Lack of any EIT guide info

Hello,

After 11 oclock on saturday I have not recieved any EIT data in
mythtv. I don't know if this issue actually happened a couple of
weeks back when I last updated and I've just been running with
previous listing data untill now, but it's all broken now.

I just get unknown for everything and every channel. I was tracking
svn without issues and I think the last time I upgraded was a couple
of weeks back at least. I didn't do anything to any of my config
option it just seems to have stopped picking up data. I don't really
know where to look since I didn't change anything. I tried pdating to
.22 final, which is not showing listing data but everything else is
working fine.

I ran a mythfilldatabase and the system status page under listing says
the result was successful and there is guide data until 2038-05-05
23:25. I don't know if that is related but it seems a bit weird
anyway.

Anyone have any ideas?

Cheers
Bob

First step, optimize_mythdb.pl

If you run your backend in a terminal with "-v all" do you see
anything similar to this?

PESPacket: Failed CRC check
0x66182710 != 0xc3bfa4b5 for StreamID = 0x70

Re: Lack of any EIT guide info [In reply to]

I didn't have the optimize_mythdb script.

I wasn't geting crc check errors, but I was getting lots of
Table './mythconverg/eit_cache' is marked as crashed and should be repaired

I was watching the frontend logging but for some reason it never
occurred to me to watch the back end logging.

So I repaied the table and I seem to have tv listings again, wooo!

Thanks for the help
Bob

Add optimize_mythdb.pl to a nightly cron job, and this (and other
oddness resulting from crashed DB tables) shouldn't happen again.

Cheers,
Nick

Might want to get it (and cron it) so this doesn't happen again. :)
