hi to all

After the clocks in the UK went forward,  XMLTV Import has stopped working, it just says that its importing but it never starts!

 

Will this problem be fixed?

I have a feeling some servers are out of sync of have empty data files. It seems to take a few retry's to get everything in.

 

Yesterday I had no data at all, today I have Benelux, a part of Germany, no UK. In total about 59000 events, usually almost 200000.

According to the logs, this seems to happen:

The reason I have Benelux data is dat it was imported before this, so it went ok.

 

This suggests that after a download error, all others fail or are skipped, although they are downloaded without any problem?

Since 12h00 (UTC + 2) all the files should be updated.

This morning the update failed.  (do not know why.  Manually started the grab and everything worked normally)

 

I presume the safest way to update now is restart enigma and try again.

Checking that now.

 

edit: all files imported now, not sure if that is a coincedence or not, I still think there's a bug in the importer that causes subsequent downloads not to be processed after an error has occurred.
