Always have (?) in offset channels

Hi,

I'm using the radiotimes.com and tvguide.co.uk ini files and have noticed that all channels where I was using an offset will have a (?) after each title?

Is this expected behaviour or is there a workaround?

Thanks in advance

Made this question time ago, the (?) is due to scrubbing. Your ini has to be checked, probably has something wrong, worst case an easy way is to run "sed" (exsist both for linux and windows) after you run webgrab:

sed -i 's/(?)//g' guide.xml

I already have the sed command thanks. I was trying to find out the root of the problem. Any idea how I figure out what's wrong with the offsets?

I'm getting it on some channels and then all channels that are offsets. I've upgraded the ini files to the latest versions. Running on Linux using mono.

I'll give examples of a few.

In this example Film4 is working but the offset is wrong:

<channel update="i" site="tvguide.co.uk" site_id="145" xmltv_id="Film4">Film4</channel>
<channel offset="1" same_as="Film4" xmltv_id="Film4 +1">Film4 +1</channel>

In this one just the main channel is wrong:

<channel update="i" site="tvguide.co.uk" site_id="716" xmltv_id="RTÉ Jr">RTÉ Jr</channel>

And in this one both are wrong:

<channel update="i" site="tvguide.co.uk" site_id="468" xmltv_id="POP">POP</channel>
<channel offset="1" same_as="POP" xmltv_id="POP+1">POP+1</channel>

Thanks in advance

Great, thanks for your help with this. I'll make the change and run a test today.

Did you test offset channels by any chance? It doesn't sound like from your description of the issue that this change would resolve that.

For me the solution of adding the delay worked perfectly. Thanks BlackBear

I only have one channel has that has question marks now: RTÉ One +1 which is not an offset channel. Not a big deal to have one channel not quite right.
