Epg123 UK BBC listings

#1

Post by wavemachine » Tue Sep 27, 2016 9:37 pm

Hi,

I have been using EPG123 for three weeks quite happily but have now noticed all the listings for BBC 1 channels and BBC2 had end on Friday 30th showing no data available after then. All other channels seem fine.

Is anyone else seeing this, is it a configuration proble, a problem with schedules direct?

Any ideas how I can find out what is going on?

I have forced a manual update that ran without error.

Thanks

Problem solved, I rebuilt the WMC guide database which caused the BBC listings to disappear completely, I then remapped the BBC channels in guide tool and all is well again :)

Cool. Did you use the "Rebuild WMC Database" button? I suspect that your listings went stale because the stationId was changed/different. Anything in your trace.log file mentioning the lineup added a BBC station?
