AltEPG

When I click on on programme name in search results, I get the following:

Googling gives examples of other users experiencing this, but no real answers (and certainly nothing directed towards AltEPG).

I believe that I've correctly updated ui.itcl and ukgenre.js, but would appreciate a little guidance...

Does this happen for all or only some programmes? It may be that there are no genres set at all for a series and you've just been unlucky.

It seems to happen for all programmes (well, the couple of dozen or so that I've just tried)...

(Possibly related, possibly not - my GD Checker is also doing some odd things. Instead of getting nice tables full of coloured blobs, I'm just getting the column headings and the channel numbers and names)

I believe that a new version of GDchecker is coming "soon"

Here is my GetSAGenres from the ui module, for comparison. I've made an addition which includes the top-level genres too, but that shouldn't affect whether it works or not.

Code: Select all

proc GetSAGenres { } {
    global db

    set keys ""
    RetryTransaction {
        set dataset [db $db open /DataSet/GenreVersion]
        set genres [dbobj $dataset gettarget Data]
    }
    set incrsize 50
    foreach genrefsid $genres {
        regsub {/-1$} $genrefsid {} fsid
        set done 0
        set idx 0
        while {!$done} {
            RetryTransaction {
                set genre [db $db openid $fsid]
                set subgenres [dbobj $genre gettarget Child]
                set numsubs [llength $subgenres]
                if {$subgenres != ""} {
                    set maxcount [expr ($numsubs > $idx + $incrsize) ? ($idx + $incrsize) : $numsubs]
                    for {set i $idx} {$i < $maxcount} {incr i} {
                        set subgenre [dbobj $genre get Child $i]
                        set index [dbobj $subgenre get Value]
                        if {$index != 0 && [lsearch $keys $index] == -1} {
                            set vlabel [strim [dbobj $subgenre get Name]]
                            lappend keys $index
                            lappend vals $vlabel
                        }
                    }
                    if {$numsubs == $maxcount} {
                        set done 1
                    } else {
                        incr idx $incrsize
                    }
              # mrtickle added. It's a parent top-level genre. Save this, too!
         set vlabel [strim [dbobj $genre get Name]]
         set index [dbobj $genre get Value]
         lappend keys $index
         lappend vals $vlabel
          # mrtickle added
                } else {
                    set done 1
                }
            }
        }
    }
    return [list $keys $vals]
}


Also try shutting down tivoweb and starting from the command line ("./tivoweb console" in its directory), and check there aren't any errors when it starts up.

Update: This seems to happen if ANY of the stations in the list have no data. In my case I'd included Sky channel 327, Movies 24, in my custom list. You could edit the custom list in the code, or wait for Spitfire's hopefully soon release of an updated version which uses a config file.
