Thanks, -Michael -- -- ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users I'm the guy that was having the problem, so here's the fix I'm using successfully: edit the mythtv source for mythtv/programs/mythfilldatabase/filldata.cpp For me it's line 2875, but I'm not using a current cvs version. Do a search for "%d 18" (minus quotes) and replace the 18 with 21. Unfortunately I have to do this for every cvs update I make, but once done I no longer have problems. Sure some newly added days to the schedule have NO DATA after 9pm, but it updates it when there is data, so it never gets to the point that I have NO DATA on the current day. Thanks, I'll give that a try. If this works out for me, I'll see if something like this is in the current svn code. If it isn't, I'll make a patch that lets the 18 value be overridden with a command line argument and see if it gets accepted. -Michael ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Follow the directions for a normal svn checkout of the source. Then just use "svn update" from that point forward. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

No you don't as long as you do an update not a checkout. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Is anyone else seeing this? Did zap2it change the number of days of data that they carry? If you have data for some channels then, no, zap2it has not changed the number of days they carry. The likely explanation is that the channels with missing data have not provided zap2it (or the people they get it from) with the data. That makes sense. I get missing and even incorrect data for some channels, often the independent ones, if I look towards the end of the available range. For me, I just don't look that far into the future, and by the time those days get refreshed the info has been updated/corrected. The problem is that 90% of the channels are missing. It's pretty much divided by local affiliates have data, the common cable channels do not. Once mythfilldatabase gets *some* data for a day, it does not update it again until the day before, and most of the shows I record play between 8pm and midnight, so this doesn't give the scheduler too many options when there are conflicts, since it only has two days of data (today and tomorrow) to look at. I'll see if my '--maxday 10' trick helps. I guess I find it odd that if I'm not getting all of the 14th day of Comedy Central, no one else is seeing this either. It had been working, so I'm assuming it is not my configuration. Another possibility I suppose is the time that mythfilldatabase runs? I have it run between 2-3AM. I'm wondering if I pull it back before midnight, the furthest out day will not get borked. But that would just be the equivalent of pulling one fewer days. Thanks for the suggestions. -Michael ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

One way to eliminate, say, a myth parsing bug would would be to download the full zap2it XML file and look to see if the data is missing in there :) I would bet that it is. -- aaron ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
