I've got Deswapper_1.1.3_all running, and AutoTimer created SBS timers four or more days into the future now include the truncated program descriptions. How will this uniqueness test for "Title and all descriptions" cope when the relevant SBS EPG entry is replaced with one where the descr...

does that mean renaming: BWizV2/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/AutoTimer/ AutoTimer.pyo to retain the original? ... and downloading AutoTimer.py from https://github.com/oe-alliance/enigma2-plugins/tree/master/autotimer/src then copying the downloaded AutoTimer.py to BWizV2/usr/lib/enigma...

I did however observe a very slight start time difference, typically one minute later, on the duplicates.

I don't see you mentioning "Guess existing timer based on begin/end".

If you want me to take a look at your troublesome AutoTimer definitions then I'd be happy to.

We can be watching a recorded program and suddenly playback stops.

That sounds to me like your're chase-playing a current recording, yes?

Grumpy, in your screenshot on the previous page. How do you get grey for highlight current events?

Possibly this -

I use the the Full-Metal-Wizard skin, with the non-PiG Graphical EPG

I don't think the "non-PiG" is relevant though.

TS-Doctor is another transport stream editor. It can output a .ts file and create the associated .ap and .sc index files.

I've just been looking at it, and noticed a "Remove not existing events" toggle towards the end, currently disabled. Would enabling this solve my problem, instead of enabling "Guess existing timer based on begin/end" and trying to side-load a python script file? The "Remove...

Grumpy_Geoff

What do we install to get that? This change is really only needed if you use "Title and all descriptions". If you use "Title and Short description" then there's no issue. I'd not advise it unless you are experienced in Wiz command line access. The basics are to grab the current ...

Grumpy_Geoff

Do you use a uniqueness check on these AutoTimer definitions? I now routinely use Require description to be unique: On same service. A uniqueness test of "Title and all descriptions" is buggy in the version of the plugin in the Beyonwiz repository. For at least the last 10 months I've bee...

I've noticed program descriptions a few days out are incomplete, and those with a start time within the next 24 to 72 hours get updated in the evening. This is also when the extra Timer jobs appear. I see what you mean about the changing short description, see attached result from an EPG search wit...

However, I am still missing recordings - they show up on the recorded list as '0 minutes' in duration.

For some recordings or all recordings?
If you press i/INFO on the relevant timers for those empty recordings, do they all use the same tuner?

Grumpy_Geoff

Oh I forgot, you should be running adoxa's "Deswapper" plugin. It will swap around the SBS crap short and extended descriptions.

Enable AutoTimer setting "Guess existing timer based on begin/end". From live TV, MENU>>AutoTimers, then MENU>>Settings. Enabling "Guess existing timer based on begin/end" just allows an existing timer on the same service to be modified to match the new EPG times, if the original...

Both Sony TVs say to check the antenna, however the 2nd V2 has no problem and is happily recording everything it’s supposed to.

So the TVs can't display a TV signal?
How are their antenna inputs connected in relation to the V2s?

Grumpy_Geoff

Maybe they are cooked? Will try a multi-pronged attack of remedies. Thank you for the suggestions. Try tuner B - MENU>>Setup>>Tuners>>Tuner allocation. Set Preferred tuner to Tuner B. Then exit back to "live TV" and change the service to a different TV network to force the use of tuner B ...

Grumpy_Geoff

Seeing the bubbles screen and empty recordings sounds to me like it's either no antenna signal, or the V2 has lost its broadcast signal scan data.

So when I delete recordings in the “recordings” folder they don’t go into the trash folder in that directory, but to the trash folder of the root directory. Which basically means a couple of extra steps now required to delete watched recordings. I can live with it but it’s a bit… odd. Why bother? T...

I’ve noticed that when I delete recordings, the files go into the top-level Trash folder, and not the Trash folder of the directory those recordings were in. Which is not how I would expect any OS to behave. Is setting "Use trash in movie list" enabled (MEDIA, MENU>>Settings...)? Is /medi...

The serviceref picon links for the two Sydney 9Go! channels haven't changed since December 2015, so the IceTV triplets shouldn't have needed to change. They're not "new" triplets as Dan says. Well, there was a change 3 years ago, at least in Perth and Melbourne, where the extra 9Go! LCN 9...

