Empty OSD

[pvrnewb]

I'm using 98.13b with 2 pvr150 (one pci and one usb) and its been working great.
When Zap2it abandoned us all I wrote my own scraper to get the guides and its been working fine so far.
However a couple of days ago I noticed that the OSD was displaying the wrong title of the program, in fact it was locked in on some prior show. I restarted the machine in hopes it would clear and now all I get is the channel info and no program info. Since the guide is displaying all the correct information and recordings are all working, as they should I am left with 2 questions.

1) Where does the OSD get its information from and if its the epg xml what could I have changed that would make this happen.
2) Could there be some other cause for this (as you might guess with my old version I doesn't change often so not sure what could have happened)

Thanks a lot

I can only guess your scraper has generated some broken xml, maybe triggered by a slight change in the web site you're scraping. It probably generated a show with some distant future end date, which would probably cause they app to think it is the current show.

Sub,

Thank you for the fast reply.
Zap2it changed their site a couple of days ago which broke my scraper so I had to make a change. It was a minor change (they now display the channel in a table header (TH) rather than a a (TD).
Going with what you said I was unable to locate any program with a future time so not sure if that is it.
I also noticed that a few of the channel do display some data however its reversed so that the title is on top and the channel is below.
As my guide is just fine I'm still interested in knowing where OSD gets its information from, maybe that could help me locate the problem.

Thanks

The OSD gets its information from the PROGRAMME table of the database file (gbpvr.db3 or gbpvr.mdb).
