[vdr] Max days of EPG stored/shown in VDR

2014-06-20 Thread René

Hi,

Does VDR have some sort of limit on how many EPG-days are shown/stored 
VDR? I use xmltv to pull more complete epg-info, and i feed it to vdr 
with the xmltv2vdr-plugin. For some reason i get only epg shown up in 
vdr for the last 6,5 days, even if xmltv pulls more days like 14days or 
more.. :-(

Normally VDR deletes events that have expired (i.e. where the end time is in 
the past).
The Parameter "Setup/EPG/EPG linger time" can be used to specify a time (in 
minutes)
for which old EPG events shall be kept in the list.

Why would you want to have days old EPG events in the first place?

Hi,
I'm looking for storing future epg-data for more than 6,5 days. With 
xmltv i can get up to one month of epg-data into vdr, but vdr is cutting 
this to 6,5 days

You wrote "i get only epg shown up in vdr for the *last* 6,5 days".

There is no limit to future EPG events. For instance, on some channels I get
up to 4 weeks of EPG events. Maybe something goes wrong when importing data
from xmltv.

Re: [vdr] Max days of EPG stored/shown in VDR -> xmltv2vdr-plugin

2014-06-20 Thread René
Sorry for messing up my message and not being clear :-) Having a 2,5 
year old kid running around makes it difficult to write a message and 
also understand what i'm writing ;-)


I'll check if i can find what i'm doing wrong.. The xml-file with 
tv-info is from today to 5.7.2014, so the problem has to be in the 
xmltv2vdr-plugin..


Unfortunately this plugin has a pretty unclear documentation that i 
don't understand to 100%. For example, why should need to register 
finnish tv-stations to the EPG-serner's list found on 
http://vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Xmltv2vdr-plugin...


I'll post later on a new topic regarding this plugin :-)
