How is the EPG Updater working with 15.2?

[Autoroam]

My guide loaded perfectly this morning…all channels this time.

However the -1 hour offset doesn't seem to be taking effect, despite that setting being enabled by me in the epg updater config panel.

(I cleared data twice and restarted Kodi before reporting this.)

did you delete the xmltv_epg.xml
its probably loading the cache file and not updating from server after you change the setting.

go to system>file manager > profile dir/userdata/addon_data/pvr.stalker(.nfps)

delete the epg_xmltv.xml..
and restart kodi

 

[Autoroam]

george go to system>file manager > profile dir/userdata/addon_data/pvr.stalker(.nfps)

delete the epg_xmltv.xml..
and restart kodi.. doe the file come back?
did you link stalker client to that file or follow the instructions in the how to thread?

I did but don't see epg_xmltv.xml. Have cache.xml and settings.xml.

I did but don't see epg_xmltv.xml. Have cache.xml and settings.xml.

then you dont have the epg updater installed.
did you install the repo?
after that goto addons/install from repositor/.epg ninga addons/services and install it

Just out of interest, what is the version of the latest epg updater, is it 1.0.5? I have the epg updater installed on three devices, all on version 1.0.4 initially. One of the devices updated the epg updater to 1.0.5 and the the other two haven't. I then started to get an epg updater error on start up with version 1.0.5 and had to resolve it by uninstalling the addon and reinstalling version 1.0.4 from the repo again. Could the issue be that I'm using kodi 15.2 and the epg updater version 1.0.5 is optimised for kodi 16 only?

adyy.. for some reason 105 is not downloading from the repo properly.. you can install it manually from http://epg.ninja/clairvoyance/testing.. still looking into the issue.

 

[adyf]

Thanks psycon, so when 1.0.5 is installed manually it should function properly?

Same here, just started doing it today.

there were some issues with the grabs.. fixed now.. delete your epg_xmltv.xml files and clear data to force an update.

Did that but still an hour ahead

 

[Autoroam]

Just did it chief....and now theres no data at all in the epg

Earlier xmltv file was 29 or so mb now its 14 something mb

Followed your instructions perfectly.

Kodi 15.2/Stalker 0.8.4/Minix

Edit: when i go to my user data>addon data>epgupdate folder via the ES File Explorer, there is ony one settings.xml folder there.

Same happened with me but did it a second time & guide came back but still ahead

 

[Autoroam]

Yup...got it back after restarting my box.

Conclusion: 1 hr discrepancy is better than no epg

 

[psycon]

autoroam is your guide in color or grey

Set the time on your box 1hr behind as a temp solution.
