EPG cluetip bug

Hi!

 

I'll keep posting these potential bugs despite there's probably no receiver able to do anything about it for quite some time. So here it goes anyway:

I came upon a case when bringing up the EPG cluetip, which is used on Timeline/TV Guide/Channel EPG, where the cluetip fails to find any content.

I then looked up the EPG source which is a XMLTV standard document imported to RS by XEPG. There was no errors among the nodes that I could see, which could explain the anomaly. The show in question is a re-run. First broadcast of the show was aired this morning, which cluetip displays just fine. I could then compare the nodes from the morning show with the ones for the show that fails.

 

<programme start="20130718061500 +0200" stop="20130718071500 +0200" channel="TV8">

<title lang="sv">Oprah Winfrey show</title>
<desc lang="sv">Amerikansk pratshow från 2010. Ricky Martin gör sin första tv-intervju efter att ha kommit ut ur garderoben. För alla runt omkring honom verkade det som att han levde det goda livet, men allting var byggt på en lögn. Hör honom berätta om hur sanningen förändrade hans liv. Säsong 25. Del 1136.</desc>
<date>2010</date>
<episode-num system="onscreen">S25E1136</episode-num>
</programme>

The only difference is the failing show has tiny more text in the description marked in red. This deviant shouldn't affect the cluetip in any way and I could therefor rule out it's a source problem. The error could have been brought by XEPG during import to EPG.dat. Checking the XEPG log it reports success when the import was done:

 

2013-7-13 18:47:03 OSD Message: Import EPG Finished
2013-7-13 18:47:03 OSD Message: Success!

 

 

Never seen this error before and have used same XEPG version for almost two years now, so I highly doubt problem lies there. Only conclusion one can make is there must be a bug in the cluetip html/js/jquery somewhere, triggering some kind of exception which render this error.

 

Here's my epg.dat
