I have what seems to be a similar problem to http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...dates-fail, but rather than hijack that thread, I thought I'd post separately.
Until recently returning to Australia, I was using TVxb and updateEPG.bat to populate the EPG without issues. However, now that the EPG is within the DVT stream and I don't use Pay TV, my UpdateEPG,bat file is now empty.
Whilst I can update the EPG manually from the System plugin, and can also have individual channels update when watching during LiveTV, the auto-update of the EPG at 5AM results in many entries of the EPG being cleared with 'no show details'.
Attached are extracts of NRECORD and NVPR logs around the times of the automatic update (5AM) , and the manual update (11:14AM). The only thing that seem significantly different is that the 5AM update doesn't report saving as many listing at the manual update does (eg auto update reports in NRecording.log only a handful of listings saved, whereas the manual update reports in NPVR.log hundreds of listings being saved)
I note that the logs report "Asking NDigitalHost to start: c:\devxxxxxx\null.ts". I do not see this file in the c: folder, however, maybe this gets cleaned up.
Yes, I know I am a number of versions out of date (2.5.5), but my machine spec's are starting to age (incl XP), so I'd like to stick with an older version and the assumption that resource requirements may be less. There must be something unique about my setup, as I can't believe this is a bug in NPVR 2.5.5. However, if this is indeed a bug, then I guess I'll need to try a newer version.
