Integrated EPG lead time

[tankd0g]

Is the integrated EPG in 5.x hard wired to 2 days or can it be extended? I couldn't find anythng in the config file that looked like the switch. I was kinda used to having a weeks worth with the plugin.

yeah, look for "scheduling_lookahead=", "1209600000" is the max; about 12-14days.

The EPG should go about 2 weeks ahead, but Sage only schedules two days in advance.

Thanks.

Is there any way to change the scheduling range? I went out of town for 4 days the end of last year and came back to find that there were some recording conflicts that I didn't know about because they weren't reported until after I was already gone.

It is in the 2nd post, above. The time is in milliseconds. Be aware, though that if you increase this time, SageTV can take a lot longer to complete the schedule and may cause other performance issues. If you run into issues, SageTV support will ask that you set this value back to its default.

Ah... For some reason I was thinking that that was the EPG range, not the scheduling range.
