No guide data arriving last couple of days

[TVFan]

I deleted these files using the Kodi File Manager hreynoso1. As psycon said, it's easier (now that I know how it's structured).

And the OS file manager failed to find a couple of them for some reason.

I had a little trouble deleting those 2 db files as well. Try deleting one, then exit Kodi, go back and delete the other. Make sure TV and PVR Stalker NFPS are disabled first. Next thing to try would be to use the operating system file manager to delete them.

where is the epd.db file at? tried everything you said but stuck on "importing guide from clients" Golden Premier 1

[TVFan]

On my system it's in Kodi>System>File manager>Profile Directory>Database and it's called epg11.db. I also had to delete the TV29.db file.

Your files may be named slightly differently.

Thanks psycon, I deleted both cache.xml and epg_xmltv.xml from pvr.stalker.nfps and everything is working fine again. I did not realize that pvr.stalker.nfps was a directory and so did not think to look inside. That's one of the things I love about IPTV: all the stuff you learn.

Thanks for helping me out with this and thanks for all the work you do on this very fun project.

Deleting the epg_xmltv.xml file is something I have to do frequently. I tend to leave kodi open all the time and use the same box to surf the web, etc, and when I get to blank data in the epg I delete that file; disable live tv; re-enable live tv, and voila! The fully populated epg.

I never clear my data/cache as I have tailored the pvr to show only 150 channels and made my own groups and don't want to keep doing that. On the rare occasion that the guide doesn't populate, I delete the epg11.db file and disable/enable live tv and that loads the guide.

Just an alternate viewpoint as this works for me every time.

thats odd behavior expatter.. you should not have to delete the epg cache. how often does it go blank, and are u using the 24 or 72 hour version of the guide.. also u using pvr.stalker or pvr.stalker.nfps
