Sounds like you are not importing into the database. Verify running "Full Mode" in the client GUI, or option to "Automatically import ..." is selected in the configuration GUI. Attaching the last update run from the trace.log file if the scheduled task is setup correctly.kodi2k6 wrote:My media guide has been stuck at an End Date of "8/8/2017 10 PM" for several days or more. I check the SD page and don't see anything wrong there. In my event logs, it shows that my media "package is already up to date." I am new to EPG123/SD is there something wrong with my set up or SD? When I first switched from Rovi to EPG123/SD, I think I had almost three weeks of media guide data, and I was ecstatic. Now, I am down to less than a week. Suggestions?
Thanks.

Thanks for the heads up about SD.
I went into EPG123 and modified my line-up, Save & Exit, and low and behold, my media guide updated !
I don't exactly know what was wrong but it seems to be working now.

A Save & Execute will force an immediate update. Need to make sure your scheduled task is set up properly.kodi2k6 wrote:Thanks for the heads up about SD.

Seems like overnight overloads. My updates at 2AM MT are consistently failing for last 5 days. Did a manual run today midday and got a full download with no timeouts.

I know it goes against everyone's sense of order, but you need to be a bit more random in your choice of update times. The even hours are going to be the worst because of that desire for order along with the thousands of other SD subscribers. I do mine at 04:22 for that reason and never have a timeout.webminster wrote:Seems like overnight overloads. My updates at 2AM MT are consistently failing for last 5 days.

Any other UK users with EPG123/Schedules Direct out there?
My PC with DVB-T2 card is fine (now) but the one with DVB-S2 cards has 'to be announced' on some channels after Saturday morning.
I switched over to SD to get away from these problems.

You probably need to start a new thread with some screen shot of your epg123 settings and with a copy of your trace.log attached so we can see what may be going wrong.

No I did not - that's why I switched.
I had a look on the SD forum and on here wondering if it was a general issue before getting too involved in troubleshooting it and will take it up with SD and/or Gary if I can't resolve it myself.

True, they had some upstream problems yesterday. Below is a message I got from rkulagow concerning the issue. I don't think it is related, but may be. I was hoping some UK users would chime in to answer. I believe the updates to some listings in the UK are only once a week to provide 2 weeks of data. I don't if that is only for specific lineups, or all lineups.newfiend wrote:Don't know if this is related or not but SD had some Server down time yesterday. I wasn't able to login at all or DL new guide data until later yesterday evening. Seems resolved now for me.

changing.)
Until I was able to troubleshoot, I put the service into maintenance mode.
In this particular case, we're getting bad data. We have guards in place to protect if we got _no_ data, but what we were getting back was valid JSON, just not appropriate.
While they sort out their issue, I have updated our service to allow most requests, but accessing the /headends REST endpoint will now reply with
{
"code": 3001,
"message": "Retrieving headends disabled."
}
There's a thread at
http://forums.schedulesdirect.org/viewt ... =18&t=2930
for status.
Let me know if you have any questions / issues.

Thanks guys.
Didn't see any point in doing in-depth troubleshooting if there was a general issue.
The problem seems to have resolved over night as I now seem to have at least 10 days in all channels on both terrestrial and satellite.
Other than a couple of glitches, I like what I see and am very happy that I switched.
