Its kind of difficult to track down this type of problem, because its hard to know exactly what epg data you should be getting. Like anything I need good info to help track it down.

Ideally I'd like to see logs form the following.
1) do an 'empty epg'
2) set epg update hour to current hour.
3) restart recording services
4) leave it 10 minutes or so to do the EPG update, then upload the nrecord.log and ndigitalhost.log files.

then,
1) set the epg update hour back to 2am or similar and restart recording service.
2) do an 'empty epg'
3) do an 'update epg'
4) let it complete, then upload the npvr.log

ie, logs from both an automated update, and a manual update, both from approximately the same time of the day

Good suggestion but I don't think that these good folks need a workaround. Or to use DVBGuide. They need to work out why NextPVR had changed the behaviour with the xml tv files.

cheers

Just a suggestion for a temporary solution until Sub has the time to work it out.

Enclosed are EPG UPdate logs as requested for Automatic update just after 14:00 and manual update at about 14:30 both of which seem to be sucessful with a high number of listings saved for each channel.

For me all seemed ok this morning with 87 pending recordings but on checking the NRecord log it only found about 30. On checking the later log it did another EPG update after the Reboot timed after the overnight EPG update. A few minutes after the overnight EPG update I schedule a reboot and another EPG update starts immediately after the recording service starts. Could it be that NextPVR or Windows thinks the earlier faulty EPG update missed the scheduled time so runs it again?

The difference between the two automatic updates is that ndigitalhost.log contains no tuning info for the faulty automatic update last night.

Sigh. 4 times have I tried to do this - each time it has worked perfectly.
Bloody Sod and his law!

I will keep trying.
I will run DVBGuide to gather the EPG data as well, without giving it to NPVR.

I haven't changed anything in my setup and have been running without problems for two weeks now. Bizar!
