SchedulesDirect Update

So.... I have updated to SD listings, patched the CommonGBPVRxxxx.dll. (Can't remember the full name)

Changed the Zap2itXML in config to TRUE, updated my source to SD and... nothin... Seemed like even though I changed the EPG source, it was still trying to run XMLTV.exe every time I tried to update the EPG. (Checked Windows Task Manager, xmltv.exe loading)

So... I deleted my old capture source and created a new one. Re-inserted my information and ran update EPG from inside the config utility, seemed to work because I actually got the window that pops up from GBPVR saying it it updating your EPG data using Zap2it (read a post from Sub that said he will change the dialog in the next ver). Checked the c:\ path for Zap2It.xml, it is there and looks fine. But when I load up the PVRx2 interface, no data.

So I tried to re-update the EPG from the Tray, it loaded xmltv.exe again... ??? So I closed PVRx2, closed the tray, re-started the service, reloaded the tray and ran update EPG from the Tray... Still loading XMLTV.exe...

Still no data in the TV Guide. Checked Task Manager again... two copies of PVRX2 running... Killed both, Reloaded pvrx2... EPG is THERE!

Great! Now... try running epgupdate from the System menu or Tray... still runs XMLTV... ARRRGHHH. Load the config util... loads from SD... Gonna reboot and see what happens.

Will update when I'm back online.

Check your UpdateEPG.bat

[sub]

GB-PVR doesnt try to run any xmltv.exe, so this as whulston indicates above this is most likely something you've rigged up yourself, most likely run from a custom UpdateEPG.bat file you've created. A usual GB-PVR install wouldnt have this batch file.

So all I need to do is delete UpdateEPG.bat?

or rename it incase you ever want to use it again
