PostUpdatEPG.bat not running

[roy]

If its doesnt appear to be running, then I'm pretty sure it'll be one of these:
- file is named wrong, or in wrong directory, so never run
- file is run, but some commands in the file are expecting certain current directory, so commands are not found when bat file executes
- security is stopping the file from being seen/run.

I've added some logging around this in the next release, to make it clearer to users what is happening.

Thanks, I'll look into it more when I have a chance.

I didn't even know GBPVR had a PostUpdateEPG.bat...

This is where Google strikes.

anyhow, just so you know where I got my crazy ideas from:


and also here: http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...post384401

those two bits of info - whurlston describing his request, and you saying "yes" to my question describing the feature - are really the only information I've ever seen explaining the feature.

All I was saying was 'yes' I added a PostUpdateEPG.bat.

I added the PostUpdateEPG.bat in the way that made the most sense, which just happened to be the same way GBPVR has done it for years.

no, I understand, I was just explaining where I got my misunderstanding from. it's all moot anyhow.

Hi
PostUpdateEPG.bat not running XmltvExtras for me automatically. If I manually run the PostUpdateEPG.bat it does launch XmltvExtras. I tried putting the PostUpdateEPG.bat in TaskScheduler - it appears to run but does not run XmltvExtras - I noticed the Task Scheduler run result was 0x1 rather than 0x0. This article may explain thishttp://www.technologyquestions.com/techn...t-0x1.html XmltvExtras does work directly from Task Scheduler so for now I've put XmltvExtras directly in Task Scheduler to run 5 mins after the EPG Auto Update hour.
