In Topic: No EPG Today - Mirror Offline(see post #12)

8 March 2017 - 22:00

I'm having the same issue. But not only for UK. Benelux is also empty. 0 events.

The EPG has been acting up for a few days now (UK sometimes missing, and Benelux showing wrong events), but when I got home this evening, the whole EPG was empty and manually rescanning doesn't help.

 

Don't know if it's related to the mirror issues, but I'm seeing the same issues of wrong events on Belgian channels again. For example the Epg I'm seeing for the channel VIER for Sunday evening, is actually for Monday evening... (for example, the program De Mol at 8:35PM is on Mondays, but the EPG shows it on Sunday.)

I guess an update of the sources.  In the sources file remove the mirror in question.

Have not done this, and hesitate to do it, since the website would probably be online again after next weekend.  (I am in contact with the webmaster about this)

 

Another fix that should be applied is cater for this situation in the XMLTVimport plug-in.  When an unzipped file is received, the file should be skipped an another mirror tried.

Only I do not have a clue on how todo this.  If somebody with some python knowledge could have look to the plug-in and see if it this can be achieved.

 

The Github is here:  https://github.com/O...ons-xmltvimport

Just a wild guess (very little Python knowledge and the code isn't really well documented either):

EPGImport.py, line 192, afterChannelDownload

After checking for file size, also check if the contents is actually xml. On failure, it'll go to channelDownloadFail which looks like it's trying another mirror.

(EDIT: there will need to be an appropriate check for epg.dat files too of course)

yes, victory. Thanks. Only had to comment out that 1 line. 

 

BBC 1 is still empty after the first couple of events though. Same as before.
