XMLTV data not working (zap2xml)

[jtokach]

Hi sub,

I'm using zap2xml and it's been working fine, but now my guide data isn't displaying at all. Here's the logs and xml guide data.

Thanks,

Jim

Those logs don't contain an EPG update but I suspect your problem is your first listed channel in the xml file. I does not contain any display-name information:

Code:

    <channel id="I23408.labs.zap2it.com">
    </channel>

Yeah, I think that'd do it.

I don't think that's the issue. Apparently, if I try to download more than 9 days of data, GBPVR can't read the data. The file grows appropriately and all of the data seems intact.

If you zip and attach a current xml file, then I'll tell you what is wrong with it.

It could also be because the channel in the above entry is listed twice.

First with the blank info:

Code:

    <channel id="I23408.labs.zap2it.com">
    </channel>

Then again with channel info:

Code:

    <channel id="I23408.labs.zap2it.com">
        <display-name>100 LOOR100</display-name>
        <display-name>100</display-name>
        <display-name>LOOR100</display-name>
    </channel>

GB-PVR expects only one occurrence of a channel ID and you have two for this one (I23408.labs.zap2it.com).

I would think that the XML parser wouldn't care how many times the same channel is listed.

Here's my latest file. Now, nothing is displaying in the guide at all.

Yes it would. That would be an invalid xmltv file, and enough to stop the file from being imported any further.

Without a dtd, I don't know what's up or down. Anyhow, I'll remove the dup manually, test, and report back.

[jtokach]

Okay, I removed the duplicate and still there is nothing displaying in the guide.
