[EPG] OTA EPG Grabber only grabs one satellite while multiple are configured

Added by ZZD M about 8 years ago

Setup:
- TVHeadend 4.1-2309~g0736ebc~xenial
- Single DVB-S tuner
- DiSEqC rotor configured for 4 satellites (Astra 19.2E, Astra 23.5E, Astra 28.2E and Hotbird 13.0E)

Issue description:
I'd like to fetch the EPG data with the OTA EPG grabber so I manually click the button to trigger the OTA grabber. But I notice that TVHeadend only runs through the muxes of the Astra 28.2E satellite. It never completes the ones for the other 3 satellites. I can see from the logs that it tries to start for Astra 19.2E, but then it stops shortly after the first mux (at least that's what I think is happening, correct me if I'm wrong).

Log snippet:

From this I understand that 465 muxes are scheduled and it counts down whenever one is completed. Just as a side note here, I've got the EPG scan timeout set to 30 seconds, because else it takes forever to complete one mux, not sure if that's OK as well?...

So far so good, but then when the next satellite is up (Astra 19.2E) I get this:

The number of pending muxes drops to 0 and besides the single mux of 10743.75H on Astra 19.2E, nothing else is being scanned on that satellite. Furthermore, the other 2 remaining satellites aren't even started.

This makes me wonder, could this be a bug or is it possible I'm missing something in my setup/configuration which prevents OTA EPG working properly for multiple satellites?

If you've set the orbital position for the network remove it & see if that solves the problem, if not you'll have to create a network for each satellite & set the position.

RE: [EPG] OTA EPG Grabber only grabs one satellite while multiple are configured - Added by ZZD M about 8 years ago

An orbital position was set for every network, removing it didn't fix the issue. Now I'm trying again with newly defined networks.

RE: [EPG] OTA EPG Grabber only grabs one satellite while multiple are configured - Added by ZZD M about 8 years ago

Just finished re-adding the networks, re-scanning and also with the orbital position set correctly (although it was already before). But the same issue is still seen. Only now it goes over the Astra 19.2E muxes, probably because that network was added first. After those are finished, the other satellites aren't touched for EPG grabbing.

As can be seen below, the number of muxes pending changes to 0 after the Astra 19.2E satellite is finished.
