EPG not displaying - Dimension - 2024-11-06

OS: Ubuntu
Jellyfin version: 10.10.1

I am attempting to setup live TV with an EPG. I have the channels working but I cannot seem to get the EPG portion to display. I am using IPTVBoss to create the XML file which I export into Dropbox and then using the Dropbox link I enter that into the EPG setup within Jellyfin. The problem is that when I view the guide section within Jellyfin it displays the channel logos but does not display what is playing on the channel. Looking at the XML file it does have the information in it to the best of my knowledge.

I have attached my log file.

I only have guide data through straight XMLTV, but I have to manually map the guide data to a channel. I think you have to do the same with EPG.

When I look at the mapping I do see the check mark next to the correct channel name which you can see here - https://ibb.co/MDnVcSW
Here is what I am seeing when I look at my EPG - https://ibb.co/z5HMqs0

That looks right. And, reinspecting your log, the channels you do have look like they were mapped. 5384 channels in the EPG, 460 mapped.

You said you inspected the EPG XML, but can you verify that the dates in it are current?

Thanks for the suggestion for that appears to have possibly be the issue. I looked at my file and the time stamp on them is in an odd format but appeared to be incorrect. I synced up my EPG source within IPTVBoss and then preformed an a new export. This time when I look at the EPG it is populated with the show information for at least the channels that I have populated so far within IPTVBoss.

Since the EPG appears to be now working I have discovered a new problem. When I first open the guide all of the information lines up correctly as you can see here. https://ibb.co/5jBnMyB
After click on a channel and watching it for a minute then clicking the back arrow to go to the guide page everything is off as you can see in this screen shot. https://ibb.co/94YY85C

For some reason it appears as if the slider bar is backing to the 11AM hour instead of staying on the 11:30 section as seen in the first image.

I don't think the TV Guide will ever show past data. It will always show the latest 30 minute block and onward.


RE: EPG not displaying - Dimension - 2024-11-06

Sorry, I did not clarify my issue properly. After viewing a channel and leaving that channel the guide is automatically moving back that 30 mins rather than updating to the current/correct time section. If I refresh by web browser it will display correctly.

Browser caching, most likely. The bane of dynamic web apps.
