More Schedules Direct Problems?

[RBraverman]

Ah .........

I'm getting - suddenly:

"Warning Channel Lineup Lost from EPG Server. The Lineup (mine) no longer exists on the EPG Server. The guide will no longer be updated."

I've not seen anything on SD's forums, so I ask here.

I do have some guide data, but I haven't messed with it until I know what's up (I'm ACTUALLY playing this smart eh?).

I know SD is having some upstream issues but the last I heard you should be getting seven days of data.

Read the end of this thread. http://forums.schedulesdirect.org/vi...880b5&start=10

The thread is closed to comments, but it is being updated daily.

Yeah, I know, I already went through that as did most, but I've been fine since Friday pm/Saturday am. Then this, this morning.

I've sent in a ticket at SD, but I'm curious if something just died on my end, or it's something else and there are others here that are having a problem, even if it were a network problem on my end, I wouldn't think I'd get this sort of error.

Don't worry, not just you, started up for me this morning as well. For me it's a Cox Communications lineup. I get a new message alert about it every minute, had to shut off pushover updates.

Thanks. I suppress duplicate messages - had 39 last time I looked.

They still don't have anything on their website about it yet.

Can you let me know when you are back. I'm a little annoyed that here isn't even a mention, in passing, of this.

Same here

Is this likely due to the problems SD is having? I decided to start using the Scheudules Direct listings today for my Shaw Direct Satellite.

Problem: only about half the channels were available after the lengthy upload. This isn't good, especially since we're two weeks from Sage EPG shutdown....

Anyone else using Shaw Direct Classic East channel map?

Oh, and to make matters worse, when I tried to go back to the SageTV EPG, I was told "there was an error connecting to the EPG server....blah blah you're screwed now..." (well, not actually the last bit)

Anyone seeing this as well?

yep, still happening to me for DirecTV. Over 1100+ system messages and counting:

Channel Lineup Lost from EPG Server

Warning Message Details

The lineup "DIRECTV San Francisco - Satellite - San Francisco (sdepg)" no longer exists on the EPG server. Updates to this lineup will no longer occur.

I don't really get why SageTV is so aggressive about running the EPG update process. I think one retry on failure per hour would be more than sufficient. The number you're seeing rack up is the result of each update attempt. Also you shouldn't be seeing that error unless Schedules Direct actually indicated that the lineup is deleted.

I'm getting this error too on both my Cable and OTA lineups. They seem to exist on the SD site although the OTA one has a slightly different name, ("Local Broadcast Listings" vs. "Local Over the Air Broadcast").

We normalize the name in SageTV because when you select a lineup it says one thing and when you see what is added to your account it reads something else for OTA. I do not know why they don't just say the same thing, but that's why you're seeing what you see.

So it 'appears' the 'upstream fix' worked. I'm back up. Would have been nice for something to be said on their site though.

I *think* mine is working again too, no more errors anyway. Have programming now on DirecTV through 6/26. Filed a ticket with SD last night and they got back to me this morning saying all should be well now.

They DID say something. Look again at the link I gave you yesterday in post #2 above. I'll give it to you again. http://forums.schedulesdirect.org/vi...880b5&start=10

See the last post at 11:31am today.

I am missing data on 573 ? Shorts TV after 56 days and 2 others I can not remember at the moment.
Wait till tomorrow morning and a refresh to see.

If you're missing a station, please open a ticket at the Schedules Direct website so that we can confirm if this is an issue with our upstream.
