at the begining of reboot all the event now/next are available (in channel list and in EPG Multi)

 

the next 3 pictures you can see the difrence

the event Now/next begins to disapear and the (EPGCACHE) will not update or reload until 60min (I tested)

 

Attached File  08.jpg   394.2KB   5 downloads

 

so if we change the value in epgcache.h

 


#define CLEAN_INTERVAL 60000 // 1 min

- #define UPDATE_INTERVAL 3600000 // 60 min

+#define UPDATE_INTERVAL 60000 // 1 min


#define ZAP_DELAY 2000 // 2 sek

 

the problem will be solved and in epgcache.cpp:

 


 


bool eEPGCache::channel_data::finishEPG()

{

if (!isRunning) // epg ready

{

eDebug("[EPGC] stop caching events(%ld)", ::time(0));

zapTimer->start(UPDATE_INTERVAL, 1);

eDebug("[EPGC] next update in %i min", UPDATE_INTERVAL / 60000); (that's means 1 min not 60min)

for (unsigned int i=0; i < sizeof(seenSections)/sizeof(tidMap); ++i)

{

seenSections[i].clear();

calcedSections[i].clear();

 

 

 

more explains :)  :)  :)  tomorrow

AFIK, the "now/next" EPG isn't affected by the 60 minute setting.

Only a guess. EPG data contains only events for the next 20 minutes or similar. According to the pictures the events are short. Is that right? So if there are 2 events in one hour the epg data for the second event is maybe not loaded.

Do we really need to start it every minute? I don’t think it’s a good idea. Maybe every 15 minutes is also sufficient.

we can make it like in user interface and let the user chose the interval for updated.. something like this :

and the result is :

look this  video and you will see at 17h30 in some channels , how the updated works and change the events when the scroll pass the channels

with this method its easy to choose the programs that you wanna watch and even add timer

Please consider using OWIF to "grab" screenshots.

I don't understand what you are trying to shows us.

(although betacentauri, most probably described the problem just fine)

look at this , do you think that is easy to pick up a channel and watch what you want , of coourse not you have to zap channel to channel, because most of the channels without EPG and this is the same packages so the epg is simulatnely

 

 

yes betacentauri , understand the problem specially when its comes to a short event like children programs about 10 to 25 min , or you're about to catch the end of a program

I think having an option for it in settings would be better so users could change it like 1,5,10,15,20,30,60 but 10 minutes would be sufficient I guess.

Please don't add another option that 99% of users won't have the faintest clue about what it means, and only one or two people would actually change it.

The 1 hour setting is for when EPG loading is complete. Apparently your provider is doing something weird and pretends the EPG is complete when it isn't. The EPG system loads all the EPG data from the transponder, and once complete, it stops doing so because it is pointless to parse the same data over and over again. On some providers, loading the full EPG takes over half an hour.

The now/next EPG (not to be confused with what the reciever may or may not show as the "next" program) is a completely different class that is not broadcasted through this interface at all. It will even keep working if you disable EPG completely.

So please let's try to solve this to the benefit of everyone and don't let one million users suffer just because of your personal workaround.

What provider are you seeing this on?

And what box are you using?

Dm800 and dm520. I think that's reasonable . I watch french and spanish..
I tried to make a plugin or make some change in python (like epglist.py) but i dont know how to call c++ in python.
So i will try to make patch to epgcache and put it enigma2 folder and will see (after building the image)

well , i think a lot of the users don't know the meaning of MHW and EIT and even what they chose 720p or 1080i and even Timer (best recall it record event of program), but with the time and manipulation they can deal with it ;)

Dm800 and dm520.

 

:o

There is no DM520 OpenPLi image available (see download section) and for dm800 there is only a very old 2.1 image available. We won't change this image. We also won't create new 6.x image for that box. The box is out of live and out of support.

i know that, but what about the unoficiel dm800 support, maybe we can taste that there, even PE (Persian Prince) support my idea :)

Supporting ideas is cheap, real support on the other hand, costs time at least.

Supporting 'old' STB's look nice, but is a bit futile. The boxes have very little RAM, minimal HW support for newer functions. Slow SoC. So why bother?
