Enhancer misses shows

[LewE]

Wow, three minutes! It almost sounds like it didn't work right either. Is all your data complete?

It was too good to be true. The XML file had a bunch of entries like Ultra couldn't find information and how to donate.

I'd be at interested in seeing this out of your logs...

I ran it again from within PVRX2 by requesting EPG Update from System plugin and got the attached log. Attached is the log.

I wonder why you have this episode information here...

Did you try clicking 'go' a few times and then, did it finally start or did you replace the xml to beforeprocessing ?

Your logs are all over the place it seems like you tried running Ultra manually a file that was already processed.

I have built a safe guard into Ultra to prevent the reprocess of data. Are you circumventing somehow?

[zehd]

... Ultra couldn't find information and how to donate.

You know that out of 25000 records you'll be lucky to find info on 3000 programme records. There will be lots of errors: 'can't find, don't fetch' etc...

Also, what is the problem with 'donate blah blah'? At what point are you seeing that error. It's not in the log...

The Can't Find (or something like that) and the messages about donating were in the XML file that was the result of processing; not in the error log. Unfortunately, I didn't save the file before I did the whole EPG Update.

Yes. I did try running it manually after I downloaded the newer version of Ultra.

The reason I hit GO several times was I wanted to see what fields Ultra detected that I could use and the check boxes didn't populate unless I had it start processing. Then I may have changed some of the checks and had it start processing again.

When I noticed that Ultra didn't like processing a file that was already processed I requested a complete EPG Update from within PVRX2. The resulting log from that is what I attached to the message above.

Here's how to test in the future...

First delete or empty the log. Once is good enough to see what's going on

If Ultra sees an 'already processed' file, close Ultra, delete the xml file and rename the ...xml.BeforeProcess file to ...xml. Then run Ultra again...

Don't click the commit until you are sure you are getting a file you like.

On the main screen, choose 'Do Nothing' for both the epnum and eponscreen tags

On the ep info sub form, click delete cache and make sure that Prepend to subtitle is chosen for the action

Make sure that this is working before you try other formats.

Very soon I will be releasing a macro to set up Ultra with 'Zehd's picks' It will set up Ultra so that the EPG looks pretty good. It can still be customized after...

Thanks. It's real handy to see all those steps enumerated in one place.

I could tell that I was going in circles but since I don't know the internals of how Ultra processes files I wasn't sure how ot get a "clean run".

I think I'll add a button to restore a xml file. Probably with an 'Are you sure?'

I have another suggestion. On the Ultra screen there is a list of parameters on the right half of the display with check boxes to their left to indicate that the program has found them and to the right to indicate that the user wants them to be processed. If I understand correctly, the check boxes to the left (the ones in a purple box on the wiki) can not be changed for any effect by the user. If this is so, shouldn't these check boxes be grayed or use some other method to indicate that they are not user enterable?

Been burned one too many times huh?

I suppose. I might be doing something with that. New release coming soon, and I don't want to spend much more time before Christmas
