homerti Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Hi there, I am using DVBViewer together with DVBLink for MCE integration. However, there is a problem with version 4.2.1, as epg.dat file gets really big if generated by DVBLink. This results in strange epg for some channels, and slow MCE response. For that reason, I am currently using DVBViewer 4.0, as this is the one that I downloaded before I upgraded to 4.2.1. It would be good if you can put 4.1.1 back to the list of downloads, as by the information from the DVBLink forum, this one didn't have this problem. Furthermore, it would be even better if you can check what might have caused this problem, and maybe have a fix in 4.3.1, if possible. Thank you for your feedback. Quote
Devastation Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 if you can put 4.1.1 back to the list of downloads No chance, only the version(s) available in the downloadsector. Other older versions wont be re-upped. as epg.dat file gets really big if generated by DVBLink. ......... it would be even better ... have a fix in 4.3.1, if possible. Looks more like have to be fixed in DVBLink? Is DVBLink creating the EPG or DVBV? Quote
homerti Posted January 6, 2010 Author Posted January 6, 2010 OK, then i guess I would have to continue using 4.0. DVBLink is using DVBViewer's epg.dat file but the problem is that, for some reason, it is growing enormous when epg generation triggered by DVBLink (90 Megs). Now, I am just a user of DVBLink also, and in their forums they are pointing out that since version of DVBViewer 4.2.1, epg is behaving weird (the same thing that was working before). And true, when I came back to 4.0 (using the same version of DVBLink), it is ok again... Quote
Devastation Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 (edited) Maybe you take a look at the 4.2.1 Changelog especially the chapter EPG Parsing. There are some changes thats right. But that changes are necessary for advancing DVBViewer. Maybe the DVBLink developers adjust their prog to avoid problems. Edited January 6, 2010 by Devastation Quote
