SchedulesDirect Automatic EPG Updates

[toricred]

I just realized that when I configured my EPG I didn't see a way to make sure it updates. As it turns out I haven't gotten an update since I first manually populated it. How do I get this set up?

[sub]

It'll automatically try to update the epg each night. If you zip and attach your nrecord.log files, I'll check what happened last night.

Here they are:

I found the error. It appears that it is timing out reaching SchedulesDirect, but when I run it manually it does work. Is there someplace to adjust the timeout setting?

Edit:

It is also trying to get DVB/ATSC EPG data. I don't have any channels set to this. They are all set to SchedulesDirect.

There is no timeout that I'm aware of.

How many channels have you got? Are you on dial up?

I have 101 in for 4 of the tuners and 7 for the other 8 tuners. I assume since it is the same 101 for the first 4 tuners it only downloads them once and the same with the 7 for the last 8 tuners.

I missed the dial up question. No I'm on cable. 35mb/s down so that shouldn't be it.

Yes, it only downloads them once. I'm not really sure what to suggest on that one. Does it work when you manually hit the 'update epg' button?

[toricred]

Yes it works, although it is slow.

That button just runs the same code that does the automated update runs overnight, so it should assuming you dont have any firewall rules that are stopping it working from nrecord.exe instead of nextpvr.exe.

I'll check mine at home as it was left running overnight -- and I'm using Schedulesdirect too..
