ap90033 0 Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Have Schedules Direct. Set it up and guide worked fine for a few days. Then is stopped working and is blank. If I refresh nothing happens. If I delete and re add it works. How can I get this to reliably download and keep an EPG? If I need to post some log let me know what and where to get. Thanks!
Luke 42077 Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Hi, See here for info on how to get the server logs: http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/739-how-to-report-a-problem/ Ideally we'd like to see a log from the guide refresh that caused the info to be lost. thanks.
ebr 16169 Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 Instead of re-adding it, try just re-starting the server and then manually running a refresh guide. Does that also fix it?
MegaSwerv 1 Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) Same issue.A little history - Previously I had channels listed twice with only one channel showing schedule info. That has cleared, now I have the channels listed once but there is no schedule info. I've refreshed the schedule - no joy. Restarted the server - no joy. Checked my SchedulesDirect info - noticed under step 2 "Select Listings" I can fill in the country and zip code, however "Lineup:" never populates. I'll attach the log if I can figure that out.

Luke 42077 Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 got it! Unable to reach next pvr. Error getting response from http://localhost:8866/public/Util/NPVR/Client/Instantiate
MegaSwerv 1 Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Thank you Luke.If I understand what you're saying: NPVR must be running to update the schedule in Emby, even though Emby goes out to SchedulesDirect to get the information?
Luke 42077 Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Yes when you use next pvr it takes control over the live tv functions. the built-in schedules direct feature is not used.
MegaSwerv 1 Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Interesting. I've been looking for a good reason to drop NPVR and Kodi. Neither seems to add anything to Emby. Emby seems to be a very complete and well thought out package. I appreciate your experience and most timely response Luke. 1
Luke 42077 Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Thanks. Ideally we'd like to be able to make Schedules Direct work with the other tv providers but we'd prefer to focus our time on solutions that don't require external software because users always end up struggling with them.
ap90033 0 Posted November 22, 2015 Author Posted November 22, 2015 Question, I have Emby on my openmediavault NAS. I have NPVR on my desktop. Been using NPVR for a while. I want to switch but want to test and verify guide and recordings are stable and no issues. However, my guide currently on Emby seems to not work well. Right now it is blank. Since both EPG's are on separate devices seems like they would not interfere. I would hate to remove NPVR and move all scheduled recordings over to Emby then have no guide and issues. Know what I mean?

I just got ahd homerun and have had to utilise a raspberry pi running tvheadend and the tvheadend plugin to use it with Emby because shedules direct doesn't have Australia guide data
ebr 16169 Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 We looked into it a bit for Oz and found that the OTA standard down there is in the process of being deprecated. I think it goes away next November IIRC. Schedules Direct was also looking into providing support for AU but I'm not sure exactly where that stands right now.
bluemonkey07 590 Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Ok thanks for the info:) appears im SOL for the time being then;)
