Tv guide not populating

[zb1]

Something has changed somewhere (nothing I did...I don't think) to cause the TV Guide to all of a sudden not get populated with the data from mc2xml. I have run the EPG update several times through the PVR and manually. It is creating the xmltv.xml file with program schedules, but the XML file is not getting transferred to the TV Guide (I'm assuming that the guide gets its data from the XML file).

Any suggestions as to why it's not transferring the data from the XML file to the TV Guide?

Ignorant of this issue, however, that's never stopped me offering my advice before and at 57 I am to old to learn when to keep my advice to myself.
Bearing all that in mind please try re-register filters in the GBPVR menu.

If that doesn't work I would upload your logs so that someone, somewhat more knowledgeable than myself may help you.

Which log file is needed to determine the cause of the problem?

Hit the 'update epg' button in the config app, then post you config.exe.log and config.exe-native.log and I'll take a look.

The xmltv file you're supplying GB-PVR is invalid and has some channels using duplicate IDs.

SUB,
I corrected the Error but no get this new Error message below (logs attached). What does it mean?

Unexpected error informing recording service that EPG has updated: System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:7968

This means either the recording service isnt running, or you've got some firewall software getting in the way of communication.

SUB,
I haven't had this problem before and can't imagine what I would have changed in the system to cause it to do this. Any suggestions?

You'd need to find out if its running or not. ie, if you GBPVRRecordingService.exe in the task list, then its most likely caused by whatever firewall software you're running. If it isnt running, check in the Windows Event Viewer for a crash message.
