EPG Update Not Working Properly

[sub]

The missing listings were being lost when this error happened:

I've found the cause, and fixed. I'm now getting complete listings from your ts files.

I've attached an updated DeviceHostWindows.exe. Reboot, then replace your existing file and it'll correct the problem.

Thank you for the reply, and please accept my apologies for my not having replied sooner.
Unfortunately, I didn't receive the usual email advising me of a new posting to this thread, even though I was already subscribed to it.
The updated DeviceHostWindows.exe file seems to have cured the problem of the incomplete programme listings.
I can now see a full set of listings for the next 7 days.
Please note that a maximum period of 7 days is normally available on Australian TVs.
Unfortunately, I'm now getting another two problems, both related to Live TV viewing.
When you get the chance to read this reply, could you please advise me how best to post details of these two problems, because I'm not sure if they are related to the problem currently under discussion.
Please let me know if you think I should post these problems in a new thread, or whether I could just add them to this thread.
Thanks in advance.

I've also been affected by this bug -- loss of EPG information for the SBS channel group in Australia.

The updated DeviceHostWindows file resolved the problem.

Same issue in Brisbane.
Have replaced with DeviceHostWindows file, stopped and started NextPVR still no SBS data.
Re-booted a couple of times and still no SBS data.
I am using Version: 5.2.7.220410, with Hauppauge WinTV-dual HD DVBT tuner, the WIN TV app does show the EPG for SBS.

That is too old a version to get any support.  Using DeviceHostWindows from different versions is also not supported

Updated to Version: 6.1.4.230625, set scan time for guide update to 2mins per frequency.
Still no SBS data in the guide.

Did you also add DeviceHostWindows? If so upload the zipped logs for further checking

[Shorncliffe]

Yep, replaced DeviceHostWindows, new version dated 25/6/23, so I guess this is the correct file.
Logs attached.
