It won't affect you, you're one hour ahead of UTC. It's only an error when behind UTC..

i think the problem is that in PVR::CPVREpg::Cleanup local time is compared with utc.

thought I checked that. will have a look at it

edit:
yeah, it's comparing utc and local time in CEpg::RemoveTagsBetween(time_t start, time_t end, bool bRemoveFromDb = false)
will fix it

shouldn't that be tag->EndAsUTC in that code, since firstDate is in UTC?

I installed today the new xbmc (2:11.0-pvr+odk34~git20110508.23bd2c9-0ubuntu1~ppa+odk34~lucid). EPG is still empty like with last 2-3 builds. I have same packages as aedon posted on the previous page.

I can use epg in vdr-sxfe and everything there is ok. In xbmc I can watch tv, but epg says no information and db files are pretty empty too. Channels are only listed in xbmc.

Code:

void PVR::CPVREpg::Cleanup(const CDateTime &Time)
{
CSingleLock lock(m_critSection);

CDateTime firstDate = Time.GetAsUTCDateTime() - CDateTimeSpan(0, g_advancedSettings.m_iEpgLingerTime / 60, g_advancedSettings.m_iEpgLingerTime % 60, 0);

unsigned int iSize = size();
for (unsigned int iTagPtr = 0; iTagPtr < iSize; iTagPtr++)
{
CPVREpgInfoTag tag = (CPVREpgInfoTag *) at(iTagPtr);
if ( tag && / valid tag /
!tag->HasTimer() && / no timer set */
tag->EndAsLocalTime() < firstDate)
{
DeleteInfoTag(tag);
iTagPtr--;
iSize--;
}
}
}`

This patch improves the problem a lot. It's now 8.10am and with this patch the on channel epg starts again at 11am instead of 4pm..

I got tvheadend working today and the same problem exists with that as with VDR, so this is an XBMC side problem with a +UTC timezone..

bleh, forgot that the cleanup method is overwritten in CPVREpg and only fixed it in CEpg

could you try https://github.com/opdenkamp/xbmc/commit...3a69c23c93

I have.. Looks like it's working.. Am playing around with the my channels.conf at the moment, but at first glace all was good.

The only issue may be that the current program wasn't in the channels list, but the timeline was correct and stayed that way..

Now I have an epg I can tell you more information. Everything works from the timeline window. However, once the epg has loaded the channels appear empty. If I click in one, the channel starts but the info button doesn't show any information. If I select menu I don't have an epg button I can click on to check either the surrounding channels or the schedule for that channel.

If I select a channel via timeline, the info window has the channel information.
