Nvidia Shield - XMLTV Output

I'm setting up an Nvidia Shield as a Channels DVR server and I'm trying to export an m3u and xmltv . The m3u exports without any issues. However, I can't get the xmltv to export correctly.

I'm using this address to see the xlmtv:
http://192.168.50.194:8089/devices/ANY/guide/xmltv?duration=500000*

When I look at that page, I get this and more. When I check the same page for my Synology NAS Channels DVR, I get a correct xmltv output. Any ideas why the Nvidia Shield isn't outputting a correctly formatted xmltv?

Which part is incorrect or different?

What is that * after the 500000

Ignore that. The "*" was added by mistake in my post.

I get this return from my Synology NAS running Channels DVR. The output xmltv from the Shield looks much different than from the Synology. I can pull the epg from the Shield into the Synology NAS Channels DVR instance via Custom Channels and into Tivimate, but I cant pull the guide xlmtv data into either.

Within the Channels DVR settings for the Nvidia Shield, I get guide data. It's there for the stations I want. But the export for some reason is not correct.

They are the same the only difference is one is parsed by the Browser and the other one isn't.... If you wait long enough on the synology XMLTV it will parse it.

Interesting. Then I guess my next question is, if I'm importing the xmltv from the Shield to the Synology and Tivimate, how come I'm not seeing the guide data?

You should delete the guide database and recreate it to get the guide data from the XMLTV.

Can you also post a screenshot the M3u settings from the synology ?

these are mine for my synology ...

Here's two screen shots. One shows how I see the channels, but I get now guide data. The second shows my settings


You are ignoring the channels from the M3U you do not want to do that Check your settings. Mine says Prefer Channels-number from M3U. Then delete the guide DB for the Synology and recreate it...
