Problem when switching from XMLTV to SchedulesDirect...

[whurlston]

Can you zip and post your npvr.db3? There seems to be an issue with either the database or the version of NEWA that you are using.

Code:

2013-02-06 08:58:15.231    [ERROR][14]    Unexpected error in EPGEvent.LoadByOID(): System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary.
   at System.ThrowHelper.ThrowKeyNotFoundException()
   at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.get_Item(TKey key)
   at NUtility.EPGEvent.GetListingsForTimePeriod(DateTime startTime, DateTime endTime)

There are several other errors in the NEWA log as well.

Please let me know of any questions. Thanks!

Thanks. It might be tonight before I can take a look but UJB or someone else might be able to before that.

Try this command.... it seems to fix the issue of showing in NPVR but not showing in NEWA....

npvr.exe -emptyepg

then reload your epg

The problem looks more like the channels were removed from the device and it isn't NEWA related. You should just have edited the Details on the channels tab.

@UncleJohnsBand: Thanks for that. I ran "nextpvr.exe -emptyepg" and noticed that all my channels disappeared from withing NPVR's Settings-->Channels dialog. I clicked "Update EPG" but nothing happened. I noticed that in Settings-->Device, there are no channels listed next to my analog device any longer.

Do I need to rescan channels?

@mvallevand: That sounds reasonable... When I switched from XMLTV to SchedulesDirect, I probably deleted all the channels...

Thanks for offering to help, guys. Here's where I am now:

* I am using MC2XML to pull Schedule Direct listings into an XMLTV.xml file.
* ran "nextpvr.exe -emptyepg" and all my channels were deleted (nothing shows up in Settings-->Channels.

Waiting to hear back from the experts on this forum, as to what I do next. Thanks!

[mvallevand]

Did you re-add the channels to you device?

No... thought I'd wait for guidance before scanning again.

No... thought I'd wait for guidance before scanning again.

For what it's worth, I update the EPG using a batch file that retrieves EPG data and creates an XMLTV file and then runs NextPVR with -emptyepgonly and then runs NextPVR again with -updateepgonly to update the EPG in the database. I don't use the Update EPG button in Settings --> Channels or the EPG Update Hour in Settings --> Misc2.
