Been using NextPVR for a few months without a hitch but just this week the TV guide has stopped working. I should note that setting up the .xml and .bat files wasn't simple but following the Wiki guides and Forums here allowed me to achieve the dream. There have been no changes made to the Scripts folder or to the system in general. At first I thought it was a Kodi issue as my clients suddenly stopped showing new/scheduled recordings nor did they show guide info. So I checked NextPVR on my server PC, Windows 8.1 Intel i5, and the guide info did not appear in NextPVR either. Hence, the Kodi clients didn't have any EPG data to pull through.

I'm fairly tech savvy and can follow instructions well and am usually able to 'fix' things with some guidance. Attached are my logs and if any further info is needed to detect the problem I will surely supply it.

Thanks in advance for any assistance!!

First I recommend strongly just using the build in Schedules Direct support for your EPG source. If you are using grey-area sources like zap2xml you are not the only user having recent problems http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...post512508 perhaps follow suggestions in that thread.

It looks like you're using some xmltv utility to create your xmltv file. What utility are you using? I read a post here recently about about changes on the zap2it websites which broke zap2xml, and you needed to update to the new version of zap2xml to fix it. Maybe you're one of those effected by this?

EDIT: what he said...

At this point $25/year isn't sounding so bad.. Smile

Penny pinching was working for me until I missed three scheduled recordings.

Yeah, to be honest, you'll spend a lot more than $25 of your time yearly keeping these other unofficial EPG sources running. Schedules Direct also gets you better artwork and extra show information etc.
