Hi
I’ve been comparing Guide data between the old Gracenote guide and the new “Powered by Plex” guide for Ireland Saorview OTA. Mostly it looks fairly comparable. New guide seems to have fewer “unknowns” and more actual series/episode numbers.
The only significant regression I’ve seen is the the new guide data for RTE Junior contains one program running for 12 hours at a time, where the Gracenote guide contained (some) actual programs. See this example for primetime Thursday:
Gracenote:
Plex:
Ireland guide data seems to have regressed badly since I was looking at it last week:
Note, I am in a different timezone to this server. So these are the primetime schedules starting from 7pm Irish Standard Time, Monday 1st July.
RTE1, RTE2, TG4, RTEjr have no individual program data
This is from a recently re-set DVR (Ref: PlexTV Server can no longer see HDHomerun tuner - #65 by mcmlxxvi), using Saorview OTA.
Is there a clue to the cause of the issue in the dates?
In the screenshot above:
RTE 1 Programming 7/10/19
RTE 2 Programming 7/8/19
TG4 7/6/19
RTEjr 7/9/19
@sa2000, I’ve seen your response (UK Channel Issues - 19 DAVE / 25 YESTDAY) that the blocks of generic entries are being corrected this afternoon. Does it apply to the Ireland channels as well?
That would apply to other countries as well - seen for UK and Spain and Portugal. So it be for Ireland as well.
An issue with dates showing as future dates is being fixed
Thanks
The issue of having long periods in the grid of “xxxxx Programming” should be fixed. The data has been purged and the cache should have expired now. It needs a full manual Guide refresh to resolve
The earlier channel lineup corrections need a DVR Deletion and re create (after a minute or two after delete) to pick up - please try to pick the Freeview OTA Broadcast lineups as these are the ones that have been addressed
