I'm unable to extract the guide from the HDHomeRun. This has been the case about 5 or 6 days.
If I manually run hdhr2mxf, I get a internal server error.
Code: Select all
C:\Program Files (x86)\epg-123>hdhr2mxf
Found HDHomeRun PRIME HDHR3-CC (131BB4C5) with firmware 20210210.
Found HDHomeRun RECORD () with firmware .
HDHomeRun DVR Service is active.
Using available 14-day XMLTV file from SiliconDust.
GetHdhrXmltvGuide(): The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.
using epg123_v1.6.2.5

Unfortunately I don't have a DVR service subscription with SiliconDust anymore to check it out, but it looks like they are not providing the xmltv. I'll take a look later today and may pony up the $35 fee again to see what is going on.

Guess that'll take care of that. Is your DVR subscription through a Servio, or a normal script?

I think just a normal script.

I was able to duplicate here, and got an email from another user reporting the same thing. Users of the 'Unofficial Kodi HDHomeRun DVR PVR Client' are now reporting the same thing on the SiliconDust forums. So either SiliconDust changed the server call for xmltv, or there is something wrong with it.

This seems like a big coincidence, but SiliconDust uses Gracenote for their guide listings as well. Seems strange that both SiliconDust and Schedules Direct could be having "server" problems at the same time.

Looks like it is back up and running. You should be able to download the xmltv file from SiliconDust now.
