thanks for this great add-on.

having trouble with the EPG and USTVNow.
I'm getting the error that:

Code:

Guide-data from ptvlguide is currently unavailable.

at first launch, i would get the error:

Code:

XMLTV Error: Improper Formatting

funny thing is, i could have sworn it was working -- just before the update.
not sure what all of this means.
thanks in advance for any help with this.

Let me be the first to say there are going to be A LOT OF HAPPY PEOPLE because of the channel renumbering feature. Nice work, my initial testing says it works as advertised.

BTW I don't know if anyone ever reported it, but the advanced channel rule that allows you to rename the channel seems to toss an extra space in the value. Which causes your channel icon to fail to load. I can't imagine someone hasn't said something... either that or its the way I'm using my remote.

Here's an example

Code:

<setting id="Channel_225_rule_2_opt_1" value=" NATGEO" />

The extra space in the value will prevent natgeo.png from loading in the EPG.


Otherwise PTVL is really turning into something pretty awesome. I ran it for almost a week without ever shutting it down. Lot's of OnDemand action and grabbing stuff from my library. No issues.

Keep up the good work.

P.S. I have a major update to the Maverick skin. When it's ready I'll push it to my Git and hit you with a PM.

I reported this a while back. The only channel types I use are TV Show, Movie Genre and Playlist and they all did that.

Try Misc/Clear system cache, then General/Force Channel Reset, Then re autotune ustvnow or verify each channel in the configuration manager.

Yeah to be honest I think it does it anytime you set an advanced channel rule that renames the channel.

That's probably because the ptvlguide file doesn't contain any EPG data for the channel you're adding.