Grumpy_Geoff

But I don't quite understand the 9Go! Sydney situation. Even if NINE dropped broadcasting LCN 93/SID 423 in the Sydney market, isn't LCN 99/SID 428 still the same as it was - or had they not been broadcasting it simulcasted in Sydney? Daniel has since posted on the IceTV forum that he has fixed the...

I suspect IceTV has the wrong service reference data. I think the "classic" series uses LCN matching, right?
Quite likely, and yes.

I found the IceTV error - wrong Transport Stream ID.

I just checked and I'm not getting any IceTV guide data for SBS WorldWatch on my T4, whereas I am getting it on my DP-S1. Strange. I checked it on my test T4.

In Perth 9Go! is still broadcast on two LCNs, 93 and 99. I don't know if there's been a recent change in the Sydney market, but the FreeTV Service Information Register for NSW shows they should be using SIDs 423 and 428 respectively. https://www.freetv.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Free-TV-Austr...

No idea why things screwed up I explained that - At some point, I think TEN changed the service type from SD to HD, thus the name doesn't match the scan table if you've recently rescanned (but prl's picons match to both SD and HD). To put it another way - The 10 BOLD service reference for Brisbane ...

No, all good in both those bouquets. How do I correct Favourites bouquets? Either - (i) use the GUI: Press FAV, CH+/- to switch to either of "Last Scanned" or "Terrestrial TV LCN" bouquets Select 10 BOLD GREEN/Add to Favourites CH+/- to switch back to Favourites bouquet select &...

Here's a screenshot. The T4 is working fine.1.png

So you ARE recording (tuner A).

Do a manual scan using a different tuner:
Setup>>Tuners>>Manual scan -
Tuner - Tuner B (or C or D)
Type of scan - Complete
System - Auto
Region - Brisbane
GREEN/Scan

I likely do have old service references in my Favourites bouquet, I recently rescanned for Pete's latest enquiry. Yep, 'tis when I noticed it too. I attempted to re-scan again (just now) but still get the "'ERROR: Failed to scan" message. Not seen this one before. What does OpenWebif's &q...

Are you currently recording?

Grumpy_Geoff

Also, timer start times are set differently between pressing REC while in the EPG (which was what I thought had been done in the OP), and pressing REC while watching live TV. Because I thought that REC had been pressed in the EPG, that's what I tested in my earlier posts. Yes, initially it was desc...

Grumpy_Geoff

But a recording set from Live TV can capture the start of the already broadcasting event from timeshift. That would be the reason you'd do it from there. Blot doesn't run with timeshift enabled. But even if he did, from live TV, REC>>1/Create instant recording... doesn't save the current contents o...

Grumpy_Geoff

If you create an instant timer in the epg on a current event, That is not an instant timer. An instant timer is created when you press REC from live TV. it does not cover the start of the EPG event either, so I am not sure you understand. Of course it doesn't record the start of the already broadca...

Grumpy_Geoff

In the epg the timer does show red if I create the same timer, so it is a weird bug. But it's not the same timer - it has a different start time; one that does not cover the start of the EPG event. If you create a timer outside of the EPG, but still want the relevant EPG event to be correctly shade...

Grumpy_Geoff

Rec ok ok is the same number of presses with better keys and less presses if you are not wanting to close the epg, for example I often just want to press the power button and switch to AppleTV or Blu Ray Up to you. GREEN>>GREEN does not close the EPG. A bug is a bug I don't believe there's a bug. Y...

Grumpy_Geoff

That's a silly way to set the record timer.
Bring up the EPG.
Navigate to the event.
Press GREEN>>GREEN.
Observe the red highlighting indicating a timer is set.

Grumpy_Geoff

In Perth, that event went from 14:06 - 16:38. Your timer runs from 14:13 - 16:48, thus no complete match. I know you have 0 mins pre-padding, I assume the post-padding is set to 10? prl has stated he tested with 0-mins pre-padding and couldn't replicate the issue. It must come down to exactly how yo...

What is going on with the EPG display? Why is there no event info displayed above the timeline? Why does it appear to have the bottom-section of the (classic) Beyonwiz power button?

What firmware version are you running? I think that problem was fixed in recent releases.
