If you can supply a sample of your xmltv file, I'll see if I can get it working.

Sub,
Back at post #26 I attached a file, FAST.rar. This is a snippet including the problem recording. If you need more let me know. Thanx!

I don't know if sub needs more, but I'd be curious to see your whole XMLTV.XML file (just .zip it, the forum allows bigger .zips than anything else). MC2XML used to include the "dd_progid" episode-num system which is what nextpvr uses for unique_id (and it actually matches schedules direct in that regard). The ms_progid was previously just a slightly different from of the same id; for example looking at an old file I have here the dd_progid is "EP01505788.0761" and the msprog_id is "1.EP015057880761". The msprog_id in your file is different, just "1.309901829", which may be usable but doesn't distinguish between SHow, EPisode, MoVie, SPorts which may be a problem.
Is this file coming from the donator version of MC2XML, or is the free version now fixed?

looks like that msprog_id ought to work fine as a unique_id, though there's no distinction between different types of shows (EP/SH/MV/SP) like with schedules direct. Some of the EPisodic type shows also have "<episode-num system="onscreen">9</episode-num>", but not all of them (for example some episodes of fast n' loud have this, others don't).

This one should get it going. Remember to do an 'empty epg' followed by an 'update epg'.

It also looks like <date/> is the original air date so you could infer new with that equally to <previously-shown start=... or <programme start= Martin

They've effectively changed their EPG source when mc2xml moved to rovi, and things that rely on show identifiers, like avoiding duplicates etc, wont be able to recognise existing recordings as matching ones in their new EPG. |
