EPG Information truncated

[Marty56]

I tried the latest build ( v5.2.7.2204106) under Debian Bullseye.

It improved the overall reception of the EPG. Before I had to run the EPG scanner several times with extended scan time to somewhat randomly complete all EPG entries for all TV stations. Now, I only need to run the EPG once with the default 60 sec scan.
That a great improvement!!

One issue is still remaining. The description of the show is still truncated sometimes.

They use a slightly different way to transmit show descriptions in Germany on DVB, and it's possible I don't have the logic quite right in NextPVR.

If you can capture and supply a sample full transport stream file, and a couple of screenshots of example programs, I'll check it here and fix.

Do you know how to do that with SAT>IP. Is it pids=all ?

On some SAT>IP devices, that is the case. Some don't support pids=all.

I am running Linux and as far as I know capturing transport stream is not really possible on this OS, right?
Also I am using SAT->IP in combination with a Cable receiver (Fritz.box).

I have no idea how you'd do it on Linux. You'd have to google it.

Do you have a Windows PC at home? You should be able to install another program from sub TSCapture https://www.tscapture.com/ and use evaluation mode. Note that the created file will be very large so you will need to put it on an external host like OneDrive, GoogleDrive or DropBox.

I have installed the latest Verision from October 2022 v6.1.0.221017
Unfortunately the EPG Information is still truncated.

It is easy on Linux or windows to capture a full mux is you have tuner card. The issue is doing it from sat>IP so either you need to find out how to do it or use an alternate EPG source like Schedules Direct

I'd still need a sample full transport stream, so I can see the issue here, otherwise I have no way analyse the problem and fix the issue.
