Hi
I am using xxv with my vdr, but lately there has been strange problem. Couple of channels are missing most of the EPG data. Same data is in the vdr epg file, but does not appear in xxv. I have tried to look some erros from log file but haven't found any error messages.
This was what I did found: 853 (200) [2009-02-12 20:39:37] EPG: Compare EPG Database with data from vdr : 55 / 181 for channel 'Sub' - C-0-2-97
If I have understood correctly number 55 refers to programs in xxv database and 181 to programs in vdr epg file. At least most of the channels these two are the same and one can see all event in epg.
Has anyone any ideas how to fix the problem?
Best regards, Matti
ps. I am from Finland if that is important and have ubuntu interid and vdr-xxv is from hanno repository.

Some operators (at least Welho) have rearranged their channel id's, so you may need to re-scan your channels or allow VDR to automatically update pid's and id's.

I have allowed vdr to search new channels and transponders so it should also found new PIDs I think. At least in logfile it says that vdr has found some new pids.
I did update first only channel data for channels which had missing epg data in xxv. This did help, but at the same time TV2 did start miss epg data. Then I updated whole channel.conf and now TV2 seem to be workin, but MTV3 is missing some of its program and SUBTV does not have any epd data in XXV. At the same time data in vdradmin is correct. Strange.

Are you sure you dont have duplicate channels, that is same name, ie. 'YLE Teema' but different SID's, this is what happened when Digita rearranged antenna-channels, VDR added second 'YLE Teema' with new SID, I had to manually remove the old YLE Teema.

Shouldn't event_id be unique? At least it did say so in man page. It seem that this could be a reason for my problems. I can see the first event with same event_id in xxv but not the second one. Why event_id is same if it should be unique?

The event id only needs to be unique within the *same* channel. The above events are from two different channels.

Ok, then is shouldn't be the problem.
Hmm.. Next thing what could made some this problem. :P I notice that CHANNEL.pm and EPG.pm modules has different version numbers.
EPG.pm: my $version = 27; # Must be increment if rows of table changed
CHANNELS.pm: my $version = 26; # Must be increment if rows of table changed
But I am not sure can this be a problem as different tables can most probably have different versions.
