[ERROR] Unhandled exception caught from epg123.exe. message: An item with the same key has already been added.

I'm getting the same two errors. Trying to do a manual update doesn't help. I'm on version 1.6.0.4.

I released a new version to handle the problem. This is due to downloaded data from SD having duplicate Md5 hashes on the Tennis channel.

Unfortunately, I didn't catch it before release, but you will still get a red error logo, but it will update the guide successfully. There will just be 3 days on the Tennis Channel that won't get updated.

Thanks! I just installed the new version. I did indeed get an error, but it added an extra 2 days (I think) to my schedule, so it seems to be working correctly.

Did the update to 1.6.2.5 and got this warning after doing an update

[WARNG] The imported MXF file contained a WARNING in its status field.

It looks like there are a number of stations that have time discontinuities that may be residual from yesterday's issues. The warnings are for the discontinuities which you will see if you scroll up in the log file from when it was downloading from Schedules Direct.

Is there something I need to do?
Or will it work itself out without intervention.

Thanks again Gary

This is something that has to be fixed on Schedules Direct's end, so you just have to wait.

I have many of them myself, so looks like it might be a system-wide issue.
