Well that sucks. I had a nice performance increase switching from Jarvis to Krypton on my Fire devices. I'll just deal with it til Krypton is finaled.

xman0980 see if you can load this modded 1 day epg. [CODE]http://www.filedropper.com/epg1day_1[/||||CODE] If so, then I would think you don't have enough RAM available.

Same thing.
Something musta happened on my end because when I was messing with it the other day it wasnt erroring out.

I ran in to a little snag today. I have my own guide with an online link. I was trapped between 8 and 10 am in my epg. Quite frustrating. Turned off Kodi. Restarted PC. Reset TV and guide data multiple times. Disabled Stalker PVR and deleted online xml link. Tried the viper guide. Deleted the TV and EPG databases. Nothing. Finally I turned off local caching in stalker PVR settings and it worked! Wondering what others do with this setting. Kodi 16.1 & windows 10. Also decided to play with webgrabberplus+. Failed to install using install.bat. Now I'm off to read in that forum. I'm happy with mc2xml and SD, but curious about what else is out there. I would like to see dates, particularly with movies.

Since I have the majority of tv channels 'hidden', I NEVER reset the tv database as that wipes out all my customizations and drives me NUTZ! I am relatively comfortable and happy with mc2xml but have used webgrab+ in the past. Well, I played with it a bit. Now that Blackbear is back I may delve into it again. I am mostly interested in the post processing aspect to cut out some extraneous crap and cut down file size. I like to have the year as well. Season and Episode is good, too.

On the mc2xml site there is an app called sed and some users have added their own bits that they use and I am learning about that. So far...no dice, but I'll get there. I would like to change the * for new programs to [New] but it hasn't worked yet but I know when I see an * that it is new to that channel. I can't do a search and replace in the xml because of shows like M * A * S * H.

In the meantime, hang in there and keep on truckin, lol.

I keep going back to 'this is a hobby' and not a career; or even work. I don't want to begin to hate it because then I'll just quit and use Vipers's guide. (not really) :)

Oh, and I don't cache a local copy nor do I cache to the database; mostly not to the database because I have been making lots of tweaks and I don't want to have to keep deleting the database.

I've reworked and tweaked my epg a bit and added some of the Canada channels. Will be adding my new chl and ren files that I streamlined thanks to Blackbear's posts about adding lineups to Schedule's Direct website. I also wrote the batch file to make it idiot-proof. But, since I'm an idiot, it's still not quite right. I think I have dupes but can't check it out until tomorrow.

Here's my latest 150 hour epg:

[CODE]http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=18892271251401774387[CODE]

I'm certain I've done something wrong since the file size is 47 MB

The automation works but the sed commands have yet to do anything. Tomorrow is another day.
