I use the output in my TVScheduler Pro which is now showing no entries whatsoever.

Many thanks.

Great utility BTW!

sorry i missed a file from the packaging you can download it from https://www.birtles.org.uk/svn/xmltv/co ... tities.lua and save it to the lib directory. Version 3.12 should be unaffected

I managed to find the username and password for the download..... :oops:

Anyway, I downloaded and saved the file to the Lib directory. That has resolved the first issue, but the others remain....

do you need all those post processors active?
ukrt_altchids_text is complaining that it cant find the mapping file specified

Don't know whether I need them or not; I'll have a look. Even so, I've been running those for a number of years without any problem. It's just recently happened which coincided with the zero sized message from RT. But as RT appears to be up today, these errors appear to be not related to that. It all worked hunky-dory until recently.

Anyway:........ I unchecked all the post-processors and it ran through fine. Thanks! All back to normal!
