What happened to my TV guide?

[reboot]

Using Zap2it.

Yeah Yeah I got the same thing... I just thought it was me... heheh. Hey where abouts in Canada are you from? I just moved to California from Alberta.

Same thing here in South Florida

I use zap2it also (I am in California) and thought I would look to see what my TV guide shows. Sure enough, I see the same thing. If I scroll forward in time I see a few more empty blocks and then all sees fine a few hours into the schedule. I am using version .9107

Same here in New Orleans. This definitely was not here earlier today.

Hey are you guys having problems with your database compacting? Check your config.exe.log... My gbpvr.mdb keeps growing unless I compact it using access...

It's probably a zap2it issue, and not GB. I hadn't done anything recently to GB.

The only thing that made wonder if it was effecting it was daylight savings, but that's doubtful.

No its not related to that.

Its likely that zap2it just have some gaps in their data for one reason or another. Or more likely had gaps a week or so ago. They've probably filled those gaps now, but GB-PVR's zap2it support only retrieves listings from the most recent one the database forward, so wouldn't pick up any filler added by zap2it at a later date.

If you need to, could force a complete update by clicking 'empty EPG', followed by 'update epg'.

This is an XMLTV issue not GBPVR. Media Portal is missing the same timeframes (I was testing both apps) and they both use XMLTV....Correlation is not necessarily causation but it is just too bizzare to be coincidence. BTW I am in Northerner New Jersey US using Cablevision as my tv provider.

The US xmltv grabber just uses the same zap2it interface that GB-PVR uses, so it probably affects both.
