EPG Data has gone nuts

[OneThomas]

Is anyone having any issues with EPG data almost completely missing on some days ("No Data" on everything) mixed in with perfectly good data on others? I've just noticed this over the last couple of days - as a matter of fact I believe it started Thanksgiving day...

I am using 2 HDHR units for OTA Digital - they are now my only 4 tuners. I have never had a problem with guide data before (except for a few odd and unwatched OTA Digital channels), and all of a sudden in it wonkers. I have "No Data" on virtually eveything between 6:00 PM 11/27 to until 6:00 PM 12/04, then it stops again at 6:00 PM on 12/11 (but that may just be the normal cutoff period of 3 weeks, I believe).

I've scanned the forums, and see all the posts about "Digital OTA only" channels, but that is not my issue - EPG updates were working perfectly - and I have not changed anything recently.

BTW - I am using 60606 Chicago Digital Broadcast. The Guide just updated a few minutes ago - and 11/27 to 12/4 data is still missing. ODD!

Never mind folks. I screwed it up. I forgot that I replaced the WIZ.BIN file a few days ago because I had suspicions it was corrupted. A OTA channel missing ALL data was showing up in the history of every show in my Favorites. I thought the WIZ.BIN was corrupted - but getting rid of that channel cleared up the issue. I found this information that fixed things perfectly!

==========================================

Try the below suggestion from tech support. Note: If you have reverted to an older wiz.bin, it may be out of sync with the EPG update info in the properties file, requiring the below-mentioned property line deletions.

Close down SageTV and the service and open up your Sage.properties file. Try removing all the properties from the that file that have the string
'server_update_id' in them . Now run SageTV again.
