VDR VNSI - No EPG

rdoac · 2011-04-26 18:46

I have a wierd problem with my epg's too. When I first run xbmc, my call script deletes the Epg4.db and TV12.db files so I start with a clean epg. The epg loads and is correct for about 1/2 hour. (Every now and then I get no epg). Then I get stuck on the program which was current when the epg loaded and nothing afterwards, then about an hour later I have no epg at all.

I think it may be something to do with the timezone offsets not quite working. I am in Chicago so -6GMT.

90% sure it's a vdr-vnsi only issue. but still, please pastebin a full debug log.

If I go into channel view, I don't have any information. Timeline shows program information for 10pm tonight on now..

rdoac · 2011-04-26 21:35

Ah, after 10pm tonight my program guide appears again..

nothing special showing up in that debug log. I'll add some more debug logging in the epg update code.

but I'm still suspecting vdr/vnsi because I haven't seen that behaviour since the conversion to utc times in the interface was made.

rdoac · 2011-04-26 23:13

It looks like the epg is all there in the right place, but the 8 hours between now and then get thrown away. I'm wondering if that would fit with my GMT offset (and being on summer time).. So, vdr-vnsi sends the details, but then the new utc zoning requests it again, but offset to my actual time.. (Maybe calls it using utc, but it's interpretted as local time?)..

However, why would it pull in correctly initially?

**opdenkamp** · 2011-04-27 08:51

yeah good point. I'll check the old entry cleanup code later today. could still be an issue in there.

rdoac · 2011-05-05 00:23

Any news on this? Does anyone else have this issue?
