Problem with Schedules Direct??

[garyan2]

Okay. That option will be present if it finds "c:\program files\silicondust\hdhomerun\hdhomerun_config.exe" or "c:\program files (x86)\silicondust\hdhomerun\hdhomerun_config.exe". Is that file present or in another location?

No, I don't have that installed on the machine.

[garyan2]

I hadn't even thought of that as a configuration, but here we are. So you have WMC working with the HDHomeRun tuners without the tuner drivers installed? I didn't think that was possible though I never tried before.

I'll get an update out with that limitation removed.

[garyan2]

I just updated the file in the same release so you will have to re-download the setup file. No updates to the files themselves, just the installer.

[emg60060]

Interesting. I don't think I have ever had it installed on the pc. Anyway, thanks for the update. I'll check it out.

For me with 1.8.0.7, I see the following error message in the log file when I click on the EPG123 app icon (app does not run).


[7/2/2023 9:43:21 PM] [ERROR] Unhandled exception caught from epg123.exe. message: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I am having a similar issue on one of my two WMC systems. I was having an issue yesterday with epg123.exe because, I understand, the Schedules Direct Server was down as I could not see either of my subscribed lineups. This morning the lineups are visible/selectable in epg123 but when I select the proper lineup and try to "Save an Execute", I get a message that says "There are no INCLUDED lineups and/or no stations selected for download. Do you wish to commit to these changes?" There does not appear to be a way for me to select any stations in my lineup as they are there but they are greyed out. On the system I am having this trouble I had downloaded and installed the latest version of epg123 (1.8.0.7). So I reinstalled version 1.7.3.0 (which is currently installed and working on my other WMC system) and am still having the same "no stations selected" problem/issue. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

You need to include the lineup(s) in the download. From the link above, scroll down to step 9.

Thanks Gary! It's working now. Not sure how it got turned off but I'm seeing the lineups/stations now.

EPG123 is now reporting that my lineup has been deleted. I’ve opened a ticket with SD.

Schedules Direct responded in about 40 minutes saying they reset something.
Seems to be working fine now.

Turns out the release of the new email alert function was timed brilliantly!

Well, here we go again. Malformed json.

Update epg123. Version 1.7.1.12 doesn't support automatic correction of malformed json from SD.
