Sorry to be unclear, but I am not sure what is wrong.

I use zap2it to get the TV program OTA listings, with zap2xml. The little batch program has worked fine for a year or so, and then I also do the desktop NPVR app and tell it to update listings also. Works great, although I haven't recorded for months due to a motherboard issue from a 10 year old machine.

But a day or so ago, suddenly, NPVR TV Guide shows "(no show details)" for all. I didn't grab the exact time when the info stopped. But now all TV Guide info on NPVR is just no show details.

I'm clueless. When I run the batch file to get the program data from zap2it, it seems to run normally, getting the data from Zap2it. And so does NPVR's desktop app when I say Update. I logged in to "my account" at zap2it and it seemed to be OK. 

But the TV Guide view then shows " no show details."

I've no idea what has suddenly changed  . . . 

Can you help?  If so, thanks!

I think I have attached my log in case that is helpful.

It's almost certainly something going wrong in zap2xml, like zap2it has changed something about their website, and zap2xml is no longer able to extract the listing. You may need to update your zap2xml software or something to fix.

You could look in C:\EPG\xmltv\xmltv.xml to see if it has any current listings. My guess is that is they're old listings, and no listings for the current time, so NextPVR has to show "(no show details)" to fill the gaps.

Thanks, sub!  Fixed it!

xmltv.xml was, somehow, an old file. Renamed it, then used my batch file to make a new one, and bam, I now have listings again.

THANKS!
