AltEPG

Have swapped my networked tivo over to the AltEPG and run through the setup.

I notice today that tivo does not seem to have made its daily call for EPG data.

Phone Status is:

Lst OK: Thu 26May 18:42
Lst try: Thu 26May 18:42
Sts: Succeeded
Next: Fri 27May 07:27
Guide data: Thu 9Jun

Tivo often reschedules calls for no apparent reason. Look in /var/log/tvlog or /var/log/Otvlog to find out what's happening. You might find lines like this:

Code: Select all

May 27 00:39:40 (none) tcphonehome[123]: called getTZ
May 27 00:39:40 (none) tcphonehome[123]: Time zone not set, assuming Pacific
May 27 00:39:40 (none) tcphonehome[123]: IsPrimeTime: tz_off = -8, now = 31137704, adj_hour = -8
May 27 00:39:40 (none) tcphonehome[123]: tcphonehome skipping call, its Prime Time
May 27 00:39:40 (none) tcphonehome[123]: ReschedCall: reason = 3, secSinceLast = 0, numFails = 0
May 27 00:39:40 (none) tcphonehome[123]: ReschedCall: reschedule during prime time
May 27 00:39:40 (none) tcphonehome[123]: setting next attempt at 1306470940 (Fri May 27 04:35:40 2011 )
May 27 00:39:40 (none) tcphonehome[123]: Resched Call: resched for 236 min; should happen at Fri May 27 04:35:40 2011


When it decides to actually make the call, you should see:

Code: Select all

May 27 07:32:44 (none) tcphonehome[123]: phonehome: recieved message. type = 30 subtype = 6
May 27 07:32:44 (none) tcphonehome[123]: Invoking TClient with arg


(Beware that timestamps in logs are GMT)

OK. Reason was previous call was too recent.

May 27 06:29:06 (none) tcphonehome[125]: Sending message to myself

May 27 06:29:06 (none) tcphonehome[127]: ReschedCall: Last call only 46004 secs. ago
May 27 06:29:06 (none) tcphonehome[127]: setting next attempt at 1306518246 (Fri May 27 17:44:06 2011 )
May 27 06:29:07 (none) tcphonehome[127]: Resched Call: resched for 675 min; should happen at Fri May 27 17:44:07 2011
May 27 06:29:07 (none) tcphonehome[127]: GetPostalCodeVersion - /PostalCode/01000 ServerVersion=6

Tivo finally made it's first AltEPG daily call at 2am this morning. Tivoweb says guide data up to 11th June but Tivo itself says guide data up to 29 May and is bombarding me with system messages about making a daily call or else. BBC1 listings go to 5th June so there is definitely EPG data past 29 May.

Bit confused.
Tivo is running on Tivo image (with LBA48 patch) via network.
