TV / Now - updates fetch wrong listings
« on: March 06, 2012, 02:17:44 »
Installed - 1.6.2 server and current (1/31/2012) Android client.

If I go to TV / Now, I see current and correct listings.  If I wait until program change times, the old / stale entries in the Now list will turn grey (expired).  When I scroll around the list, it appears that MCC client will try to refresh the grey entries with current program for the channel.  However, this refreshed program (and next program) is always wrong.

Looking at the time on the entry, it appears to be +7 hours in the future.  Coincidentally, I'm on US MST timezone (+7 hours).  It appears somehow that the client or server is doing something strange and fetching listings in the future, for these little refreshes.  If I leave the TV / Now screen, and re-enter (loading the entire list fresh), I will get correct data.

can you confirm this bug?

Hi, can't confirm this. Is there any time/timezone difference between your Android and the Windows computer?

Both devices show the correct time, and have a sane time zone configured.

Mh. The entries should update even if you don't touch the screen or scroll the list. They really only update on scrolling?

Scrolling doesn't really matter.  If the thing displayed on the screen goes out of date, it will refresh.  With the wrong data (as above, the data hours into the future).

Hi, two more questions. Are you shure that WMC loaded the complete guide from the internet? Is the "normal" WMC EPG showing the correct data? And in which timezone do you live?

Media Center is fine.  EPG works fine, 11 days of listings complete.  US Mountain Time (GMT-6, MDT at this time).  Problem seen before and after DST change.

OK, thanks. I will have another look to the code for this problem.

I hope that the upcoming v1.6.3 fixes that problem for you.

Only tested this a little, but looks better.  Thanks!
