Yousty Thanks for the feedback and the donation...it's turning "cold" in San Diego (60 degrees) - so I'll be getting some more coffee!!

cabbresson Do you see the same info in Kodi and the Tvheadend web UI epg?

It could be that your Kodi epg is not updating if you have Kodi set to cache the epg in a local database.

Also, when you see a difference like that - if you rerun the internal grabber in tvheadend, does it update the tvheadend web ui epg?

zap2xml is not longer a working program due to changes on the website. You need to setup the new zap2epg addon:

Are you getting this error in the zap2epg log or for regular access to tvheadend webUI?

cabbresson · Mar 27th 2018

I'm only getting it when opening the settings for both of your zap2epg & tvheadend addons. The tvheadend webui works as normal. I upgraded tvheadend on two different Rpi's and it's happening on both. I'll try a new libreelec sd card install tonight and see if it happens there to.

**edit4ever** · Mar 27th 2018

cabbresson can you provide (or PM) me the zap2epg log? I would like to see which request is causing the error.

Obviously something changed in the TVH json responses...but I didn't see a commit that mentioned this.

------

update:

I have an RPi3 running the milhouse builds - but haven't updated it in awhile. I went ahead and installed an updated tvheadend server addon (9.0.114 from 3/26) and it broke my previous tvh installation. I had to completely uninstall tvh and delete my user settings. Then when I reinstalled the new tvh service addon - it worked fine. (albeit I had to setup everything again)

I think I remember this happening in the past where a tvh update caused an issue where the tvh service didn't recognized the user or group that was running the service, so it wouldn't work right without a reinstall.

If your doing a new install I'm thinking you won't see an issue. But I look forward to the update!

cabbresson · Mar 28th 2018

Here's the log from the upgraded system. Log Here I'll try removing from my test Pi3 and see if it's fixed.

update:

I removed TVheadend & zap2epg. Resetup both and I'm getting the same error unfortunately.

Can you try to run this (use your tvh ip address) from a web browser and post the response:

Code

http://127.0.0.1:9981/api/channel/grid?all=1&limit=999999999&sort=name&filter=[{"type":"boolean","value":true,"field":"enabled"}]

That's the call that's failing - it's trying to get the channel list from tvheadend.

cabbresson · Mar 30th 2018

edit4ever The channel list code worked fine. It asked for user & pass first. Code Output

Cool - that narrows it down. I assume you have entered your username/password in the zap2epg settings?

If so - then I will need to take a look and see if something changed in the way tvh or urlrequest handles the password/header info.

OK - I won't be able to test until this weekend, but now I know where to look. Thanks for the update!

cabbresson I'm not running into the same error using a username/password setup. However, my test system is running on an RPi3 using the Milhouse LE 9 builds and currently has Tvh 4.2.5-31 on it.

If you rollback your Tvh version, do you see the same issue?

I rolled back to TvH 4.2.3-20 - Tv-addon v8.2.112 and it works. Installed latest nightly TvH 4.3-1220 & Tvh-addon 8.2.444 and the error is back. One thing is that the HTSP Addon user and password works.
