Angry A Very Un-Merry Christmas!

Hey Guys!

This has to be the most time-consuming month ever for epgStream.net! We've had cause to believe D44-ACC bumped off Channels 7SD, 7HD, 9SD and 9HD off ... We've had 7HD listing tweaks and finally yesterday we had multiple missing channel data from a few states around Australia and not to mention ISP issues!

We were happy when we diagnosed the most recent missing multi-channel data issue and were busy reloading the data when *ZAP*, power off, lights off and non-UPS servers off. Now the only server without UPS just happens to be our epgStream.net Guide Database server, which after reboot proceeded to direct us to database restore from last month.

The long-and-the-short of it is we're rolling forward the last 3 weeks worth of data and re-generating the guides for this week (then performing a backup ). If you notice any guide channel data issues after about midday today let us know and it might have been something we missed in the restore.

You'll find a picture of us somewhere in here ...


Thanks,

Re: A Very Un-Merry Christmas!

What exactly is the D44-ACC channel? - I've seen it mentioned in a few theads, and I've also seen it available in the Free*EPG feed - but (at least in WA) we don't have that channel, so I'm not sure why it's listed in the WA feed.

Re: A Very Un-Merry Christmas!

Hey Guys!

All is [kinda] at peace in the guide world again ... Free*EPG has been rolled forward, guide data is being generated and backup schedule changed to weekly!

The only change we didn't recover was our "What's New?" guide category, but we'll re-activate that sometime on the weekend.

Do a manual guide download now and you'll be able to schedule "Leprechaun 4: Space Platoon" on 7HD!


Thanks,

I just found this site: Digital Forty Four which says "...exclusive to Australia's biggest city, Sydney..." - so I would expect it to be included in the NSW listings only.

Hi!

We we under the impression this was an all-state channel! Looks like we've been spreading too much of the "good word" around Australia.


Thanks,

Re: A Very Un-Merry Christmas!

Hmmm.. EPG playing up. Noticed over the last few weeks that several program entries across all channels are replaced with a ? (question mark). Am using Oztivo listings in Central Vic postcode 3550. Thought I would try FreeEPG listing instead but now I get a Critical Process Failure reported by MC. The guide download fails with a File Validation error - mismatched guide package error 20. This is happening for both Oztivo and FreeEPG.
Any ideas?

Re: A Very Un-Merry Christmas!

Using postcode 5000, I don't get any guide data at all for SBS. Everything else seems to be fine.
