I noticed the red EPG icon a couple of days ago. Log shows that the system was unable to create the MXF file. Saw prior posts indicating that this is a problem with the file downloaded from Schedules Direct.
When I try to login to SD through the EPG123 GUI Configuration the app says it was unable to retrieve a token from SD.
Saw this post on SD:
October 1st 2022
SD-JSON images now require tokens
Effective 2022-10-01, the Schedules Direct service will be requiring that the user token be presented for most interaction with our servers. If you are running NextPVR v6 or EPG123 v1.7.1.8 or higher then this will re-enable image downloads.
If you are a developer, please check the updated API documentation. You may also contact grabber@schedulesdirect.org if you would like to have your requests steered to a “debug” server while you are testing the addition of the token to your code
I have the latest EPG installed (1.7.1.12).
Assistance would be appreciated.
Not getting guide updates, unable to login to SD through GUI Configuration

You should post your trace.log file to get help.
That change at SD, in and of itself, should not prevent the MXF file from being created, it is related to image downloads which the EPG123 server/client does not do when it does the daily guide download.

HTPC Specs:
I guess 2 things possible. Either your version of Newtonsoft.Json.dll is the wrong version, or your .NET Framework is not at least 4.6.2.
Did you use the setup file (which would have installed .NET 4.6.2 if you had something older) or the portable version which does not check the framework version?

I used the portable version: I unzipped the latest download file and copy/pasted to replace the older version. I will install the latest .NET and will give it another go. Thanks for the speedy reply.garyan2 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 04, 2022 6:36 am I guess 2 things possible. Either your version of Newtonsoft.Json.dll is the wrong version, or your .NET Framework is not at least 4.6.2.
Did you use the setup file (which would have installed .NET 4.6.2 if you had something older) or the portable version which does not check the framework version?

HTPC Specs:
Download the installation package from https://garyan2.github.io.
Run the setup file and be sure to point to your current epg123 location to overwrite the existing files.
(Recommended) Rename the 'epg123\cache' folder to 'cache_old' to delete later. This will avoid a very long wait time for the new epg123 version to delete each individual file during the first update.
Open the EPG123 configuration GUI... it should log in automatically. If not, you installed it in the wrong place.
Go to the 'Scheduled Task' tab, delete your existing task and create a new one.
Click [Save & Execute] to run an update.
That should be it.
There have been a lot of improvements since 1.2.0 and I think you will find that the updates are much, much faster using a single cache file rather than thousands of individual files.
Run the setup file and be sure to point to your current epg123 location to overwrite the existing files.
(Recommended) Rename the 'epg123\cache' folder to 'cache_old' to delete later. This will avoid a very long wait time for the new epg123 version to delete each individual file during the first update.
Open the EPG123 configuration GUI... it should log in automatically. If not, you installed it in the wrong place.
Go to the 'Scheduled Task' tab, delete your existing task and create a new one.
Click [Save & Execute] to run an update.
That should be it.

HTPC Specs:
One thing I would change is the time you have it scheduled to run, midnight it probably a very busy times for the servers. I would try a time later in the night and not on the hour (minutes should not be 00), something like 4:18am or 5:48am, etc.
As for the errors, Gary would have to respond, as I am not familiar with these errors, but to me it looks like a server problem (could be related to it being too busy due to the time you are trying to update).
EDIT: Another reason for these errors could be if you have more than one client (EPG123 or otherwise) using the Schedules Direct (SD) server at the same time, if they are both set to update at midnight, they would conflict with each other (you can only have one client connecting to SD at a time).
EDIT2: Oops, looks like Gary snuck in there and responded while I was doing the above edit, yeah, I completely missed that you were talking about two separate systems, so having them run at the same time is the problem.

HTPC Specs:
For machine B, you will need to upgrade EPG123 to the latest version.
For machine A, the error is due to you running machine B at the same time. You can only have 1 active token at a time, so what happened was machine A got a token and then machine B got a token which invalidated machine A's token. It was therefor forbidden access to SD since its token was no longer valid.
So you can perform a manual guide update using the [Save & Execute] on machine A and it should complete.
Update machine B to the latest EPG123 and use the [Save & Execute] to update its guide.
I would strongly recommend you change one of the machines to be client only; otherwise you will run into a problem downloading images due to the limit of a single token. Each time one of the machines tries to download an image, and if the other machine has invalidated its token, it will have to request a new one.

I've been running this config for many years with no problems. The second machine was a clone of the first, with just a name change.
Occasionally I run one episode of epg123.exe by itself, which I guess means no token problem. And it fails too.
I don't know how to set up one machine as client only.

I could probably stumble my way through explaining how to change one of your WMC machines from "Full mode" to "Client mode" but it's probably best to wait for Gary, as I've never done it before.grittree wrote: ↑Tue Oct 04, 2022 5:13 pm I've been running this config for many years with no problems.

I'm guessing the first step is to upgrade EPG123 on both systems to the latest version. I'm not sure if you can convert one of the systems from "Full mode" to "Client mode" as part of the install of the new version, or if that is better to do before you upgrade or after you upgrade...

HTPC Specs:
Thinking about it, it is fine to have both setup as 'Full Mode'. It is just inefficient and you risk not being able to download images for a time.
Having 2 machines running in full mode, you will download the same data from SD twice. When downloading data and images, the 2 machines will fight for a token but my proxy/cache service will do a good job refreshing the tokens on each machine... the problem is if you are scrolling through the guides on both machines at the same time downloading images. Each machine would have to continuously request new tokens. I don't know if SD will lock an account if it requests too many tokens within any time period. There is also the issue of being limited to 5000 image downloads in a 24 hour period; just something to be aware of. Caching images on both machines will help limit your risk.
If you setup a machine in client mode, the server/full mode machine will have to always be on, so that should be a factor in your decision. It is any easy one for me since I have a server running 24/7.

At the very least, if you are going to keep both machines in full mode, you should change the times they update to be different from one another and also not a time that ends with 00 (so it is not on the hour).
To change this you will have to use EPG123 to delete the task, then change the time, then create the task again.

Same issue for me. Red for about 6 days now. Did not change anything. Will try changing update time to not end in :00. Seem like a lot of stuff in flux now, with no one really sure what is happening at SD etc. so I am reluctant to simply install an update. Have seen may days of red in the past that somehow got sorted without my doing anything..............

Nothing is in flux. You're going to be staring at that red icon until you update to a version of 1.7.1.8 or higher.

So I upgraded machine B to the latest epg123. It works! Happy I have one with up to date guide.
Machine A still doesn't work. It creates the MXF file, but doesn't process it into WMC. Now guide ends 10/9.
The only thing different I can think of is I updated A to ndp48 before epg123Setup_v1.7.1.12.
I now rolled A back to 9/26 and created a clone of that. Haven't quite decided what to do next, but some version of V1.7. I still don't understand about client and server, but I see doing the update is where you choose.
I appreciate the help given so far.
