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

[rlevis]

I know this is off-topic but while we are talking Benoire, do you have any idea why I don't get any EMM updates with my configuration which is or was the same as yours? The only difference I see is the TV tuner Blackgold BGT3600 which doesn't support simultaneous decoding of multiple channels on the same transponder. I'm thinking it must be the tuner not forwarding the EMM updates, if that is even possible. Still having to put the card in the sky decoder every 3 months for a couple of hours.

@rlevis

We need to take this to private as this is far too much and close to the rules around softcams etc.

Hey @DJBlu

Sorry I know I sound like a stuck record, but it would be great if you where able to release the code for the plugins you developed (I really do appreciate that you spent quite some time developing these and I can say for those users that use them that MediaPortal would not be the same without them). I've got the issue of the free to air channels clogging up the database over time as they're duplicated on each scan and it would be good to try and fix this...

I guess I am respectfully requesting and understand if you don't.

Thanks,

Chris

Hello everyone,

Interesting issue has come up. Occasionally on channel scans the plugin seems to ignore the request for HD channels in place of SD ones and ticks a whole truck of them, but it doesn't;t assign a channel number or a group; Effectively they're listed at the bottom of the All Channels group without a valid number (assigned 10,000) but they are ticked automatically. I have the grabber running on a 3hr grab if that's any difference... Has anyone else come across this?

Good evening,

On Sky UK is anyone else getting this error:

"Error Docoding Summary, Index was outside the bounds of the array"

This is happening on two machines setup with Sky UK Grabber. What are the potential consequences of this error?

Thanks

I don't think there are really. It seems to appear when the plugin has trouble with the stream, most probably an error in the stream at that point in time... Depending on your grab settings you should have sufficient EPG left before the next scan.

Ok cool, i'll try it again in a couple of hours and see if it still persists, was just concerned cause it came up on both machines in seperate houses.

Mine does it occasionally and I am in New Zealand; it is simply a way in which the plugin deals with the error in the stream.

I had this the other day, didn't seem to be a problem.

Hi

I am also having this error and this is during a clean reinstall.
The channels load but no signal detected on any channel?
Any help would be appreciated as I have now lost all tv viewing!
