Title: XMLTV guide no longer working
Post by: dean70 on March 13, 2018, 04:06:13 pm

Hi

I am runnung MC v20.0.131 and the TV guide reports no program data and does not show the EPG. Using XMLTV option which stopped working some time after September 2017. Has something changed with the XMLTV format? Checked the script runs and it downloads the xml file to C:\xmltv and has valid data. The data path in TV setup points to this folder.

First, if you are on MC20.0.131 you should update to MC20.0.133 as there were a few fixes in the last two updates of MC20. See https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Release_Notes_MC20

The XMLTV format hasn't changed. What are you using as the source of your data?

I'm not at my TV setup right now, but if you have valid XMLTV data being collected and it is up to date, then does a Manual Load of program guide data work?

If not have a look at the setup of the load process. Maybe something broke and just editing and saving the changes will fix it, or you may need to do a little re-setup.

Fixed the issue by switching to another xmltv provider. The original one was providing corrupt malformed xml files.
