TV Guide - Zero Size Error

[Old Dog]

I'm going to take a wild guess.

Vertically the problem is located where there is a gradient: the recording stripe in the timeline, the line where your cursor is located, a displayed line where you have something scheduled. In all cases, if it did not error out, it would be a small blip on the left side or right side of the guide.

Since I'm assuming there's nothing I can do to fix or prevent it, I just switched to XGuide for the moment...it seems to not get hung on the same output error. It's a pretty hard lockup when you hit it (keyboard/remote do not work), so I figure this is the only way to keep from some future WAF run-in.

I have found and corrected the issue for the next release. If its causing serious problems for anyone, you can apply the attached patch.

Thanks. Was it something that a non-progammer would understand? Just curious.

I just encountered "the TV Guide problem." :eek: I've tried to download the zip patch and keep getting an error stating to insert the "last disk." Another thing, the download size I am accomplishing is 334Kb and not the posted amount. Any solutions?

Worked for me, thanks Sub!

Nicjas, I'll assume that you're using Internet Explorer. Try using something else like Firefox. I've noticed that it can make a difference when downloading from the forums.

Try this:

Download the 334kb thing, change it to a .rar, open with winrar, extract the 224kb thing called gppvr, rename it gbpvr.zip, unzip that, and you are done.

It must not be a binary/ascii thing but winrar seems to know how to strip the rubbish away, and give you a workable zip file.

Just open the zip-file with winrar, select the "gbpvr-thing", then click on 'show' (I guess that's how it's called in english, it's the 4th button from the left) and jippieieieie it has opened the "thing".
