Not all EPG data shown in Guide
|
Not all EPG data is shown in the Guide. On my Samsung TV the guide is much more populated. Also in TV Mosaic all EPG data is shown... so the data is there but it's not all used by NextPVR which is a real pitty if you want to do more advanced recording using filter on these descriptions.
Is this a bug? I could give you more log/testdata if you want.

Is the data missing from the "Description" column of the EPG_EVENT table? It might be that NextPVR does not handle the format of the broadcast EPG at your location. You can view the logs ... Settings -> About ... Click Logs Files to flush the logs to disk and to create a zip file ... "Open with" Windows Explorer ... nrecord.log is the current log of the NextPVR Server service ... You should see messages telling you the frequency where NextPVR found EPG data during an Update EPG. You can use the evaluation version of TScapture from ... https://tscapture.com/ ... to capture a one minute FULL transport stream from a frequency that contains EPG data and post the capture file to Dropbox or somewhere.

You can find the 1 minute capture for NPO1: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5ii2xqyvkl7a4f...O1.ts?dl=0
and NPO2 here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/25lwulfaibsw5w...O2.ts?dl=0 Just curious: With what tool do you extract the EPG from this .ts stream?

My understanding is that he uses a device that reads the .TS file and generates a signal that is sent via coax to a tuner device in his computer exactly as if the coax was connected to the aerial on the roof of your house. NextPVR is then able to see the broadcast stream exactly as if Sub's computer was in the room with you.

I had a look at those files with a linux program called dvbtee and it shows more than now/next but only the time and title. This particular program did see a lot of EIT errors. Those seem like small files for one minute capture it seems like it is just EIT data.

Second try... I now used different settings. See screenshot. Instead of Full Transport stream I used Single Channel Transport stream.
The DVB-C settings are taken from my provider Trined here in the Netherlands. This one is much bigger. You can find the stream here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/q3ir7i6utmeb8r...02.ts?dl=0

You had it right the first time sub normally wants the full transport stream.
