NFPS xmltv EPG Grabber development

It worked for me on the PVR simple set up, but that's a local file (mine is now about 27 meg). It could be that the dummy channels themselves are just duplicates, but maybe remotely the guide loader is choking. Did you remove the footer from the current dummy.txt?

when your wondering about it check
Code:
https://github.com/psyc0n/NFPS-EPG-Grabber

you will see the nfpse.xml,ect files listed,i just looked and it was last updated 2 days ago so that's your problem.why don't you download it as per 1st post and run it locally on your pc like I do.just point your epg link to your locally generated nfpse.xml(or whichever one you use) instead of the id.gd link.that way I don't rely on someone else to keep my epg updated.

I downloaded grabber and ran go.bat and created an NFPSE.xml. Reset PVR and EPG databases, restarted Kodi and I then pointed my stalker PVR client to the local NFPSE.xml, but EPG guide is still blank.. Anyone know why or how to fix?
 
what I do is disable live tv.then reset pvr and epg database.then enable live tv again.if that don't work disable live tv,reset both databases.restart then enable live tv usually works.when u select local link did u go righ to the nfpse.xml and select it and not just the folder.also check the date on your nfpse.xml(or whatever one you use) after u run go.bat and make sure its been updated.

also did u download the mc2xml and put it in bin folder?
also the webgrab files need to be unzipped and put in programdata.

in nfps web grab folder you downloaded. I think it will download it if u don't but I downloaded it myself and put it there.
this is in go.bat
Code:
If exist mc2xml.exe goto 2
cls
Echo downloading mc2xml
echo
wget  --content-disposition http://originaldll.com/download/40275.exe
:2
if exist  mc2xml.exe goto 3
cls
echo Problem getting mc2xml.  Go to http://mc2xml.awardspace.info/ and download it and pace it in the bin folder.
goto end

Thx did all you suggested, but still an empty guide on both my g-box Q android tv and kodi running on windows 7 PC.
 
disable live tv,reset databases(both).exit kodi.
goto C:\Users\***YOUR USERNAMe**\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\Database
delete any tv and epg .db files
start kodi,enable live tv


***to see appdata folder u need to have show hidden folder enabled.
under view in file explorer select hidden items

Thx for the suggestion, but sorry still no EPG guide.. This happened a few days ago also and psycon had to fix something with the dummy files for the guide in the is.gd URL

EDIT: I disabled stalker PVR client and tried the simple PVR client integration with stalker video addon and it also will not load the guide using local or is.gd URL
 
oh ok.i still use the version with the dummy files.that could explain it.sec I upload it somewhere.

here version with the dummy files.has mc2xml already in bin folder.updated epg today so for a quick check purge databases n epg shud b there.
Code:

this with stalker client kodi 15 and works fine for me.

FYI, it looks like psycon is doing some work on github from about 3 hrs ago, so if you downloaded the files during that time, it looks like the guides won't work, probably missing the dummy.txt. There's enough info on this thread to figure out where to get missing stuff, but maybe its a good time to wait until psycon says things are stable.

Thx Dara for the update, but why doesn't the is.gd URL work either?
 
I know for sure that the NFPSE is not valid, but I didn't check the others yet. NFPSF isn't either... both missing the footer "</tv>"

The fix is to create a simple text file, named dummy.ftr with the following code:

Code:
</tv>

and put that file into the bin folder, then run everything again.

EPG wasn't working for me either. I saved the XML from Github and then added the </tv> like Dara said and saved it locally. Then changed the xml source from the url which redirects to github to the file saved locally and now I have the EPG working, but obviously it's static and won't update. So I guess this is good for something temporary.
