EPG number of days

[pcostanza]

I seem to be having a problem getting my requested number of days of EPG download. Actually, since using NPVR, I've never been able to get the full 15 days from Schedules Direct that I got in GBPVR. However, I was getting 10 days. Now, I seem to only be able to show 5 days in my Guide. Even using the Microsoft Legacy choice doesn't seem to make a difference.
I have tried other grabbers with no luck. All I see in my guide is 'No Details'. Has anyone else noticed a problem like this? Another system is only able to show 6 days down from 12 originally.

I'm not aware of any reason you'd be limited. Are you sure the xmltv file you're feeding NPVR has listings for that far out?

[pcostanza]

Yes, I checked it twice. However, I started from scratch and this time, left out all variables such -d 360, -a etc. and that seems to have worked with Schedules Direct. It was very odd that about each week, I'd lose a day or 2 of listings.
I'll keep an eye on it this time and see if I start loosing days again. I swear, sometimes I think my system is haunted with some of the freaky things that happen. I wish I could blame them all on me.

When you notice it, zip and email me your xmltv file and your npvr.db3 file. I'll take a look.

I think I am the only one, but I continue to use whurlston's fantastic MceEpg tools and I get almost 12 days of data. I just ran an upgrade to test and it took me to midnight on the 27th (GMT) from just about midnight ET on the 14th.

I use to use MceEpg when I had Vista but when I moved to W7, it didn't work. Maybe I need to try it again. However, now I'm getting 15 days but I'm thinking I'll soon have to start from scratch again to keep it working.

It doesn't work on Win7. Something I've been meaning to look into but it was at the bottom of the todo list. Might get bumped up now though.

Don't crunch this out on my account. Not that I wouldn't be happy as a school girl to use it. However, my EPG has been buggy since NVPR was out. Might be bad mojo on my systems but for now, it's working.

On a somewhat related note, sub, though it's not needed, are you still planning on having Schedules Direct support (directly) in NPVR?

[whurlston]

I might need to implement the basics for it to do the MCE OCUR bridge tuner.

im having the same issue. Im using mc2xml to get the data from schedules direct. I just ran the utility today (tuesday) and checked the epg and it only goes out 7 days. That is what is in the xml list. however with gbpvr I always was able to to get like 15 days of data. any thoughts?
