Guide Data

[PiX64]

I just went back into the video source setup and wanted to add a QAM tuner back into the mix, and i cannot get Sage to pull guide data from any source. When i go through the tuner setup the screen which prompts for the zipcode allows me to enter my zipcode, and then I get no results back.

am I missing something?

I did a quick search on the forums and didn't see anything off the bat..

I have done this many times before and actually had QAM cable data pop up without a problem.

Thanks for any thoughts

See this FAQ, which also has a link to the firewall FAQ so you can check your firewall ports.

And, have you tried adding an EPG plugin such as one for XMLTV? If so, check the epg/epg_import_plugin property in your sage.properties file & try removing it.

Thanks Opus. I will try that ASAP

It happened to me again. I went to try and mess around with QAM again, and now nothing.

When i go to add a new source and i get to the point where it asks me to put in my zipcode, i do. and then i get nothing back, i get a blank screen. I tried all suggestions above and none of them worked.

I did notice when deleting some poropeties particularly the epg_plugin that there was a few entires in there for WFE... either way i removed them and still didn't work. I also followed the FAQ and that didn't help either.

The only thing i didn't try, which I will admit i am a bit reluctant to try is to remove all my sources set one up with a different guide data, then re add...that just seems like it will cause me more headaches and possibly cause me to not get my tuners set back up...

Any ideas?

If you had WFE installed look for this line:

epg_import_plugin=uk.co.mdjcox.epgplugin.EPGPlugin

Make sure nothing follows the = sign if you're using the standard SageTV EPG.

Yeah i removed that entire line as opus suggested above. should i add back in the line as a blank property?

epg_import_plugin=

[gplasky]

Don't know if it matters but it is in the .properties by default.

k ill try it.

[PiX64]

So that sorta did the trick!

What i had to do is I actually had to disable the WFE plugin to get it to stop adding the link you mentioned to the epg_import_plugin. Once i disabled, all my guide data came back.

This could be a defect in the WFE..ill pm the developer to them him know.

Thanks for your help!
