EPG Auto Download, Process

[oldmanmarcin]

In the past few days I noticed that EPG download data is not being updated automatically.. And the only way to download EPG is updating it manually...

Post your logs and I'll take a look.

This was from the automated EPG update at 3AM.

[oldmanmarcin]

thanks.... I will be checking the logs daily... I missed some recordings few days ago because EPG was not up to date...

[oldmanmarcin]

I am attaching log files and screenshot. Looking at the logs EPG is being updated every day at 3 am.... but.. today I looked ta the GUiDE and the EPG just shows "NO SHOW DETAILS" for tomarrow...? (screenshot attached)

what I noticed is that the first EPG run in the log file:
2008-03-18 is running a "CompleteEPGReload" and for all other days it's not... so I am trying to look at EPG for the next week and I can't.....

Is it possible to always have 4-7 days EPG loaded in the system?..

I think I can see what is happening, and its a bug with my CT TV Listings support. Given the CT TV Listings service ends in about a week, its probably not worth fixing now.

[oldmanmarcin]

what's a good EPG source for U.S market?
