel directory into the recording database??


Thanks, Bob.

anyone else getting constant tv service crashes? I had a stable system on previous versions, but 1.3final with datagrabber is causing a lot of tvservice drops - can last for half a day, or the service can crash constantly. I have attached logs incase this is the grabber, but will also post in general help incase its related to the tv service in general.


I have tried unselecting preload card but this wasn't a problem in other versions and it hasn't made a difference

I had a tv server crash this morning which is my first one, will keep an eye on it and see how it goes and if it continues i will provide logs.

Disable the picture grabbing for now as it's this that is causing the issue.

Just tried recording a series and my system refuses to wake when a recording is due to start, If I wake it manually the recording starts, I understand this was a problem a while ago.... Was it ever solved ???

Do you use powerscheduler?

 

[404]

No just Windows power settings. Always worked fine for me until now...

 

[404]

Just tried a single recording and it didn't wake for that either, So any scheduled recording only happens if my system is already on. Are there any logs I can check ??

Thanks
