Samsung TV Plus for Channels

The guide data for Pluto TV and Samsung TV+ are gone again.

2023/02/10 02:42:33.502341 [DVR] Fetched guide data for XMLTV-SamsungTVPlus in 0s
2023/02/10 02:42:33.576391 [DVR] Indexed 0 airings into XMLTV-SamsungTVPlus (242 channels over 0s) + 1960 skipped [0s index]

Seems to indicate the data in the xmltv file is out of date (for past only)

I just submitted a case on github for @matthuisman . I am using the docker method but my epg.xml matches the online version 100% so i think something must be going on...

The docker just downloads the online version

Is anyone else having a guide problem besides me? I compared my cached copy to the one online and it is stale. Unless I am doing something wrong

I just checked and my guide is also empty.
I'm using the URL in the custom channel (not docker).

I have been having guide issues for the past two days. It's not just for Samsung TV. Pluto TV is also not working. Both worked for a short time yesterday. Then they stopped working again overnight.

Mine's toast. Win10 server, no Docker.

[edit] then 5 minutes later after I turned off the guide data refresh as a test it's working again.

I'm not using Samsung+, but have had no issues with Pluto (using the docker).
Just added Samsung+ to test and I get a few hours of guide data.

Pluto TV (non docker) just started working again. Samsung TV+ (non docker) is still not working.

Both Pluto TV and Samsung TV+ (non docker) are working for me.

Mine appears to download as well. It just doesn't populate the guide.

Are you using this link https://i.mjh.nz/SamsungTVPlus/us.xml.gz for the XMLTV Guide Data?

Meaning no new guide data downloaded

vs mine that works
(242 channels over 8h0m0s)

No. I just changed it to that and it is now working again. Strange. I didn't have gz on it before.

Should still work,
gz just means it is gzipped to take up less bandwidth downloading

Oh yea. I understand that. I just don't know why it decided to break now. I will switch the other one too. Thanks for you help.

Doesn't work for the playlist us.m3u8 if that's what you mean.
You can see the available ones here Index of /SamsungTVPlus/
